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 […]
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 […]
There is a fine line between being subtle, and having just too God damn much going on with a song. And this, The Way That I Love You by Ashanti is a fine example of that line being crossed.
Both the song and the video have far too much going on, and here’s why.
However strong Ashanti’s […]
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 […]
I’ve loved Green Day ever since they burst on to the scene with this video. I know they’ve changed a bit since then, but this song, and video still stand up to scrutiny 13 years after it was first released.
I remember the debate about what kind of music this was when it first came out: […]
I was never in to Blind Melon at the time they were actually around, only hearing them later because of my girlfriend, and her eclectic taste in music.
This video however, seems to have been remembered fondly by not just fans of the band, but everyone who watched MTV in the early nineties.
It is of course […]
This is Missed The Boat, the new release from American indie rockers Modest Mouse.
It’s only after doing a quick bit of research on the band for this review, that I realised how long Modest Mouse have been around. I’ll be honest and admit I’d never heard of them before the brilliant Float On came out […]
This was the début single by British Indie group The Magic Numbers. It’s an odd song, but once you hear it, you won’t be able to get it out of your head for days.
When I first heard it, and them, I assumed they were American, as they kind of have this odd inflection to their […]
Watching this video takes me back to the old skool, when I was more in to dance music and Drum’n’Bass than the Indie and Rock that I’m in to now.
I would assume a lot of people won’t have ever seen this video, heard the song, or even know of Roni Size, but after seeing this, […]
