Spencer Cullum - Jack of Fools

posted October 14, 2020 #

Way way back in March of 2020, I got my first look at the video for "Jack of Fools," a track off the forthcoming Spencer Cullum's Coin Collection LP and I was completely mesmerized.

Tim Ward created this completely psychedelic experience and I can't say enough great things about it. I love the simple "frame in clouds" setup and how he continuously breaks that frame with acid warped "trails" and a color palette that would fit right in 1960's San Francisco.

The track itself is, obviously, wonderful as well. I can't wait for everyone to hear this record and fall in love with it as much as I have. Give it a watch or listen and prepare for more on Nov 12th.

@yewknee I think whoomp is probs the correct answer, but I’m sure we all agree that weakest link burned incredibly hot.

Friday Videos - Oct 9th, 2020

posted October 9, 2020 #

It's October so you know I've been compiling a Halloween playlist of absurdities. If you have suggestions, let me know. I want all the gems. Send them all!

Let's just dive into some distractions.

Sizzler Promotional Commercial 1991 - watch the entire 4:41 seconds of this. A book's worth of investigations and questions will swirl around you. How is American Freedom and Revolution related to a buffet? Did they shoot all of this? Why is that one couple making out so hard in a Sizzler? Mysteries of the universe. HT to Baldwin for this one.
Old Country Buffet Conversation Starters - staying on theme, this edit of a training video is Perfect Cringe.
Wendy's Chili - okay, so there's a whole YouTube of Training Videos (of course there is) and this Wendy's Chili Song is FIRE.
Marc Rebillet - Girl's Club - I am new to the world of Marc Rebillet. I was skeptical I would enjoy but I'll be damned if it isn't hilarious.
Megan the Stallion - Savage - I know nothing about Megan the Stallion but this performance is phenomenal for a myriad of reasons; the song, the message and the insane projections. Worth your time.
It Is Thursday, My Dudes - a new meme enters the arena.
What is Spoopy? - a friend asked me recently "what is Spoopy?" - I was more than happy to have this classic ready to deliver.
Dental School Robot (with sound) - truly the most disturbing creation I've seen this week.
The Fly of Prophecy - let it be true.

Stay safe out there. Keep wearing the dang mask.

Tower Defense, Keys to the City

posted October 9, 2020 #

Tower Defense is prepping their second full-length release, In the City, and the first single from that release just hit the streaming services. To contextualize it, the band put together a playlist of influences that molded them as a band and informed the album.

It's on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music - so you've no excuse not to listen!

Unsurprisingly, it's a wonderfully eclectic mix of late 90's indie underground, 80's new wave & post punk and a few surprising recent influences (don't sleep on Woolen Men!).

Enjoy and then follow the band and snag that LP.
