MOG MOG

THE MUSIC BLOGGING NETWORK

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....

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.

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 ;)

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 :)

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.

cheers, Anna!

Anna says:

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 :)
