Posting update

Due to a series of happy accidents, I will be writing reviews of shows put on by Taylor Johns House, The Tin Angel and its affiliated venues in Coventry. Reviews of these shows - and more! - will be posted to Taylor Johns House' page on Wordpress. All other shows, album reviews, band features and the like will be posted directly onto MOG, with links from Blogspot posts and Twitter feed.

Placebo - Bright Lights (video)

NB. Am struggling with MOG, which seems to enjoy the act of crashing my computer on a regular basis, so music article thingys get posted here.

International superstars Placebo (and my third favourite band in the world) have released the video for the third single from Battle For The Sun through their ingenius online advent calendar. The single version of 'Bright Lights' is slightly different to the album recording, with a new mini-bridge and lyric ("bright lights in black holes"), and the lower vocal part in the verse is removed - which is a shame. The video is directed by John Kennedy and produced by RedJam.

Blogging meets Spotify, and yes, it does say $5 a month - good idea, oui?
