New Video: Justice - "DVNO"

This is the latest single for French outfit Justice, who are sticking with So-Me (who were responsible for the clip to D.A.N.C.E.) to handle their music video duties. Glad they did, then.

Preview For Björk's New Video

If you're familiar with Grizzly Bear, you may have seen their fantastic video for "Knife", which was made by Encyclopedia Pictura. Those guys have joined forces with design firm UVPH to work on Björk's next video for the track Wanderlust, and the pictures that have been released have been stirring up a mighty lot of hype. 

Have a peek:

Klaxons Bag It Up

Here's the Klaxons covering Blackstreet's 'No Diggity'. It's an amazing cover - they keep it simple yet the vocals make the track sound distinctly 'Klaxon-esque'. But really, while the song is all well and good, let's remember that my photoshop skills are what are really awesome here. Seriously, that took me only about 20 minutes. If New Idea are reading this, I'm available.

The final lineup is:

WEEN, SHARON JONES AND THE DAP KINGS, THE VINES, IRON AND WINE, BEIRUT, OPTIMO, THE BANG GANG DEEJAYS, THE DIRTBOMBS, THE PANICS, JENS LEKMAN, KID KOALA, BRITISH INDIA, THE BAMBOOS, SOUTH RAKKAS CREW, BUFFALO TOM, JAY REATARD, SCIENTISTS OF MODERN MUSIC, FUTURE OF THE LEFT, JANE BADLER AND SIR, KAMIKAZE TRIO, PIKELET, QUA, THE FROWNING CLOUDS, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, THE SEA AND CAKE.

In Rainbows Remix


It seems that U.S. hip hop artist, AmpLive, has created a mini-album of Radiohead-sampling hip hop drawn from the band's eighth studio album - In Rainbows.

Despite some mild controversy, the entire album is now available for free online.
Featuring the likes of Chali2NA of Jurassic 5 and Del The Funky Homosapien.

But hey, it's free, what more do you need to know!

New N*E*R*D - "Everybody Nose"

While In Search Of... was a great album (both the analog and digital versions), Fly Or Die left a lot to be desired, and yet everyone will no doubt lose it when Pharrell & Co. drop their next album N*3*R*D, sometime soon.


To whet your appetite "Everybody Nose" is available to stream at the Billionaire Boys Club blog, and I've gotta tell you, it's nothing all that special. All the same, here it is:

New We Are Scientists video - "After Hours"

This new track isn't anything amazing, but fortunately, the humour in the clip saves the song from complete mediocrity. Say what you like about their music, at least the guys are funny.

The Mars Volta Will Not Rest!

So The Mars Volta's fourth studio album, Bedlam In Goliath, is out today - and already there's new material on the horizon in the form of yet another solo album from lead guitarist Omar Rodriguez Lopez.

Entitled Calibration, its released on the 25th of February and features contributions from Chilis guitarist John Frusciante, keyboardist Money Mark and TMV partner in crime Cedric Bixler-Zavala.

This confirms the band as one of the most prolific of our time, Four studio albums, a live album, and now five solo albums - its like the 70's all over again!

Check out some clips here, and you can find tracklist details over at Line of Best Fit.
