Bright colors, flowers with faces, amusement parks, and yet no Andre 3000. What’s Outkast without Andre 3000? Someone go see Idlewild and let me know what’s going on with that.

New-ish video from the Long Winters, from their new release Putting the Days to Bed. Get it while it’s hot. Why don’t record labels like to give directors credit? Why do I always have to hunt for this information? I’m going to make some calls and I’ll get back to you on that one.

The video for the Format’s The Compromise off their new album Dog Problems has just dropped. Do I even need to tell you when the videos feature stop-motion anymore? From now on, I’ll just mention when the videos don’t have stop-motion. It will be easier on all of us.
