The Ugliest Smile In Rock'n'Roll

How do you spend a obscene amount of money in a week? Well I some how have managed to do that. Dickhead me. As far as I can recall it was on some pretty good stuff and things so I shouldn't really grumble. I think it was mainly booze really. But what fun it was spending.
Between battling broken cars and financial loss I have been whoring my bands EP out to people. It officially came out on Monday. The Ergon Carousel is loose. Get it from Holy Roar Records Big Cartel page.
My other band Atavist have the Nadja colaaboration out on Profound Lore Records as well. As well as a 3-way split CD to coincide with the Nadja/Atavist/Sotari tour next month. Sweet.
A good friend of mine recently made a group of us sit through a compilation of 80's music vids, which he makes a point of listening/watching before we always go out. These are a memory of that DVD. And I have never seen them before.
First off....

Its so funny how creepy he is about this girl, sniffing her hair and everything. And gone are the days when the videos speech ran over the music. What a shame.
Then there is this...gotta love Chevy Chase. And the obvious bass break on this song. With phase and everything courtesy of the great Bakhiti Kumalo, which despite popular rumour is actually played ona 6-string bass, but the second half is the first half reversed in pre-production. Geeky fact.

You should try and track down Chevy Chase's album he released back in the 80's. A trend amongst actors at the time.
