Follow the Water

Architects release their third music video in Europe/US today. The track ‘Follow the Water’ is off their latest album, Hollow Crown. The UK premiere is on Monday, October 19th, and you’ll be able to find it on kerrang.com

Sorry for all of you who don’t want to travel to another site to watch this! But you have to. They’ve disabled the embed code, and it’s been killed off youtube, so no luck (N).

The movie itself is okay, the entire thing is just them playing in a packed venue, with a videographer who is able to get up and close, it doesn’t really do the song justice, as it is, in my opinion, the best song they have ever written. The lyrics still confuse me, the whole ‘Drain the lake and bring it back to me’ thing, I just don’t understand why you want a lake delivered to you! Anyways, check it out, you’ll be glad you did.

The UK musicians are back, with a new official promo video for their song “Zzzonked” from the recent album Common Grounds.  The video was directed by Bob Harlow and film/produced by Stitchthat.
Filmed on the first night of their tour in Norwich on October 5th 2009, it is no question that their true stage presence was fully captured and the chemistry this band has with their audience is truly amazing.

Enter Shikari toured the U.S. just last month and makes us Canadians wonder when it will be our turn to experience one of their live shows… I mean really, it’s been like 2 years!

Alexisonfire premiered their second single Born and Raised from their new album “Old Crows/Young Cardinals” on MOD (Much Music) just before the thanksgiving weekend. There was a behind the scene making of the video that was released on YouTube by Dine Alone Records, so check that out!

The band is currently playing various dates with Anti-Flag, Four Year Strong, and The Ghost of a Thousand in the UK, and they are to hit the roads of Canada in March 2010 with Against Me and Mississauga’s Billy Talent.

Also, for all you hardcore fans, if you have an Alexisonfire tattoo, if you didn’t know, you can get yourself guest listed the next time they stop by your town. All you got to do is email a ticket requests to: tattoos@theonlybandever.com (at least 3 weeks before the scheduled show). Pretty sweet if you ask me!

For more information go to www.theonlybandever.com or www.myspace.com/alexisonfire

BRING ME THE HORIZON – The Sadness Will Never End


United Kingdom’s Bring Me The Horizon releases their 4th music video off of Suicide Season today. The video freatures the song The Sadness Will Never End. Produced and Directed by Adam Powell/RSA Films (The Comedown, Chelsea Smile). Set in a forest, the video quickly switches between the band playing, and a boy walking through the dark forest. Sam Carter from Architects is also featured in this video, during his singing contributions on the track.

On a personal note, my favourite part is 3:23, where you can see the band going full out, and the chemistry between Oli and Sam really stands out.

Video: Death Cab for Cutie – Meet me on the Equinox

Sorry if you are unable to watch the video. From what I understand it is available in Canada and US now. If you can’t see it, there are many versions on youtube, just low quality.

Death Cab for Cutie officially released their music video for ‘Meet me on the Equinox’, which is better known as the first track off of the new Twilight film soundtrack, New Moon.

The setting for the actual band is in an old dusty room with tons of light spilling in through the windows. It’s a very calm looking set.

For the first minute and a half, the band is playing in a room with various scenes from the new movie. The cool thing is that at 1:48, they all just stop and stare. More intense parts of the movie are played, and when it switches back to the band, the sun appears to go down, and the light fades. The band starts playing again, however, with much more energy, and in a dark setting.

The soundtrack for the movie is due out October 20th.

Ontario’s own Dead and Divine are back, with a new music video off their album The Machines We Are. The song is called Neon Jesus and you certainly understand the neon part. With the dark setting and the eerie glow of the lights, it sets the mood. The cloaked men with neon weapons will definitely remind you of something from starwars. Regardless of how intergalatic this may be, they still need your help to get their video played more on much! So go vote for them here: http://www.muchmusic.com/tv/mod20/talk_to_us.aspx

Video: LIGHTS – Saviour

Toronto’s Juno award winning  LIGHTS released her first ever full length album “The Listening” on September 22nd. The album includes already known hits from her Self titled EP like “Drive Your Soul” and others. The first song on the record “Saviour”, a propulsive pop ballad that represents the essence of Lights. “My songs are spawned from moments of sadness or intense emotion,” the singer says. “‘Saviour’ is a big example of taking one of those really dark emotional situations and turning it into something positive. I just happened to get hit with a really dark sad night. The melody started coming together and the words started pouring out. I was crying when I wrote the first line of the chorus and it actually sounds kind of like crying. It’s a really, really powerful song for me”

The Listening hits stores October 6th in the States. And for all you Canadians who havent yet picked up a copy of the album, I suggest you do, its incredible!
