New Okkervil River video: ‘Our Life Is Not A Movie Or Maybe’
I’m really thrilled Austin based [tag]Okkervil River[/tag] finally decided to make a video for this epic song, filled with melodic twists and aggressive choruses, off a, what seems, a clear winner so far of album of the year: Stage Names.

New Bat for Lashes video: ‘What’s A Girl To Do’
Brighton’s own Natasha Khan and her crew from Bat for Lashes have once again released a kick ass video, of hypnotic proportions: ‘What’s A Girl To Do’. The video looks like a classic horror flick intro, creepy piano lines and pulsing beats, with of course the usual BFL anomalies, like a band of mascot headed bicyclists riding behind Natasha K. and doing syncs. Director Douglas Wilson has really done a great job on capturing the…
