ViDEO BLAST - NEW MUSiC ViDEOS FROM THE CLAY PEOPLE, BOBAFLEX, KRASHKARMA, TO WHOM iT MAY, KORE ROZZiK AND GUNSHiP!!!
his
is something new. For over a decade now, FACEBOOK has stood in the way
of
me getting my work done for ROCKWIRED
MAGAZINE, and after all of these years I've come to the conclusion that
if I can't lick my FACEBOOK addiction, I might as well use it for the
good of our publication. This is a feature that we'd like to feature
every week and we'd like to move it beyond simply posting our favorite
new music videos. We want trailers, classic videos and whatever oddity
or trend we can find on YOUTUBE. Think of it as an aggregartor that you
didn't know that you needed. For our first posting, We we are keeping
it simple with six new - or fairly new - music videos from THE CLAY
PEOPLE, BOBAFLEX, KRASHKARMA, TO WHOM IT MAY, KORE ROZZIK and GUNSHIP.
THE
CLAY PEOPLE - COLOSSUS
othing goes
more perfectly together than the
blistering sound of industrial rockers THE CLAY PEOPLE and a little bit
of monster movie madness. The footage of some of GODZILLA's most famous
conflicts with RODAN and other such beasts, brings this music video to
life and works seamlessly with footage of the band issuing their lethal
brand of metal. COLOSSUS is just a taste of what people can expect from
the band's forthcoming album DEMON HERO. Expect an interview with the
band's drummer DAN DINSMORE coming soon to ROCKWIRED.
BOBAFLEX
- OFF WiTH YOUR HEAD
t's taken
us a while to give this music video the
write up it deserves. Shock rock progenitors BOBAFLEX don't know a damn
thing about subtlety and that's a beautiful thing! OFF WITH
YOUR HEAD is the
subdued track on their latest album ELOQUENT DEMONS but don't think
these guys are going gently into that good night. This one goes out to
all them girls at the bar that you wish you hadn't started a
conversation with, let alone had a relationship with. They could've
stuck with the creepy Middle Ages motif all the way through the video,
but still, the band knows how to rub you the wrong way and get a laugh
out of you.

KRASHKARMA
- STRANDED
ho knew
that walking on the beach on a sunny day could be such a maudlin
affair? It turns out that the heavy metal duo KRASHKARMA are STRANDED
and we, the viewers, shouldn't be taken in by all of the glorious tides
coming in or the sight of drummer NIKI SKISTIMAS rollicking on the sand
and swimming underwater while glaring into the camera playfully and
seductively. That band doesn't quite sell us on their dire predicamanet
but the video is one hell of a blast. The video was released
months before their latest album MORPHED and we are left in
anticipation of what these two have in store for us visually.
TO
WHOM IT MAY - CALCULATE
hen a band
gets signed to a label, why not celebrate with a music video that
doesn't look like it was shot in your dad's garage? TO WHOM
IT MAY have been making some serious noise lately with theie album THE
GREAT FILTER - their first outing with the fledgling record label G4L
RECORDS - and propelling the album to respectable placings on all fo
the right charts is the album's lead single CALCULATE. We've
got no idea who the director is, but they've got that knack for moody
lighting, just like DAVID FINCHER had at the start of his career making
videos for MADONNA and AEROSMITH. Interpretation isn't one of
my strong suits so I'll simply say that this music video, set in a
decrepit building with a lone occupant tormented by the thunderous
sound of a band like TO WHOM IT MAY is something worth checking out.

KORE
ROZZiK - MiSTRESS
ORE
ROZZIK is another fellow that has been transformed by the power of
signing on the the dotted line. A few months ago, he was ceremoniously
added to the roster of CLEOPATRA RECORDS and his new album VENGEANCE
OVERDRIVE has been given a substantial push because of it. It's not
everyone that gets to open for OTEP for a string of shows. The music
video for MISTRESS was actually released a year ago, and because of the
recent signing to CLEOPATRA RECORDS, it is now getting a second life.
The New York City-based shock rocker looks like the guy that could land
himself into trouble and in this clip he's landed into the clutches of
smoking hot seductress.
GUNSHiP
- DARK ALL DAY
kay,
I'm embarassed now! A few months ago, I interviewed TIM CAPPELLO - the
sweaty, shirtless saxophone player made famous for his pelvic
thrusts in his brief appearance in the 1987 cult classic film
THE LOST BOYS. A couple of months ago, CAPPELLO released his first ever
LP BLOOD ON THE REED and at the same time contributed his one-of-a-kind
sax riffage to the single DARK ALL DAY by the British synthwave band
GUNSHIP. I didn't even ask him about the latter! This animated video is
an hommage to the very film that put CAPPELLO on the pop culture map
and is
filled with gore and blood thirsty vampires. CAPPELLO's sax playing is
simply icing on an electropop cake. Oh, and look for an appearance in
the video by the FROG brothers.
