When we evaluated the Black Lips' 200 Million Thousand, the general idea was catchy, interestingly textured songs, boringly predictable shtick. In the Chris Taylor-animated, drummer Joe Bradley-directed video for "Short Fuse" we get zero shtick, because the Atlanta band's not around to pour their PBR on our heads or remind us they once went to a strip bar. Instead, it's a literalist (and successfully vintage) take on the track: When Cole Alexander sings about eyes wide open, we see wide open eyes; the postman lyric brings the postman. We also see Humpty Dumpty have a great fall and, of course, plenty of (surprisingly handsome) short-fused TNT do its thing.Continue reading New Black Lips Video - "Short Fuse"...

Black Lips recently released the album Underneath The Rainbow, and now have a video for the track “Funny.” Starring the band playing on stage while puppeteers make marionettes dance around them, it’s an easygoing and silly video that must have been a good time to make. At least it’s definitely a relief fro...

Atlanta garage-rock miscreants the Black Lips have a history of playing with random-ass famous people; one of the worst shows I ever saw was one where they backed up GZA at SXSW a few years ago. Things worked out a lot better earlier today in Philadelphia, where the band was playing one of WXPN’s Free [...]
