In My Younger Days

Zee Video Roundup...

The best music video of 2009:
Video :: All The King’s Men by Wild Beasts (Little Stolen Moments'' alternate video)


The one song on The Magnetic Fields’ new one, “Realism”, that doesn’t render me sleepy and long for the 69 Love Songs of yore...
Video :: We Are Having A Hootenanny by The Magnetic Fields


More dancing (da stanky leg variety)...
Video :: Sugarbaby by Crystal Stilts (perhaps not official)


The most anticipated album of the year is by Broken Bells (James Mercer and Danger Mouse):
Video :: The High Road by Broken Bells

Better than a cold bath with someone you dislike

It's about time. Finally someone has written a song about floating clairvoyant rescue-workers!?!?!?! The Wild Beasts with "Brave Bulging Buoyant Clairvoyants"... and yes they actually do repeat the title of this song over and over again in the chorus. File under "interesting".

A wee bit addictive too.

Somewhat connected, husband and wife team Mates of State have a cleaner version of the "action cut-out" style used in "brave bulging..." in their video for synth-laden "Fraud in the 80's". Watch for an appearance of baby Magnolia, who tours with them on the road, on Jason's belt buckle!
