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 […]

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, […]

I’ve already given The Feeling some airplay here on Killed By The Video Star, but as none of you seemed to notice, or care, I thought I’d try again. I warn you, if I get no comments this time, I’ll keep plugging their videos until someone takes notice!
This is the second song from their second […]

It’s Saturday, so time for a bit of old skool to get highlighted. Here we have Weezer with the brilliant Buddy Holly.
I’ve already expressed my love for Weezer, when I reviewed The Sweater Song, and I love this song and video even more than I do that one.
The song has an unswervingly raucous feel to […]

British band The Kooks are continuing their mission to become completely Americanised, as can be witnessed in this, their latest video for Always Where I Need To Be.
As a big British music fan, as anyone who regularly reads Brit Music Scene will know, I find it sad when home-grown artists feel the need to change […]

I can’t help myself, she’s gorgeous, and more so in this video than I’ve ever seen her. So when I was busy deciding which song to review today, this stood out for me.
But enough old man perving, time to concentrate on what we’re here to do: critiquing the song, video, and the girl herself.
The song […]

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 […]

The Feeling are one of those British bands which could make it big in the US if only hip hop and R’n’B didn’t dominate the American charts so totally.
They have a very universal sound, which should appeal to everyone who likes a good pop song, as well as those of us who are in to […]

Being in the UK, certain bands appear, then disappear and the reappear again years later. Jimmy Eat World are a band which keep finding their way back in to my consciousness.
This is their latest single, Always Be, which sounds softer and more measured than last time I heard from them. In fact they sound […]
