I'm not a huge Down With Webster fan. Let's just get that out of the way. It's no disrespect to them. They make good music and are really kind of a big deal - it's just that most of their fans are 16-year-old girls and, well, I'm not one of them.

Anyway, while I may be indifferent about the band, I'm really loving their new video for "Big Wheels". Finding the boys inside an old Nintendo game cartridge, we see them perfectly recreate scenes from Mario Kart, Duck Hunt and Super Mario Bros., among other awesome classic games. 

Wow, this video takes me back to my youth!

iPhones are amazing. But, they're even more amazing when they're humanized. 

Gay Australian singer Brett Every's single "Man Walks Into a Bar", from his latest album, Menu, is a ballad about a hypothetical scenario where a 40-year-old encounters his 20-year-old self in a bar.

What grabs your attention is that the video is a stop-motion animated video uses iPhones as the two main characters, in a bar populated by other cell phones. Points for using the older model iPhone as the older man. 

But, my favourite has got to be the stripper phone at 1:15. Hilarious!

I never heard of Bad Meets Evil before. The rap duo that is made up of Eminem and Royce da 5'9 apparently had a song on Em's first album, and then broke up after Royce had a falling out with Eminem's group, D12. And now they're back with a new EP coming out called Hell: The Sequel. 

The lead single "Fast Lane" is classic Eminem - fast spitting rhymes a clever wordplay. And the video is pretty cool, with animated lyrics acting as props and visual gags throughout the video.

Here's my beef. I'm sick of all the homophobic and misogynistic talk. I know that's a hip hop standard and it's all just posturing. And usually, I turn a blind eye to it.

But, then when the whole last half of the song is them talking about the penises, masturbating and ejaculating - it all starts to sound really gay. And, suddenly, all that posturing seems like a front for what's really going on.

Remember when Moby was at his peak and his video for "Natural Blues" kind of made Christina Ricci cool again?

I wonder if that's going to happen for Heather Graham, who plays a sword-weilding angel of mercy - similar to the one Ricci played in "Natural Blues" - in his latest video "The Day" from his upcoming album Destroyed.

The video, and Heather, is gorgeous and seemingly influenced by Kanye West's amazing "moving painting" for "Power".

As for the song, it's a electro-punk reflection on death and regret. All in all, it's breathtaking.

Happy Mother's Day!

If there's one thing I love more than a good indie act, it's a good indie act that features a cello and violin as part of it's roster.

And if there's one thing I like better than a godo music video, it's a video that features some cool animation. 

So, Ra Ra Riot, from Syracuse, New York have scored major points for me with their latest video "Too Dramatic" from their second album Orchards. 

Having toured with Tokyo Police Club and playing at South by Southwest, this band is pretty exciting and worth checking out.
