A gem of a video

Found this video of Sonseed lipsynching "Jesus is a friend of mine" via Maggie Dawn's blog, but a post describing the phenomenon which is Sonseed is here. There is a brilliantly unconcerned innocence about the whole thing. This isn't post-modern irony, it's just people oblivious to how naff they might look enjoying themselves.



Terrific. Apparently you can download the whole album here. I haven't.

Check out the clip on Youtube with Marilyn Manson visuals and Sonseed music - then at least you'll be able to get the melody out of your head.
Let's not forget that this is contemporary with U2!

Will check that out, Tim.

Contemporary with U2, yet somehow locked in the variety shows of 1975 in terms of genre.

We will never see the likes of them again.
