  1. “Hanging On” video from Active Child

    January 20, 2012 by A2S

    Brand new video from one of the catchiest singles of 2011.


  2. The Loom’s video for “For The Hooves That Gallop, and the Heels That March”

    October 25, 2011 by A2S

    Brooklyn’s The Loom’s debut album “Teeth” is coming out November 1st on Crossbill Records and their single “For The Hooves That Gallop, and the Heels That March” has this pretty video that was premiered on NPR. It’s visually stunning and the song is an eerie folk track with a sultry sax melody, jazz percussion that moves the the falsetto group vocals like a spoon through molasses, and an accosting and powerful driving guitar. I’m not sure I entirely understand the concept for the video, but try to watch it and just absorb beauty. Tour dates for these guys below the break.

  3. The Ting Ting’s new “Hang It Up”

    October 21, 2011 by A2S

    The Brit duo are back and still incredibly catchy pop with a slight hip-hop twinge bringing a video inspired by San Diego via 1999. Dig it.


  4. “Alpha Street West” Video – Butcher the Bar

    October 15, 2011 by A2S

    It’s no surprise that Manchester UK’s Butcher the Bar (aka Joel Nicholson) will soon be heading out on a European tour with Death Cab for Cutie. The indie pop folk instrumentation with a whispy tenor voice and strong clucking percussion is like Death Cab crossed with Kevin Devine on Prozac. What might surprise you is that Nicholson manages not to burst out laughing in this “gravity-defying” video, where he encounters all sorts of flying objects. He does crack a smile a few times though. And so will you at this fun video.

    “Alpha Street West,” is taken from Nicholson’s newest Morr Music release, For Each A Future Tethered.


  5. “Dragging Your Feet In the Mud” Video – Lydia

    by A2S

    Welcome back, Lydia. You tug at my heart strings and romanticize the world like high school young love. This video for “Dragging Your Feet In the Mud” does the same, chalk-full of images from Los Angeles’ Griffith Observatory to PCH on the California Coast. It’s been a long while since I’ve seen these guys, but they’ll be back in LA on November 5th at The Roxy on their new release Paint It Golden.


  6. “Little Egypt Wavy” – Robert Raimon Roy

    October 14, 2011 by A2S

    This is funkier than Jazz from Fresh Prince doing the running man. Holy Shit! This video, directed by Peter J. Brant, is the first look into Roy’s third album Le Tigre Blanc.


  7. LCTRISC’s Video for “Sunbird”

    October 12, 2011 by A2S

    This video for Sweeden’s LCTRISC is so beautifully done and pretty heart-wrenching. Not to mention the song it’s shot for,  ”Sunbird,” is incredibly infectious and ethereally beautiful. I dare you to only watch this once.


  8. “Chair” – Big Deal

    October 10, 2011 by A2S

    Brit guy/girl duo Big Deal’s debut album Lights Out was released on September 5th in the UK but likely won’t be around in the U.S. until some time next year. Until then, I’ll be scouring the interwebs for more tidbits from this band because it’s bound to be my new favorite.


  9. Neon Indian – “Polish Girl” video

    September 26, 2011 by A2S

    Neon Indian “Polish Girl” from Dot & Effects on Vimeo.

    Who doesn’t love some dreamy electro pop from Neon Indian?
