Southern inflected Dad Rock meets Punk Rock vaguely eerie, sort of occulty vibes in the new video clip for Philly-based quintet Sheer Mag’s catchy-as-hell “Suffer Me”. “Suffer Me” is from Sheer Mag’s debut studio LP ‘Need to Feel Your Love’, which is out July 14th via Static Shock. Sheer Mag
When veteran Hip-Hop trio De La Soul dropped their ninth full length album ‘and the Anonymous Nobody… ‘ last Summer I wasn’t trying to hear it. It was just too much of a departure from the sampladelic production aesthetic that put them on the map for me me and I[…]
Watch a public transportation rider experience initiatory illumination via a sort of music-fueled hallucinatory singularity in the new clip for IDM beatmaker Lusine’s “Just a Cloud”. The downtempo House jam featuring glitchy micro-edited vocals from Vilja Larjosto is from the Seattle-based producer’s ‘Sensorimotor’ LP which is out now via Ghostly[…]
Earlier today I got an excited instant message from a friend asking if I’d seen the new Katy Perry video. I had not. The message came from an individual with whom I’d once engaged in fantasy sex-play involving simulated murder, necrophilia, and anthropophagy. It read, simply, “cannibalism”. The video, for[…]
Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s “virtual band” Gorillaz is back with a 360-degree interactive video, replete with Lovecraftian tentacle monsters, for their new Caribbean-spiced auto-tune Electro-Dancehall-Pop tune “Saturnz Barz (Spirit House)”. “Saturnz Barz”, which features vocals from Popcaan, is the first single from the animated group’s forthcoming fifth LP ‘Humanz’,[…]
This is SO me right now. These adorably depressing “rainbow Goth Girl” visuals are for “Sweet Sound of Ignorance”, the languid new single from French Emo girl chanteuse Stéphanie “SoKo” Sokolinski. “Sweet Sound of Ignorance” is the first new music SoKo has released since her most recent album ‘My Dreams[…]
Considering Aleister Crowley’s Thelemic proclamation that “every man and every woman is a star in 1904’s ‘Liber AL vel Legis’ and the importance of “starry wisdom” and “the stars” being “right” in H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos it kinda makes sense I’d be feeling French Electro/Techno guy Vitalic’s “Waiting for the[…]
Peep the surprisingly dark and horrific new video clip for my hands down favorite song at the moment, Argentine popstress Tei Shi’s sexily sadomasochistic slow-flow Electro-Funk jam “How Far”. “How Far” is from her forthcoming LP ‘Crawl Space’ which is set to hit retailers on March 31st via Downtown/Interscope. Tei[…]
Whoa! Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard continues to crank out the solo jams, and he comes through big time with “Home”, which features Daniel Wilson and a healthy sampling of a “Dusty Grooves” classic by Brainstorm. Throw in some sweet animations by Pete Fowler of Super Furry Animals fame and you’ve[…]
A video featuring a giant space structure and a super sci-fi flavored alien witch-cult for a new millennium take on early ’90s House music is exactly the sort of weirdness I needed from Swedish Synth-Funk outfit Little Dragon right about now. “Safe” is from Little Dragon’s forthcoming fifth LP ‘Season[…]
Los Angeles-based Folk Punk duo Girlpool pair slime-coated horror-inspired imagery with romantic Shoegazey baroque balladry in the video clip for their song “123”. “123” is from their forthcoming sophomore album ‘Powerplant’ which is due out May 12th on Anti- Records. Girlpool
“Wandering”, the newest video clip from California-bred Alternative darling Jamie Stewart’s Xiu Xiu, couples bizarrely surreal visuals with dramatically Goth-y Industrial-influenced Synthpop. It’s from the band’s forthcoming tenth studio album ‘Forget’, which is out February 24th on Polyvinyl Records. I’ve heard it, and liked a lot of what I heard.[…]
