Do we ever have some videos for you — watch the latest from Queen Kwong, (starring Johnny Knoxville), Taleen Tali (starring vampires) and CARRÉ (starring mind-blowing animation).
Books are sexy. Book banning isn’t. And Alex Lilly’s “Pure Drivel” (and its video) is tune that’ll crack your spine. Along with the new single “Melinda,” it appears on Lilly’s sophomore album, “Repetition Is a Sin.” It’s out Oct. 21, with a show to celebrate that night at Gold-Diggers.
Jaws of Love, the solo project of Kelcey Ayer (of Local Natives), will release their sophomore album, “Second Life,” in November. The songwriter goes through some ups and downs in the video for “5 Years,” co-directed by his wife.
French Mouth’s “Match Made in Heaven” alludes to love between two avatars in a digital world — a dystopian story told in spectacularly feral fashion by the L.A. hardcore quartet in under a minute and a half. Animator Miguel Robledo brings them to life in the video.
L.A. quartet Atta Boy unveil the new single “Deep Sea Ladder,” along with the news that their third album, “Crab Park,” will be out Oct. 21.
The video for “Lipstick” ushers in the release of Jesse Jo Stark’s debut album, “Doomed,” out today.
O.C. roots-rock trio the Brevet have come back strong this summer, releasing three singles from an album planned for early next year. The latest, “Safe,” is a sturdy statement of devotion.
“Overreacting,” the debut EP from Jei-Rynn, is out Oct. 21. “Sleeping (All Day),” which arrives with a catchy melody, big production and, like the standalone singles that preceded it, a distinct video style, is reason for alt-pop fans to get out of bed.
A 15th-century church in the English countryside is the locale for the video for Allie Crow Buckley’s new single, “Angel.” It’s a heavenly setting for a song about the throes of new love.
Just think of Surf Curse’s intense video for the new single “Self Portrait” as therapy. Scream on.
