As I’ve probably said in the past, I love it when people funk up a good bit of Radiohead. This video uses a very cool horn-heavy cover of ‘Just’ (one of my favourite Radioshed songs) and magically animates graffiti found on the streets of London village. Amongst the recognisable streetart is that of Banksy, SpaceInvader and Pure Evil. I think. Either way, it looks and sounds ace. You can download it by ’save-as’ing the High Quicktime stream.

Me and a mate of mine, Chris, have always liked At The Drive-in. When the band split, I was upset but at least the products of that split, namely the Mars Volta and Sparta were pretty fruitful. They are two fine bands, however they never managed to encapsulate the raw hardcore energy of ATDI and this was a great shame. Last night we went to see a band that does so many things that were great about ATDI well: The Fall of Troy. They hail from Washington state and are really very similar, which sounds lame but in my opinion they fill a gap that really needed filling since ATDIs 2001 split. They played at Fibbers in York, which is a dinky little place but was perfect for The Fall of Troy. They impressed as much as we hoped and I’m currently enjoying their latest album Doppleganger very much. Also, with song titles like ‘We Better Learn To Hotwire A Uterus‘ it’s pretty clear that they’re not taking themselves too seriously. Although their set was disappointingly short, I’d recommend a look if they play near you.

I didn’t know that Drew from the frequently chortle-tastic Toothpaste For Dinner and Natalie Dee were married. There’s an internet-pseudo-celebrity factlet for you. Well now we all know because they’ve done a website together and it’s called Married To The Sea. I’m not entirely sure quite why I find it funny, but it certainly has its moments. I’d be interested to know where they get the original pictures from. But lets face it, these guys were never about artistic prowess, they were all about getting down with the clown. Enjoy or, y’know… don’t. > Visit Married To The Sea
