Ridiculous and fantastic all at the same time. I love you, Jeff the Brotherhood. I want to marry you and Ty Segall. A trio made in heaven.

Minus the Bear – “My Time”
This new video from Minus the Bear fascinates me with it’s Mondrian technicolor themes. The look of this band rather confuses me as well. They look like indie rockers but sound like indie poppers. And the whole thing sorta smacked me in the face with a hint of Bee Gees. Am I wrong?
The Besnard Lakes – “Albatross”
The latest video for “Albatross” by The Besnard Lakes from their Jagjaguwar release “The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night.” REALLY looking forward to their show Monday night 5/10 at The Independent in San Francisco! See you there.

2010 SF Big Wheel Race Highlights
Not necessarily music related but such a fun local tradition I felt compelled to share. This year my neighborhood played host to the 10th Annual Big Wheel Races held every Easter Sunday. Hundreds, thousands of people bust out their vintage Big Wheels, Green Machines, and custom rigs to race down San Francisco’s real crookedest street, Vermont Street in Potrero Hill. In costumes to boot! Good fun.
Dum Dum Girls – “Jail La La”
The new video for “Jail La La”, off Dum Dum Girls’ debut full-length released last month.
Titus Andronicus – “A More Perfect Union”
The first video from Titus Andronicus‘ second album, “The Monitor”.
The Temper Trap – “Sweet Disposition”
God damn, these guys blew my mind in Austin. One of my favorite live performances and one of my favorite albums from ’09. What a voice, what a drummer. These Aussies are going to be huge. Mark my word. Check out their new video for the track “Sweet Disposition” off the album Conditions. Then sing out loud with me…”A moment, a love, a dream, a laugh, a kiss, a cry, our rights, our wrongs….Won’t stop till it’s over/ Won’t stop till you surrender.”
Vodpod videos no longer available.

Massive Attack – “Saturday Come Slow” [Video]
Massive Attack has been blowing my mind with their collection of videos, rather short films, promoting their latest album Heligoland. This one for the track “Saturday Come Slow” is by far the most intense. Directed by Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, the short was filmed inside Cambridge University’s anechoic chamber (designed to create total silence) and features former Guantanamo Bay detainee, Ruhal Ahmed, reflecting on his experiences while in detention there and how he was interrogated using high-volume music.
