Folk Radio UK premieres Field Division’s music video for “Hollow Body Weather” from their forthcoming debut EP, out this Tuesday:

I’ll be honest, when I was offered the video premiere Hollow Body Weather I was immediately smitten by Evelyn’s dreamy vocals and their rich pastoral sound…The video works so well on many different levels, refracted lights, hazy filtered scenes compliment the recollection of past memories ‘waking dreams’…it’s stunning.

The Bluegrass Situation premieres Christian Lee Hutson’s new video “They’re All Gonna Hate Me,” the newest track from his forthcoming full length Yeah Okay, I Know!

There is something so strangely affecting about Christian Lee Hutson’s video for “They’re All Gonna Hate Me.”…The clip is packed with completely irreverent dance moves, weird camera quirks and a creeping orange tabby — all backed by a slow burning country chord progression.

VIDEO PREMIERE: Death + Taxes premieres Pollen – “Apartment”

Death + Taxes premieres “Apartment,” the debut video by Austin garage punk trio Pollen off their debut S/T EP, out today on cassette and digital formats!

[‘Apartment’ has] an absurdly catchy chorus bookended by gritty verses, and the video’s got the same perfect combination of creepy (dark lighting, claustrophobic and dizzying camera-work) and playful (dancing in your underwear, living the twenty-something bohemian life) that the track embodies…It’s the perfect track if you’ve found yourself lately a bit like me right now: lying in bed in your underwear in a new apartment, listening to music, waiting for summer to “start.”

View the video at Death + Taxes and pick up the new EP on bandcamp!

Decoder Magazine premieres The Van Allen Belt video “Songs”

The Van Allen Belt Decoder Mag

The Van Allen Belt recently released a 7” entitled “Songs”, and have just finished the video for the title track, which Decoder Magazine is premiering today, saying “‘Songs’ is a busy piece of hallucinogenic pop from one of the Steel City’s most underrated bands.”

Vocalist Tamar Kamin describes the concept of the video:

“We shot this on location at an abandoned level floor of what was once a Woolworth’s in Youngstown, OH. It is rumored to be the first existing location of the business chain. We complemented the old-fashioned look of the set and props with a unique process that Scott [Taylor] developed using analog and digital video feedback. The result is evocative of our group’s collaborative style, patching modern visual effects onto historic foundations. Many of the effects you’ll see here were captured in a live setting and were visible to the crew as we stood beside the camera…We explored how the duality of our group dynamic interacts, arranging snapshots of our influences in a playful way to mimic the sampling of music using film language.”
