Some Cool Eye Candy
So I kept wondering what I should put up to actually make it worth time for you out there to read this post. After some thought about it I thought I would put up some videos that I'm guessing you should find interesting. The first one is not a new song but I think you will understand why I love it. Especially at the end when you see how they did it. I actually originally saw this video on a RES Magazine dvd but thought about it again when Cece and I went to see Ladytron at the Gothic Theater. A group called Datarock opened up for them and they had a song called Computer Camp Love which was the catalyst for me remembering this video. It's by a group called Grandaddy and the song is called "Jed's Other Poem"
I'm sure it's not surprising why that video caught my eye. I also wanted to include the Datarock video as well.
Here's a video that I fricking love. There's something awesome about slow motion violence. It's a little bit of a build up but when you get to 1:45 that's when it starts getting interesting. And when 2:12 rolls around I'm actually cackling.
Because the people's faces move so crazily Cece doesn't think that the footage is real. I other hand know that it looks like that because it's extreme slow motion. I actual saw a brainiac episode that showed somebody getting bitch slapped and somebody breaking a block of wood both in super slow motion. They look a lot like the Robyn video.
This is a pretty cool video and is very different than most of the videos that I actually seek out. It's from Portishead's newest album Third and the song is called "The Rip". I always appreciate animation and I bet this took forever to finish. I also bet it was done entirely by hand (or at least it looks that way). The song itself I feel gets really good at the 2:20 mark.
For the last video I wanted to have it be a little lighter so I am leaving you with a video that I think is pure comic genius. Please watch it till the very end, it's worth it.
One other music video that I really wanted to put on this post was DJ Rupture's video "Flop We". I just couldn't find it, so if you think you might have better luck than me then you shouldn't definitely try to find it. It's a great video and a cool song.
