Samtastic! Review: Miike Snow performing "Burial" @ KCRW

More Miike Snow, I know I can be repetitive and it can be annoying, I at least annoy myself...but this is my obsession right now, thanks to Monica. This is about to blow up too because I saw Perez post it today, but I was first last week or whenever!

Miike Snow, which is a band, not a person, performing "Burial" @ KCRW

Samtastic! Review: Coldplay's Strawberry Swing Video

Coldplay's official Strawberry Swing Video, I heart this song. This video is pretty amazing, I love the concept of drawings as backgrounds, and this looks like they used chalk, which is even cooler.

Samtastic! Review: Snake Sweat by the Yeah Yeah Yeah's

This is a short film directed by Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's with co-conspirator Barney Clay, starring the Yeah Yeah Yeah's. It's raining here today, so this is only fitting, it's dark and dreary. And either this band is on some really heavy drugs? or they are trying pretty hard to like modern Salvador Dali copycats or wannabes...or something. Still, it's pretty creative, and way more interesting than what most other bands are doing.

Samtastic! Review: Miike Snow gets my thumbs up

Ok, so my verdict is in on Miike Snow, and I am really into him right now. Check out the song "In Search Of" below. Listen to it loud, like as if you were in a club and there are lasers all around you. Or in your ears somehow listen to this so that it's the only thing you can hear, and you will love it, I promise.

Samtastic! Review: Obits video for Pine On

Obits! Monica's brother Scott is in this band drumming. They are called Obits (short for Obituaries I am told), ha ha ha...they just released this video for their song "Pine On", and I like it, it's humourous and the song is quite catchy.

Samtastic! Review: Antony & The Johnsons & Metropole Orkest - Crazy in Love



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0ob52GyXl4

This is Antony & the Johnsons covering Beyonce...

I actually love Beyonce's version...but this is just as good in a whole different kind of way. This performance is just really powerful. I need to see this band live...

Samtastic! Review: Elly from LaRoux talking

Well, I am still waiting for my album to show up, from the UK, and so here is a little of Elly to tide us over...she is only like 20 or 21 I think, seems pretty normal. I am a fan.

Samtastic! Review: Thom Yorke covering All for the Best

New Thom Yorke - "All For The Best" (Stereogum Premiere) - Stereogum

Shared via AddThis

This is a cover by Thom Yorke, but it's pretty good, he can do very little wrong in my opinion.

Samtastic! Review: Julian Plenti, yes again!



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=disfmX8GZgc

Julian Plenti, yes again, this song is called Unwind, check it out, it's sexy and summery and has some horns going on...Digging this hardcore, more than Interpol.
