If only the song matched the video quality
A up-and-coming British band (read poor garage band) needed to make a music video on the cheap. So instead of paying for studio fees and video equipment, they used the hundreds of government security cameras already set up around London. The band, the Get Out Clause, set up their gear in conspicuous spots, […]
Rockommercial: Chevy Malibu causes lazy eye
Silversun Pickups’ “Lazy Eye” is the latest indie track used to help sell cars. It’s featured in the new Chevy Malibu commercial below:
RADIOHEAD_VH1_MAY3
What a huge surprise — this sneak peek at a live performance by Radiohead, which will air in its entirety on May 3 (VH1’s Live From [Nigel’s] the Basement), sounds so effing awesome that I just started crying and wet my pants at the same time. That’s a lot of liquid folks.

Colbert interviews R.E.M. from atop superstool

Cee-Lo Causes Cee-Zures
MTV has banned the new Gnarls Barkley video, not because of bad words or violence or excessive funkitude, but because it could give you a seizure.
So let’s get this straight: having a seizure from watching Gnarls = unacceptable, losing all faith in humanity due to accidentally catching 20 seconds of the Real World vs. […]
Douche Alert: Someone needs to kick Kanye’s ass
And I think it should be Vince Gill:
Seriously, though, Kanye West might be the perfect embodiment of everything that is wrong with the world today. His display during last night’s Grammys made me fucking sick. Someone seriously needs to smack those retarded white sunglasses off his big cocky head and convince him that god doesn’t […]
Videos that make me want to be a better man
After months of tense and agonized waiting I finally saw There Will Be Blood this past weekend and it exceeded even my high expectations. Being that this is a music blog and I’m a strict follower of non-existent rules, I’ll only mention the music.
Many of you have heard Radiohead’s Johnny Greenwood’s soundtrack […]
