...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Naked Sun

I've been a fan of ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead for many years now and I recently came across this very cool clip of theirs for, Naked Sun, which is from their 2006 album, So Divided.

The clip features a group of children wandering through the desert being spied on by their would be assassins.

Turns out these kids have rad superpowers and end up using them on the nasty baddies... with great results.

I love the effect with the wool, very cool indeed. Plus I'm sure if you listen closely to the lyrics there's an important message about sun safety in there somewhere.

Cool and educational!

Klaxons - Echoes

This blog is all about some of my favourite songs and film clips, but I've been neglecting to pay tribute to the album cover! It's can make or break an album, and from the second I saw the Klaxon's latest cover I knew I was in for a treat.

It's a cat astronaut, and looks so damn awesome!

Echoes is the opening track off their new album, Surfing The Void, and it's a epic sounding track that's backed up with a great film clip, shot in the Egyptian White Desert with some great expansive visuals that work perfectly with the tune.

Yeasayer - Ambling Alp

Yep, I loved their debut album, All Hour Cymbals, back in 2007 and it's awesome to see Yeasayer back in 2010 with what could possibly be the album of the year. I know it's pretty early to be making these sort of calls, but I might as well get in early.

This clip is best served on Acid! Dark horsemen, strange paint blob guys, worm-hole heads, and nude desert runners. Yep, it's got it all!

Just a straight up awesome track from a wicked album. Now bust out the body paint, nude up and get amongst it kids!
