I don’t want to spoil the twist in the breathtaking video for George “joji” Miller’s new single “Slow Dancing in the Dark” but just let me say it’s a sublime surprise that falls right in line with the dark and bloody but whimsically beautiful imagery that has become a hallmark[…]
Archy “King Krule” Marshall does what he does best—moody neo-noirish Alternative Pop that seems equally inspired by Hip-Hop, vintage Jazz, Post-Punk, and Shoegaze—on his newest single “Biscuit Town”. The video, which finds him inhabiting the grim environs of a darkly surreal diorama model of a retro-futuristic dystopian city with decidedly[…]
It’s been kicking around YouTube for a few months and I’m only just now sharing it, but Japanese-American singer/singwriter Mitski’s depressive Emo-Disco thumper “Nobody” is one of my favorite records of the Summer. If I’m being perfectly frank, one of the reasons I post so infrequently these days is severe[…]
I can admit it, a lot of the shit I post here tends to be “feel bad music” in one way or another. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like to get down with a feel good jam now and then. The Summer season just happens to be the perfect[…]
Just in time to be severely late for Valentines Day Brooklyn based Punk quartet Surfbort drops a video dedicated to spreading love, breaking people’s realities open, and taking over corporate America so they can make art, have fun, friendship, and music forever for their brief but infectious new single “Les[…]
I love all of of Montreal’s music. But there’s always at least one song, if not a handful of them, from every one of their albums that really speaks to me. “Plateau Phase/No Careerism No Corruption” is definitely one of those songs. Yeah, it’s ear-catching with its blend of booming[…]
Kevin Barnes continues to evolve his drag looks in the video for of Montreal’s newest two-in-one jam “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia”. “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia” is the first single from the Athens, Georgia-based Indie-Pop band’s fifteenth studio album ‘White is Relic/Irrealis Mood’ which is out March 9th on Polyvinyl Records. of Montreal
I have no idea what the fuck is going on in the beautiful but creepy video clip for Baroque bedroom Pop act Son Lux’s new single “Slowly”. But the music is haunting in a way that is very typical of Son Lux’s output over the years. “Slowly” is the first[…]
I post a lot of horror-inspired videos but the clip for Chicano Batman’s “Freedom is Free” is horrific in a whole different way. In seeming opposition to the upbeat, almost deceptively care-free, vibe of the song, the video depicts the LA-based foursome undergoing the torture of “enhanced interrogation methods” as[…]
Abandoning the uncharacteristically Gothy New Wave sheen of their last record, “Little Dark Age”, MGMT go for a decidedly more subdued classic Indie-Pop sound while keeping the glum content intact on their snotty new single “When You Die”. I’m not that nice I’m mean and I’m evil Don’t call me[…]
San Francisco bred slam poet and rapper Watsky reps cunnilingus and fellatio and questions gender and identity based sexual conditioning in the very NSFW Nick Roney directed video for his track “Going Down”. Dude said: I got a wand tongue I’m doing sorcery I can dig it. “Going Down” is[…]
After taking a short break from recording, Psychedelic Pop band MGMT is back. And they’ve apparently traded their new age Psychtronica sound and hipster-cum-hippie image in for dark Electro-Funk grooves and Goth style on their new single “Little Dark Age”. The video sports some creepy, seemingly Giallo and Hammer Horror[…]
