Increase Your Musical Knowledge With The b5 Media Music Channel’s Bloggers

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 - ‘Propane Nightmares’ Music Video Review | Combining Rock & Electronica

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 […]

Evanescence - ‘Bring Me To Life’ Music Video Review | Operatic Rock At Its Finest

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 […]

Beastie Boys - ‘Sabotage’ Music Video Review | Is This The Best Music Video Ever Made?

This is going to split people right down the middle. Not literally of course, that would just be sick, but it will divide people between those who love this video, and those who hate it.
Whichever camp you’re in, you can’t fail to realise what a stroke of genius it is, both in content and delivery.
Old […]

Weezer - ‘Buddy Holly’ Music Video Review | A Case For Bringing Back Happy Days?

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 […]

Marillion - ‘Easter’ Music Video Review | It Is Easter After All, Allow Me To Indulge

Is it Easter today? Oh crap, I’d better get to the shops and buy some Easter eggs for my nearest and dearest then. Or I could just listen to Easter by Marillion.
I’m reviewing this song today for no other reason than it is Easter Sunday, it’s as simple as that. I bet lead singer Steve […]

Limp Bizkit - ‘Rollin’ Music Video Review | Fred Durst Dancing Like A Loon…

It’s time for another dose of retro heaven today on Killed By The Video Star, as we go back to the days when Fred Durst actually had some credibility. Yes, those days did exist.
This isn’t my favourite Limp Bizkit video, but it is probably the best known one, and the song still gets played in […]

Buckcherry - ‘Sorry’ Music Video Review | I Thought It Was The Hardest Word?

Buckcherry are a new band on me, I’ve never heard of them! It seems like they’re one of those weird groups who seem destined to just stay in the States.
I only know about this song, Sorry, (no, I’m not apologising, that’s the title) because of I regularly check Billboard to review videos that my American […]

Radiohead - ‘Just’ Music Video Review | AKA What The Hell Did He Say???

After reviewing Mark Ronson’s new version of Just, I thought it was fitting to take a look back at the Radiohead original in all its weird, frustrating yet brilliant glory.
This version of the song is far superior, and I only realised how much this rocked after listening to it again because of Mark Ronson, so […]
