I'm Diggin' Your Scene

Long-time loves The Raveonettes came out with a new album last week entitled In And Out Of Control, and although they appear to have long given up their rule book for playing in all B flat minor, no high-hat/ride cymbals, and always singing in harmony, the Copenhagen kids still seem to mingle all that's sweet and heavy in their new work.

The video to "Last Dance", which has some disturbingly Hitchcockian moments involving singing crows, so if you're even slightly ornithophobic you might think twice about clicking.



And speaking of the Raveonettes, I first heard of Minnesota-born Har Mar Superstar when he opened for the band on their Chain Gang Of Love tour several years ago and was taken aback by the startling sight of a balding Ron Jeremy look-alike spasmodically dancing alone on stage in his underpants. But as his latest album Dark Touches hits the stores the same week I'm finding him as delightfully infectious as his oddball persona.

The video for the new single "Tall Boy" also stars actress Eva Mendes, and some other attractive babes. Turn it up, you bastards.
