One of the former fab four, the glamorous [tag]Ringo Starr[/tag], just recently released his 14th solo album, Liverpool 8. The video for the title track couldn’t be more plain, much like the rest of song, fact that disappointed me a bit, as I had higher expectations then kinder garden level rhymes. Watch out for the Dave Stewart cameo too.
New We Are Scientists video: ‘After Hours’
Weird videos are not a novelty for us, from behalf of duo [tag]We Are Scientists[/tag], but this time, with their latest single “After Hours,” confused is a light word. In short Keith is having a dinner in three with band mate Chris and his girl friend; Chris then is entranced by Keith’s dalmatian dog, which causes him to pet him and play games with him. Keith grows gelos and smacks Chris silly and play with…
New Morcheeba video: ‘Enjoey The Ride’
The electro infused UK duo of [tag]Morcheeba[/tag], are preparing for their sixth release, their first one without long time front lady Skye Edwards, titled Dive Deep. Left without a vocal lead, the duo was forced to collaborate with various non-permanent artists like Thomas Dybdahl, Cool Calm Pete etc, that although brought a fresh dose of music, caused Morcheeba not to sound Morcheeba anymore. Such is the case with “Enjoy The Ride,” featuring vocals from the…
The Radiohead Webcast: live from 93 Feet East London
Things took an unexpected turn last night, when [tag]Radiohead[/tag] was forced to switch venues, due to large amount of people attending the gig. Big surprise there. Thus, the band switched from the initial Rough Trade East, to 93 Feet East (that’s the actual name), catching everybody, especially the club manager, by surprise. The show itself, was, according to attendants, “nothing short of magic.” Today, the whole gig was posted in one big session, by a…
New Saul Williams video: ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’
Hey, I knew Saul’s “Niggy Tardust” sold a bit poorly, but I never thought he’d have to live the rest of his day as a vagabond, hobo, bum etc. My apologies, Trent, for my bitchin’. Seeing Williams covered a [tagU2[/tag] song, “Sunday Bloody Sunday,” maybe Bono can spare him some change.
New The Polyphonic Spree video: ‘We Crawl’
Tim DeLaughter and his 20 something followers, that form the eccentric indie rock orchestra of [tag]The Polyphonic Spree[/tag], just released the video for their second single “We Crawl,” from last year’s The Fragile Army. What makes the video special is that instead of shooting a conventional video, each of the 23 members were handed a camera and asked to shoot whatever they feel like. Thus hundread of hours of footage was mailed to indie director…
Foo Fighters: ‘Long Road To Ruin’ (alternate version)
I’ve always had loads of fun with [tag]Foo Fighters[/tag]’ videos, packed with a lot of humor, next to some hard rocking. The initial video for “Long Road To Ruin,” was no exception, managing to crack me up on each play. I guess there’s something about Dave Grohl, that make the Foos video magic and funny as hell. Anyway the fun train hasn’t stopped yet and a alternate version of the video was posted recently, this…
New Nick Cave & TBS video: ‘Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!’
Here’s another opportunity to crack myself up, as [tag]Nick Cave[/tag]’s back with some new updates on “Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!” (just love the title) This time Nick and The Bad Seeds have released the video for this ‘epic’ song, that depicts the modern day interpolation of the biblical Lazarus resurrection. The video was directed by Iain Porsyth and Jane Pollard, check it out at the dig website (not digg). Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!, is out March 3,…
New Goldfrapp video: ‘A&E’
It’s been just a few days since we posted [tag]Goldfrapp[/tag] acoustic pop ballad “A&E” stream, that we just enjoyed and made us anxious to hear the rest of the group’s upcoming album “Seventh Tree.” The video for “A&E” is quite beautiful and calming, in perfect harmony with the actual song and seeing as it’s been direct by Douglas Wilson, whom you might remember as the director for Bat For Lashes’ terrific video for What A…
New Michael Jackson video: ‘Billy Jean 08’ (Kanye West remix)
Some time ago we did a Thriller 25th anniversary special post, in which we discussed [tag]Michael Jackson[/tag]’s iconic album from its sound to its sales to its legacy. Also back then we mentioned there was gonna be a re-issue with remixes and covers, from the current pop and R&B celebrities. Such a re-edited track is MJ’s smashing Billy Jean, on which [tag]Kanye West[/tag] put his word class producing skills to the test, by infusing some…
