This is my favorite song from [tag]Interpol[/tag]’s masterpiece “Our Love To Admire”, it’s deep emotions that it inflicts upon listening are extraordinary, so I’m pretty pleased they decided to make a video for this as well and a very good one too, if you think how shady The Heinrich Maneuver was or how boring the live video for Mammoth was. Although the title might suggest a more explicit and sexual video, this isn’t the case;…
New Serj Tankian video: ‘Empy Walls’
As this week is very important politically speaking, I couldn’t avoid posting video with a strong message, from one of the most politically active artists, [tag]Serj Tankian[/tag]. A month ago we premiered The Unthinking Majority, a video meant as a direct critique to the current US administration and war in Iraq, now “Empty Walls” follows the same path and interestingly tries to prove that we’re all just a bunch of kinder garden kids. Twin lego…

Black Lips: ‘Good Bad Not Evil’
Artist name: Black Lips Album name: Good Bad Not Evil Label: Vice Records Gender: Alternative Rock/Garage Rock Release date: September 11, 2007 ZMErating: 7.5/10 Website: http://www.myspace.com/theblacklipsThe term of garage rock revival seems to get tossed around a bit easily, few bands really follow up to their label so to speak, but a band of witty post-teenagers that jams in dark basements to Stooges songs, such as early [tag]Black Lips[/tag], might deserve their tag line.

New Biffy Clyro video: ‘Machines’
[tag]Biffy Clyro[/tag] has always been notorious for their energetic and raw videos, like Semi-mental or Saturday Superhouse, but this time its a bit different. Their latest video “Machines”, the fifth single of Puzzle, is a lot slower then Biffy has accustomed us to, very static and emotional, packed with Simon Neil’s shivering and beautiful voice and acoustics. The powerful lyrics ( i would dig a thousand holes, to lay next to you) are meant to…

New Interpol video: ‘Mammoth’
When you think about how complex and mind blowing [tag]Interpol[/tag]’s video for Heinrich Maneuver was, you can’t help wondering why this latest video for Mammoth is so strikingly simple. The video is all a big live show performed by Interpol on a unknown venue, as always Interpol’s energy and spirit are remarkably channeled in their live performances, in their usual impeccable suits. “Just spare me the suspense”
