St. Vincent – Cruel
I really like this music video for St. Vincent’s “Cruel”. On the surface it appears to be the story of a man who uses his crippled daughter as a lure to kidnap St. Vincent to make her a mother to … Continue reading
Panda Bear – Alsatian Darn
This unofficial video for Panda Bear’s “Alsatian Darn” is trippy as hell. It’s kind of how I always thought a Panda Bear track would look if you could just see the sound. The video is an experimental animation project by … Continue reading
Ninja Sex Party – Dinosaur Laser Fight / The Decision / You Can Do Us!
If you’re a fan of cheesy 80’s-ness and The Lonely Island’s absurdist brand of musical comedy, then you are going to love Ninja Sex Party. In their newest music video Danny Sexbang and Ninja Brian take over a science class … Continue reading

Even as the month draws to a close, bringing along with it fall, summer’s still going strong (it actually hit 80 in Seattle the other day) and that deserves a good summer song to send the season out right. I … Continue reading
Lana Del Rey – Video Games / Kinda Outta Luck
Lana Del Rey refers to her music as “Hollywood Sad Core” and to herself as a “Gangster Nancy Sinatra”. I feel like those descriptions are pretty dead on. Not only is she a stunningly beautiful woman with Angelina Jolie’s bee-stung … Continue reading
