There's only one person that could unhook me from The Last Shadow Puppets' album {at least for a while}, and that person is Dale....
I kinda always liked The Kills, but I was always far away from liking them a lot. After listening to their new album, Midnight Boom, I'm there. Sexually charged and musically contagious, it's been on repeat since yesterday (sorry, monsieur Turner).
My only thought now is if they can get these vibes going when they perform live as well. Can they? If you've seen them live, do tell.
Here's the video for their latest single, Cheap and Cheerful:

Dedicated to the biggest EMCD this MOG town has ever seen....

My Trusted MOGs
good stuff there... he is EMCD king isn't he... we're very lucky that way ;)
I gotta give some EMCD props to blair... or as I likes to call him... b for introducing me to Jens Lekman... we'll have quite the MOGcrew attending that show at Coachella ;)
My Trusted MOGs
Not only is the recording a musical success, but the video's editing makes sense and has is timed to the music, unlike most videos where the editing is random. You picked another winner, Anna, and my withdrawal symptoms from your prolonged absence are subsiding.
My Trusted MOGs
Where is my list?
Okay, The Kills...got em. Nice
My Trusted MOGs
Lizzieness, Dale has a unique talent in finding out what you will get obsessed with....he is a pro...calm, guiltless, methodical, and he gets the job done....
Jens Lekman? I don't know who that is. runs over at youtube
Hey Charles! Wonderful that you think so. Having MOGgers share your musical likings makes one fill less lonely and less insane :) Agreed about the editing. It should be used as a tool to compliment and boost music, not to randomly connect images (unless, you know, it's being done so on purpose and with arty intentions and results). Awww, how sweet of you to say so. Though you do realize that you are encouraging me to ramble even more hehe ;)
Glad to hear that, Annie. I think that list we all have will be the death of us. Mine is currently longer than my.......well, it's long ;)
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs

Alright....is it just that I came from Darla's sexually charged post to this sexually charged post or do those flesh colored ice cream cones look like dildo's?! Haha!
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
Heya Todd! In Helen you should trust :)
Helen! "flesh colored ice cream cones look like dildo's" HAHAHAAH I did not expect this from you....Darla's post brought out the sauciness in us ;)
Oh brother...and I hadn't been EMCD-ed like this in a while, too hehe ahahhahha that T-shirt spoke the truth! I wish I could have The Kills added to it ;)
LIZZIENESS! I like ALot....song, video, voice, everything. I got EMCD -ed at my EMCD- ing post, figures...he reminds me a bit of Richard Hawley, that's always a good thing :) And yup, you and Blair can feel free to share the evilness :)
Joxy Joxy Joxy...I really shouldn't trust you on this one ;)
My Trusted MOGs
Wow, Helen sure is the saucy one. I'll never look at this video the same way again. Now to see what you kids are up to on Darla's post. The mayhem ...

My Trusted MOGs
Who says you can't survive on ice cream? Is that really true? Damn!
My Trusted MOGs

Mark, YES. :)
That's right, Darla! I should have trusted in Brian all along :D
Mikey, it's not true! Unless Helen's (SunshineDaydream) comment of "flesh colored ice cream cones look like dildo's" gets to us ahhahahha
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
WE worry about your boundaries sometimes Helen! ahahaha love your dildo comment though, tff!
Anna, LOVE that song/vid, tooo HOTTTTT!!!!!!
My Trusted MOGs
I've yet to check their full album but I already like what I've heard so far.
I was instantly hooked on their "Keep On Your Mean Side" back in 2003. Especially when you watch them live
What's annoying me at present is that Jamie Ince appears almost every single day of the week in the tabloids and free papers because of Kate Moss.
My Trusted MOGs
Love love love the record. It was on repeat for about a week, until I discovered Cut Copy:
"Far Away"My Trusted MOGs
the video is a little bit much x m€, but I dig thei® musik...
cheers, Anna!
My Trusted MOGs
You should also check U.R.A Fever, uncle A. Even hotter!
Michael, after seeing The White Stripes perform live and produce only 1/3 of their album energy and volume on stage, I'm very suspicious of how duos will be live. They do sound good in that video you posted tho! He's dating Moss? I learn a new gossip every day mwuahahha
Oh I lurve me some Cut Copy, Ty! And I found out today that they have a new album out. Oh the joy!
Glad to hear that, playpal. Cheers right back at ya :)
