Gorillaz New Album Plastic Beach

Gorillaz have released their new album and it's a weird and wonderful ride. Highlights for me include "Superfast Jellyfish" featuring Gruff Rhys from the Super Furry Animals and De La Soul. Another track "Some Kind of Nature" pulls off effortless cool thanks to Lou Reed. There are so many guest appearances, it would take too long to list but some of the notable ones are Snoop Dogg, Mark E Smith and Mos Def.
Check out their new video "Stylo", don't ask me how they did it but they managed to convince Bruce Willis to take part. The video has set new records on Youtube, receiving 900,000 views in the first 24hrs. It's by no means the strongest track on the album but enjoy.....

On a side note, which cannot be remotely tied into anything British, check out the new Broken Bells album, it is simply top class.

Belushi's Web Camera Back Up!

Previously I posted about a bar in Edinburgh called Belushi's. They have a web camera which provides much amusement, if you like to watch drunk Scottish people bustin the moves. They seem to have moved the camera slightly to the left, so you see less of the bar, which is a shame. But it still should provide some laughs, be sure to check it out on a Friday. To view fullscreen, just double click the video.

Hot Chip.....

This video and song are cheesier than David Hasslehoff but I defy you not to sing along with the chorus....

Blood Red Shoes.....

They are a mix of Nirvana, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and a sprinkling of The Vines. Musically they are breaking no new ground but they still make me want to shout "Light It Up" at the top of my lungs. Enjoy!......
