Fishing — Water Sport from Hookz 3: Maccullochella peelii (2011) Last time we heard from Fishing they were bouncing rubber beats our way ‘cross the Pacific. Now the Aussie boys are back with a gorgeous EP that more aptly channels the South Pacific. Peep this video and you’ll see what I mean. This is really incredible footage! How the hell does the spearfisher hold his breath...

Lesands — Glowing from Sweet Skin (2011) video by Cargo Collective LA’s Lesands brings to our attention this sparkling VHS footage of a cheerleading meet in the 80s. You may conclude, as I did, that Lesands is quite fond of bouncing lycra-suited butts… which do, however, appear an ideal accompaniment to his beats.

The Alligators — Buckle Shoe Stomp (1964) Look at these cats! A Swedish garage band that lasted just about two years, from 1962-64. So more or less until they hit puberty. (They’re all about 13 years old in this video!) If you play guitar, practice this swinging move at home. I guarantee you’ll feel like a teen again. via Beyond the Beat

Virgin of the Birds — Let Me Be Your Bride from Banquet Years (Abandoned Love Records) Good ol’fashioned songwriting with artfully cryptic lyrics about family and a wedding, sung by a man who wants to be your bride. The video is a nostalgic trip through tear-jerkingly good times on Super 8. Virgin of the Birds, aka Jon Rooney, lives in Seattle, loves San Francisco more, and wishes ...
