Heavenly States (feat. Spoon)- Berlin Wall
The Heavenly States (ft. Britt Daniel) - "Berlin Wall" from Hippies Are Dead on Vimeo.
Really like this collaboration and video.
Kate Bush- Deeper Understanding
Check out this new video featuring Hagrid from Harry Potter. Why'd he shave the beard and long hair? He looks weird without it..

Stream the new Beastie Boys Album
Beastie Boys are countering album leaks by streaming the whole album themselves. Awesome.
Kills- The Last Goodbye (SXSW)
Watch a very heartfelt performance of The Kills playing at SXSW. Watch how emotional she gets at the end. I love it when artists show passion in their performances.
My Morning Jacket release weird invitation for Louisville Show
My Morning Jacket just announced a hometown show in Louisville. Watch the weird promo for it..

Strokes- Games (Conan)
Huge fan of everything Julian does but I can't stand behind these hats he's been wearing recently.. Love his voice on this song though and that's all that matters.

Beastie Boys- Make Some Noise
The Beastie Boys brought the stars out for their video for "Make Some Noise" This is part of the Fight for your Rights Revisited short film. The whole thing is going to be aired tonight on multiple MTV networks and 3 AM on Comedy Central.
Domo Genesis (Odd Future)- Cashmere
Speaking of Odd Future.. I earlier posted that we were celebrating 4/20 Earl Sweatshirt style. Domo is celebrating by releasing a new song. Not as intense as us.. We lost a couple of members.
Black Star performing at Paid Dues
Watch this video of Black Star performing in California. The combo of Mos Def and Talib Kweli makes my favorite rap duo. I really hope they release another LP. The world needs Black Star.

Devo- What We Do
We are big fans of innovation in music videos over here at Freak Out Music. Leave it to Devo to put out a fresh new innovative music video.. What year is it again? In this interactive vid you can scroll around and click on things that generate different responses. Pretty cool and I hope more bands begin to utilize technology in their videos.
Pusha T- My God
If you don't know who Pusha T is you might recognize him from Clipse. If you still don't know who he is.. Yeah he's the guy that raps with Kanye on Runaway. He's much more than that though and is quickly becoming one of my favorite rappers.

Oh Land- Perfection
Oh Land - Perfection (Live) from Oh Land Music on Vimeo.
Awesome new video from Oh Land.
Beady Eye- Across the Universe
It only makes sense that Liam would cover the Beatles (again) Oasis has always been compared to them and they were arguably the biggest UK band since the Beatles called it quits. I know this isn't Oasis but you guys get the idea. This was done for Japanese Relief.
Kanye Coachella Set
So did you guys stay up like me last night and watch Kanye's epic Coachella set? If not you can watch the whole thing right here. This set was insane and he proved that he didn't need to have special guests to headline this fest. This concert was definitely something special and another defining moment from Mr. West.
My Morning Jacket- Octoplasm
New My Morning Jacket song for your Monday morning. A little jazzy tune this time.

Radiohead release 2 new songs for Record Store Day
Supercollider
The Butcher
Let them soak in and then you can begin to wonder why these songs weren't included in their most recent album..

Arctic Monkeys- Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair
Arctic Monkeys being bad asses in this video. Awesome. I want to be Alex Turner.
Santigold (ft. Karen O) - Go
Not sure how long this YouTube will stay up, but this is the new Santigold song and it features Karen O from Yeah Yeah Yeahs. If the YouTube does go down, you can hear the song at the link below.
Santigold ft. Karen O- Go
G- Side - Came Up
A couple months ago we told you guys to be on the lookout for these guys. So with that being said check out their new music video and continue to look out for them.
MNDR- Cut Me Out
I really am digging MNDR. I truly think she is on the verge of stardom. Seeing her tomorrow at the Brooklyn Museum. And since the show is in a museum I'm going to get historical with my dancing and party like it's 1999.
Sidenote: I hope you guys don't judge the artists that we write about by my terrible puns. They have nothing to do with them so don't take it out on them. Thank You.
Watch The Kills Perform on Conan
Last night The Kills rocked Conan by performing their single "Satellite" I love the dancing backup singers in the background. It gives off a Gladys Knight and the Pips vibe. Maybe that's a stretch but the performance is still awesome.
Chris Martin covers Oasis at a small pub
In a pretty cool act of kindness, Chris Martin from Coldplay made a surprise appearance at a British pub. He played a full acoustic set but his cover of "Wonderwall" is what stood out. Watch a video that a fan took above. I wish this was in better quality.
Coachella Bands to Watch
Oh yes everyone it's that time of the year again. SXSW is a distant memory and Coachella is about to start and kick off music festival season. The greatest season of them all... This year has a sick lineup with Kanye, The Strokes, Arcade Fire and the Jonas Brothers. Wait what? That's the Kings of Leon not Jonas Brothers? My bad.. their last two records had me confused... Just kidding.. Sort of. Anyway lets get down to the important things and start laying out some more under the radar bands that you guys should check out by showing a video accompanied by a short blurb.. So let's begin.
Twin Shadow
What is it with this guy? At first glance he looks like just another Brooklyn hipster that tries too hard.. But after he sings it all makes sense. Hipsters could only dream of being this effortlessly cool. This guy is great and killed it at SXSW. Definitely worth checking out.

Theophilus London - Sorry To Interrupt + [Lyrics]
I just hope all you guys love this song as much as I do...THEO is the future of Hop Hip!
Foo Fighters live from Letterman Studios
Last night Foo Fighters played an almost 2 hour long show live at the Ed Sullivan Theater. Watch the whole thing in the video above!
My Morning Jacket- Circuital (Live)
Yesterday we posted the mp3 of this song. Now watch My Morning Jacket perform it live on VH1 Storytellers.
The Asteroids Galaxy Tour- The Golden Age
So if you have seen the new Heineken commercial, then you will recognize this. It's unabashed pure joy with a singer that's as hot as the tune.
Lil B- Charlie Sheen
Yeah Charlie Sheen may be played out, but I'm still all about Lil B. I love the fact that this guy does what he wants and is getting recognized for it. Lil B and Odd Future keeping the rap game.. weird.
LCD Soundsystem- Live Alone (Franz Ferdinand)
Remember that band LCD Soundsystem? Well before they broke up they covered Franz Ferdinand's "Live Alone" leaving their trademark sound to the song.

Childish Gambino- "Break (All of the Lights)"
Speaking of Kanye (wait—who, us?), check out the remake of Kanye’s “All of the Lights” from Childish Gambino AKA Donald Glover AKA that guy from Community. We would say he shouldn’t quit his day job, but that’s only because we like the show.
Break (AOTL) by Childish Gambino

TV on the Radio Debut Short Film
Taking a page out of Kanye's book, TV on the Radio put out an album length short film that is meant to be a "visual re-imagining of the record" I'm liking this trend of short films that coexist with albums. Looking forward to the Beastie Boys one next month.
My Morning Jacket- Circuital
The new My Morning Jacket song is now available on their website! Click the link below to go there and download it. I can listen to Jim James sing any day... I'm so excited that MMJ is back!
My Morning Jacket- Circutal

Arctic Monkeys- Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair
Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair by arcticmonkeys
Another new Arctic Monkeys song from their upcoming album "Suck it and See"
Alex Metric and Steve Angello- Open Your Eyes
It's man vs machine at the most literal sense in this crazy music video.

Sade- The Moon and the Sky (Remix ft. Jay Z)
The Moon And The Sky (Remix Featuring JAY Z) by SadeOfficial
Oh yes ladies and gentlemen, this collaboration has happened.. And it's on fire. Give it a listen.

Tapes n Tapes- Freak Out (acoustic)
Back in February we here at Freak Out Music claimed this song as our anthem. Now Tapes n Tapes recorded a new acoustic version. It's equally as good as the original so we are claiming this as the co-anthem for Freak Out Music.
Foster the People- Pumped Up Kicks
This song is pretty awesome. Definitely going to start doing more research on these guys.
Ellie Goulding- Starry Eyed
Watch UK darling Ellie Goulding make her national TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel. Get ready for the Ellie Goulding explosion this year.
Lil B- Angels Prayer
Listen to Lil B rap another story.. This time he does it over Kanye's "Devil in a Red Dress" beat. Great stuff here.
Fight for your Right- Revisited
This is an awesome trailer for an upcoming 30 minute short film from the Beastie Boys. My personal favorite part is the end when Will Ferrell is playing the cowbell. I need more cowbell Will!

Fictionist- Blue-Eyed Universe
So lets take a break from these hardcore songs for a second.. I had to get it out of my system. Anyway I found out about these guys through Rolling Stone's cover contest. I really like this song.
Atari Teenage Riot- Blood in my Eyes
What's up with the blog going all out hardcore with the songs so far today? I wish I knew. Listen to this song and then burn things.. That is all.
Young Legionnaire- Numbers
This is the side project from the bass player from Bloc Party. This is some pretty heavy stuff. I hope that Bloc Party will get back together, but with Kele doing his dance album and now this it isn't looking like a reunion is happening anytime soon. It's funny if you combine this style with Kele's solo album you'll get Silent Alarm.. Just saying..
Snoop Dogg (Ft. Wiz Kalifa)- This Weed Iz Mine
A music video with Snoop Dogg and Wiz Kalifa starring marijuana.. Any of you guys shocked?
Tuesday, April 5, 2011
Gang Gang Dance- Mindkilla
How about this for a video? This is a crazy light show that flows perfectly with the music.
Girls Names- Bury Me
Girls Names - Bury Me from stereogum on Vimeo.
This song has an old school sound to it. Very vintage. I bet the hipsters will eat this band up..
Monday, April 4, 2011
Danger Mouse (Ft. Jack White)- Two Against One
This is off Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi's new album "Rome" coming out next month. Pretty awesome.
Royal Bangs TV Debut
The Royal Bangs made their TV debut on Letterman this past Friday. So glad they sounded good. I've been hyping these guys nonstop and seeing them on the big stage put a tear in my eye.. Hope to see them make more TV appearances in the future.

Strokes Played Homecoming Gig at MSG Last Night
As the thousands of hipsters ironically packed into MSG you could feel something special would go down as NY heroes The Strokes played their first show in the garden. As the lights went out the crowd was surprised to see Elvis Costello take the stage. "April Fools motherfuckers!" he yelled and then went into a quick three song set of "Radio Radio" "Pump it Up" and "(What's so Funny about) Peace Love and Understanding" Minds were blown. After his set the headliners took the stage. The Strokes have been getting a lot of flack for phoning it in recently at their shows. This wasn't the case tonight...

The Turkeys: Story of the Band that Never Was
I remember two years ago I was given the task of covering hot buzz band The Turkeys. Might have been the worst weekend of my life as these guys all were the worst of the worst.. Brilliant music but terrible people. Their struggles with alcohol, drugs, voodoo and enormous egos caused them to break up that weekend.. Above is the cover of their never released album "Fallen on the Side of the Road" These guys fell alright... They fell hard.
The names Peter, Jackson, Justin and Matt were looking to be as recognizable as John, Paul, George and Ringo. Didn't work out that way.. At all. I'll give you the cliff notes of my time with these turkeys.
