A Place to Bury Strangers


It has come to my attention that A Place to Bury Strangers is about to launch their sophomore album entitled "Exploding Head," how befitting, which will hit stores on October 6th. They are without a doubt the loudest, in a good way, band on the face of the earth. It is no wonder their headline is "pure sonic annilihation" because in all actuality that is what it is. If you have not heard the music this band spits out, then by all means please visit their site. In the meantime here are some videos:

Michel Gondry

Michel Gondry is one of the most innovative directors in present time. His style is like no other, it is playful yet so experimental. I have posted a few of his videos for your viewing pleasure. See if you can spot the common themes and styles.  For a full list of Gondry's movies and music videos please click here. And if you like Gondry's playfulness you might also want to check out Pes Films! Also rumor has it Gondry will be directing "The Green Hornet" due out in 2010.
