noreply@blogger.com (ctrl/alt/delete) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 19:41:00 +0000

The Video for Videotapes by The Chapters is up for most original concept in IMTV Video Music awards. I have no problem with the video being nominated for an award , its the most original concept bit i have a problem with, take a look at the two videos below.

as you can see both videos have striking similarities ,with the Vampire Weekend video being done by the extremly tanleted hammer and tongs
Even the youtube thumbnails for the videos look alike

Attention, Action Fans...

noreply@blogger.com (Clockwork Rob) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 08:14:00 +0000

What do you get when you cross Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Eric Roberts, Danny Trejo, UFC's Randy Couture and 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin?

Clearly the answer is 'an 80s action fan's wet-dream', but it's also a new film written and directed by Sly himself: The Expendables.

The movie's been on the cards for some time, but the trailer has finally been released. It doesn't look amazing by any stretch of the imagination, but at the very least we can be guaranteed a few good one-liners, and maybe the odd decapitation.

Release dates are a while off yet, but the US won't see the film til the end of next summer, so I wouldn't hold your breath. In the meantime, here's the trailer:

Toy Story 3 Trailer

Electro-Friday, anyone?

Cowboy X launch their new EP, Analogue Droids, Upstairs in Whelans tonight with support from the excellent Candy In My Heels. Admission and doors are both a nice round 8. Look! A poster!

What better than a healthy dose of electro to help you forget the shittyness of the weather this weekend?

That's right- drinking yourself into oblivion would help too, but as socially conscious folk, we can't endorse that. So just get your ass down to the gig instead.

Here's the video for Cowboy X's Japanese Toy:
(Candy In My Heels don't have any youtube videos yet, but they do have a number one fan)

MurMur Presents: Super Adventure Club (S) + Not Squares + SECTA ROUGE (S)

noreply@blogger.com (ctrl/alt/delete) — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 21:22:00 +0000

Saturday, 19 September
@ the Tap bar :: 44 King St North
Doors 8pm €8

Super Adventure Club are a hyper melodic uber-spazz triumvirate from Edinburgh, Scotland. Inspired by the likes of Pavement, Frank Zappa, Sonic Youth and the Pixies, they write infectious and fluid songs with wide use of complex instrumentalisation.
It consists of: Bruce Wallace (guitar, vocals, nord), Mandy Clarke (bass, vocals) and Neil Warrack (drums, vocals).

Not Squares are three people from Belfast who combine language, sound and non-habitual movement in order to dance, shout and sing with you.

Conceived in the early days of 2005, Secta Rouge have played many a gig across the land mass known as the UK. The music is intense,aA kind of spacemath/noisecore dilemma with influences encompassing metal, progressive rock, post-hardcore, noise and fusion.

Speaking of the VMA's....

Michael Jackson's'This Is It' Trailer

noreply@blogger.com (Clockwork Rob) — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 12:54:00 +0000

In scrambling to to fill the huge financial void left by Michael Jackson's passing, concert promoters AEG sold hundreds of hours of rehearsal footage to Sony Pictures, who figured they could make a quick buck out of a cinema version. Said film is to be released on October 28th, and (bizarrely) run for two weeks only. To satisfy anticipated demand, tickets are going on sale a month early- on September 27th.

The film's trailer premiered yesterday at the MTV MVAs, and here it is for you in internetland:

Goodtime John’s free E.P :: Dark Slipped Its Cloak

noreply@blogger.com (ctrl/alt/delete) — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 10:38:00 +0000

A free download from Goodtime himself below is what he had to say about the new E.P

The songs on this EP where recorded by Phil Elverum in the Department of Safety in Anacortes, WA at the end of the summer of 2007. In between a ferocious table tennis tournament and a lot of lake swimming we got 11 songs recorded. The Songs available here are the ones I think work best. The idea I had was to have a really loose and raw feel to the songs and play with musicians who hadn’t heard the songs before (in a kind of John Wesley Harding style). Kevin Erickson played organ and some guitar, Adrian Orange played drums, Ruth Allison played bass and sang, Phil played drums, some piano and some guitar and Karl Blau popped in and did some harmonies. It’s taken a while for this to be released so I decided to give it away for free.
