And The Giraffe ‘Underground Love’

January 22, 2012 by Lachy 0 Comments

I’ve been meaning to post the song ‘Underground Love’ from Florida(ian?) band And The Giraffe for a while now, and what finally swayed me was the fantastic music video that the band have just recorded to accompany the track, which is taken from their debut album ‘Something For Someone’. The video was shot in Los Angeles over the course of three days and with a budget of approximately $0, but it has come out a treat. Check this out.

The Bon Scotts are a Melbourne seven-piece, and they’re not an AC/DC cover band. Far from it, instead they play a distinctly clamorous and hectic form of folk music with bellowing choruses and interesting use of unconventional instruments.

Woodkid ‘Iron’

June 13, 2011 by Lachy 0 Comments

Woodkid is Yoann Lemoine, a French music video artist and film director. He has worked with artists such as Katy Perry and Taylor Swift, and has recently branched out into creating his own music under the stage name Woodkid. His own music is about as far removed from the artists he has worked with as possible however: this is dark, brooding, atmospheric songwriting that hides a constant sense of malice of foreboding underneath the pulsing drumbeat and exotic vocals.
