Joan of Arc - A Tell Tale Penis
Video for the song "A Tell Tale Penis" off of the new Joan of Arc album Boo Human.
Laurel Collective - 'Vuitton Blues'
Where to even start when describing The Laurel Collective...? Collective by name and by composition also, the six piece (whittled down from nineteen a year ago) comprise members hailing from Wales, England, Nigeria and Italy.
The Laurels are a genre trashing six piece led by the twin attack and contrasting vocals of front men Martin Sakutu and Bob Tollast. Imagine the motley crew spirit of such misfit gangs as The Specials and Dexys mixed with the rhythmical assault and groove of Sly Family Stone, and blended with the psychedelic pop sensibilities of Super Furry Animals and you'd be half way there.
The Laurel Collective are most definitely not your straight forward, ready-for-pigeonholing indie band.

The Shortwave Set - Now Til 69
The second single from the South London trio's second album, produced by Danger Mouse is the relentless swirling psychedelia of "Now Til 69". Yearning for the forever unobtainable, and underpinned with a sense of the fruitless pursuit, "Now Til 69" is The Shortwave Set with "pop" turned up to eleven, an addictive collage of Roxy-esque squelches, Spector drums, and The Fifth Dimension on vocals. Single released 4th August 2008

Alltruisms- Nine Digit Number
Video for the song Nine Digit Number, the first single from the new Alltruisms album, Clusterbombs on Gravel Records.
The Pharmacy - Tropical Yeti Song
Although you might expect to see a giant hairy animal sipping a mixed drink on some barren island, the music video for The Pharmacy’s song “Tropical Yeti Song” portrays exactly nothing of that nature. This catchy synth-like melodic song is easy to follow along with and is jolly in nature. Once again The Pharmacy is up to their usual frolicking and nonsense and truly does bring out the character and persona of the band. Check them out on Myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/pharmacy
The Pharmacy - Little Toys On A Shelf
The Pharmacy is the definition of Indie Rock. Their new music video for “Little Toys on a Shelf”’ off of their album Choose Yr Own Adventure, is completely shot by a hand-held camera, which connects you to the music with a comforting sense of home. This easy-to-listen-to track lifts your spirits, and complemented with the video, takes you on a trip reminiscing of your favorite vacation filled with playful antics and time spent with friends.
MP3: The Pharmacy - Little Toys On A Shelf
We Were The States - Up Your Sleeve
Rhythmically driven with heavy fluctuating bass lines leading the way, the music video for “Up Your Sleeve” by We Were States takes you on a electrifying ride to a dingy club filled with beautiful women, some sketchy characters and enough vendetta to satisfy the even most lustful. Off of their new album, Believe The Thieves, these self-claimed garage rockers are saturated with so much energy, it is impossible not to get up and dance and rock out. We Were States is a straight up no-frills band with charisma to spare. Check them out on Myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/thestates
Bridges and Powerlines - Uncalibrated
Definitely don’t miss out on the new single by Bridges and Powers called “Uncalibrated” which is as much fun as it looks. The music video depicts our long lost favorite, the sock-puppet, rocking out to this German-pop-like song. Headed with heavy synthesizers, this upbeat song starts off on a fast beat and stays that way the entire length of the song. Their new album Ghost Types was just released, so be sure to check it out before everyone else! Check them out on Myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/bridgesandpowerlines

"Hi Hot Video Cup,
I'm emailing from the Green Man Music Festival in the UK. I love your site and I wanted to get in touch and say hi.
We've just announced our final line up for this year's festival on 15th, 16th and 17th August 2008 which includes Peth, Spiritiualized, and Super Furry Animals (you can see the whole line up below).
But we are looking for one last band to open the festival. We want your help and the music loving public's help us discover this band. So we started a search called Green Poll.
This is how it works:
- Bands register for Green Poll on our site http://www.thegreenmanfestival.co.uk/greenpoll
- The public vote for the bands they like and get a chance to win a pair of tickets
- Band with most votes plays Green Man attended by 10,000 people and they also get 6 extra tickets
Anybody can enter Green Poll signed or unsigned. There's tickets to be won, and new bands to discover.
I thought you and your readers would be perfect to help us find the right band. So it'd be really cool if you can mention it on your site."

Wild Beasts -'The Devil's Crayon
The Devil's Crayon sees Tom Fleming swap vocals duties with usual lead singer Hayden Thorpe. With its refrain of "We are so many tiny pieces" and Tom's yearning delivery, the song shimmers in widescreen around a sense of location, melody and wonder at the scale of things. The Devil's Crayon sounds like the theme song to a new kind of very English, (probably un-filmable) road movie.

We Are Scientists - Chick Lit
The Song
"Chick Lit tells the story of a young girl named Agatha who one day, while collecting fire wood to blend into an immune-system boosting power shake, encounters a magic well. She knows the well is magic because it smells like Axe, and so she nervously calls three desperate wishes into its still black depths. There isn't a lot of room for storytelling in a three minute pop song, unless you're Bright Eyes, so that's where the story ends, but we definitely intend to pick it up in another song somewhere down the line. For now, try to revel in the promise of this initial set-up."
The Video
"We made a video. In it, we play pirates who contemplate a change in career when they learn that they could double their salaries by driving a semi truck."
