That’s a real band, by the way.  ‘T’s’why I posted it here and not in slow forum.

 I hadn’t seen this before:

That was superb!  Went back and looked up the original, too.

Takes me back.

Goes so far through douchey it comes back around to quite enjoyable.

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Having seen them live...can confirm.  On both counts.

But I think it’s largely bluster, because if you watch the Eagles of Death Metal movie, he’s actually a great guy.

Didn’t you share that before?  Loved it then, love it now.

[Hopstretch]

Honestly can't remember. He has a new collaborative album out and that's what broke it loose. 

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Yeah, I remember because I went down the rabbit hole of first watching his other videos (especially the other Live Plus Près De Toi videos) and then listening to whole albums on Tidal and liking all of it.  Will check out the new album.

I liked the video particularly much because it shows all the instruments in enough detail that if you had a fetish for them, you could get off on the close-ups.  (I’m thinking of the Wurlitzer electric piano, Linn drum machine, and Roland string synthesizer, not just the two hot women.  Alright, maybe not the synthesizer.  I mean, who has a fetish for Rolands?)

[Hopstretch]

This is pretty terrific too. (I have a backlog.) Think it's their goodbye to Gord Downie, who was a friend and collaborator.

When she hits those high notes with that pure voice, my heart expands.

(Keanu Reeves voice) Whoa!

Your bizarre visuals are FREAKING ME OUT, MAN!

It's like slow trap.

Love that they're still doing exactly what they've always done.

Sort of naturally follows from earlier works?
