let your hair metal down with Steel Panther at House of Blues Sunset Blvd (um, apparently Miley Cyrus will be there, as well. if ever there was a night to hit Steel Panther, tonight is the night. once i saw Kelly Clarkson get up on stage and drink straight Makers Mark or something equally as poisonous to a young preteen pop career while she fucked up Journey lyrics with the lame-ass from Yellowcard. if Miley hangs around after her show, i guarantee something awful aka amazing will happen. p.s. how can you fuck up Journey lyrics? i mean, she was on American Idol?!!?!??)
Kelly Clarkson jumps the pop shark with Steel Panther
tonight Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros are playing the Mayan in Los Angeles. here are a couple of nonsensical videos (or, if you really think about it (i.e. do drugs) are they sensical??? nahhhhh……) from their eponymous debut, Up From Below. also, the chanting guy in the beginning of Desert Song is real footage of Sharpe’s father getting his om on with little baby Edward in his arms, which kind of gives you a sense of where the singer is coming from… literally.
just in case you couldn’t figure out the plot (likely), here’s the full synopsis for the second video from ESATMZ’s Myspace post: Part 2: Kisses Over Babylon is the second installment of SALVO!, a 12-part feature-length music video series from Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros. Kisses picks up in the same desert wasteland world, ravaged by drought. Edward is arrested by two Minors (police from Ursa Minor) for the murder of his own father, and taken to a water-labor prison. There he reunites with Brother, his long-ago friend, and rallies the prisoners to a frenzied prison break. Edward and Brother escape, followed closely by the the mysteriously recalcitrant prison guard Croc…
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros have released a new video for Kisses Over Babylon. it’s the second release in a scheduled twelve part opus where Edward is wandering through the desert of his own ego or something incredibly pretentious and self-involved like that. don’t get me wrong, i’m really digging on the Edward Sharpe et al, and i’m totally looking forward to their upcoming show on December 14th at the Mayan. (tickets are still available here. last show sold out if i recall correctly, so pick them up fast.) Kisses Over Babylon also totally has an Ennio Morricone sound to it, which is awesome and makes it hardly surprising as to how much the video looks like it was directed by Sergio Leone.
we’ve posted the first video for Desert Song previously, but you (kind of) need to watch them in order to follow the narrative (?), so here are both. i’d like to reiterate that the chanting guy in the beginning of Desert Song is real footage of Sharpe’s father getting his om on with little baby Edward in his arms. kind of gives you a sense of where the singer is coming from… literally. (the video for Kisses Over Babylon is after the jump)
