Yesterday, I wrote a post to promote two videos which I thought should get greater attention. Hopefully this meant you watched the offerings from The Bees and The Mooney Suzuki, and increased your musical knowledge a little bit.
This post was part of an endeavour by the whole of the b5 Music Channel to suggest some […]

Pendulum are a new Australian band who have relocated to the UK as they know it is the Mecca of decent music. Just ask Dave over at Brit Music Scene, oh hang on that’s me! However, don’t tell Lauren at Oz Music Scene, or she’ll kill me.
After starting as producers and remixers, they are now […]

The b5 music channel is today celebrating the diversity of our music loves by compiling a list of songs that you should all add to your iPod or mp3 player. But obviously with this being a video blog, that wouldn’t quite do it.
So here instead are two classic videos which I adore but are woefully […]

It’s the end of April, yes, another month has gone by. So I thought I’d take us back in time a little while for today’s review, with Bring Me To Life by Evanescence.
This is like a genre all to itself, with a strong operatic voice singing over the top of some classic rock guitars. Call […]

The Mystery Jets are a five piece Indie band from the UK who you probably haven’t heard of as yet. No, that’s not me being snobby, but unless you’re British, and in to new Indie, it’s just a statistical fact.
So I am here to teach you, and to that end, here is their new single, […]

The last few weeks have been quite tricky for me here on Killed By The Video Star, mainly because the videos that I was reviewing all tended to be uninspiring pieces of crap.
There were a few gems of course, and I travelled back in time a little bit to ensure not every review was a […]

Along with millions of other people around the world, I was entranced by Gnarls Barkley in 2006 when they released the magnificent Crazy.
I may be sick to the back teeth of it now, unless it’s one of the bizarre remixes which are all over YouTube, but at the time it was a breath of fresh […]

If you’re currently residing in the US, you may well have heard this song, but might not have seen this particular video for it, as there is another one knocking about.
Rather than a monkey doing the housework, this one features British acting legend Bob Hoskins miming the lyrics while acting out a recreation of the […]

The Futureheads are an amazing British band who have taken a whole host of influences, as well as their own style, and fine tuned it in to a unique sound.
They’re just about to embark on a UK tour, and have a new single out, but I thought we should go old school, and revisit what […]

Vampire Weekend are an Indie band from New York who were recommended to me over the weekend by one of my friends, and here is their current single A-Punk.
I’m glad I got turned on to this band so early in their career, as they rock. Straight away they remind me of a British bands called […]
