Varga was a metal band from Hamilton who put out a couple of decent albums in the mid-nineties. Beavis and Butt-head liked them so much that they decided that “There should be more bands like this… There should be one of these speed metal bands, like, everywhere. Like at the mall, and you know, like… […]

I’m posting this because it’s awesome. But like all guilty pleasures, especially those involving Phil Collins, I feel like I have to qualify it. Let me acknowledge, first of all, that the whole “video about making a video” concept is a tough one to get away with. So tough, in fact, that they don’t fully […]

Not only did Kid Creole and the Coconuts write a great song, but that song went on to become the basis for an equally great video. And unlike a lot of the stuff I post here, this one happens to be a great way to kick off a Friday. By the way, this isn’t the […]

Continuing on a theme, I might as well throw this one out there. A bold new direction for the KLF, and a weird but wonderful comeback for Tammy Wynette. Check it out.

Not only is this one a classic, but it’s also a major moment in the history of Canadian hip hop. And yeah, if you lived here in 1998, and you had a TV or a radio, then I’m sure I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know. But man, look it up. Canadian hip […]

I’m taking a cue from my friend Ram on this one; he posted this video on his own site a couple of weeks ago. It’s a fun time capsule, and it still holds up as a track. Thanks, Ram! It’s been a little while since I’ve done any regular DJing of my own, aside from […]

Frankly, I’m impressed that this song has been ubiquitous for months and I’m not yet sick of it. Quite the opposite, in fact; it’s been in my head all week, and I’m not complaining. As for the video, you can’t go wrong; it’s an impressive clip, and not just from an animation standpoint. Plus, am […]

Underworld have just released a video, via their website, for the first single from their upcoming album. It’s called “Scribble,” and like most Underworld singles, it’s pretty damned great. The album, which is currently untitled, will be released at some point this summer. In the meantime, you can download the track for free through the […]

Hey, check this one out. The song has been a favourite of mine since its release eight years ago. I come back to it every once in a while, and I love it every time. As for the video, it’s an impressive piece of animation that complements the single nicely. Good work, Schneider TM!

If you’ve never seen this video, which hit the airwaves in 1993, then I really shouldn’t give it any sort of introduction. It’s the sort of thing you should really just watch with as few preconceptions as possible. If you’ve never seen the video, but you’ve heard the song as it appears on the album, […]
