Samtastic! Review: Declaration of Dependence by Kings of Convenience

Kings Of Convenience's new album called Declaration of Dependence has finally arrived. Here is a live version of the song 24-25. This album could not have arrived at a better time, their music is so fall-like to me. Sun on your face, driving around, or laying out somewhere under blue skies and clouds...whether you can do these things or not, this is how this album makes me feel.

Samtastic! Review: Disney & Dali? "DESTINO"

I wonder how much of this is really Salvador Dali & Walt Disney's actual artwork? It screams Dali the whole time, except maybe the woman Character, she is more Disney. The song accompanying this is beautiful, and the whole thing is pretty mesmerizing. It's just beautiful.

So, check it out, it's pretty interesting, and has nothing to do with kids...

Samatasitc! Review: Rain Machine at The Earl

So, needless to say, but I will anyway, this show was pretty damn amazing! The Earl never disappoints as a venue. Kyp Malone was selling their gear before the show and he seems super nice, I talked to him for about 30 seconds, and he just wants everyone to enjoy the music. Check out the other pics I posted. I would recommend checking out Rain Machine, and also Sharon Van Etten, her voice is mesmerizing!

Samtastic! Review: Wolfmother's New Moon Rising

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!

ROCK & ROLL, tripped out, awesomeness!

So excited, this video is great, the song is great! I may never get over the fact that Andrew Stockdale looks sort of like Aughra from the 80's movie The Dark Crystal! BUT who cares, the whole band is new except for him, he is the voice, and they are going to bring it live I think!

Samtastic! Review: Kings of Convenience NEW Video!

Kings Of Convenience - Boat Behind

Ahhhhh, a breath of fresh air! I love this band so much, just great, effortless chilled out folk music! I pre-ordered this album, but it doesn't come out until 10/20in the US. This video is exactly how I always see this band in my mind, even the color of the film or the treatment of it, it's like they are stuck in the late 60's or early 70's.

Samtastic! Review: GaGa at the March

I was planning on going to this march, and just dropped the ball...but here is an entertaining snippet from Lady GaGa, whom may be eccentric, colorful, and possibly insane, BUT is also very supportive of the gay community, and I like that! ARE YOU LISTENING!

Electric 6's video for Bodyshot, directed by Nabil Elderkin

I am only really posting this because I am a big fan of Nabil , this song is kind of annoyingly bad...but the video is well, entertaining.
