We're a geek culture podcast and blog covering video games, music, food and more. We are the kinds of people who evangelize whatever we are into - it could be anything - but it's usually pretty geeky. We're casual, conversational, NSFW and hopefully interesting. We hope you enjoy it.

Geeky Video Review: Modern World, I'm not pleased to meet you.

posted by Mike on September 7, 2006 1:00 AM in Music

Montreal's evocative Wolf Parade put out the fantastic taped effort Apologies to the Queen Mary earlier this year and their first music video is for the song Modern World.

In a digital music age where everyone can make an album on their laptop, and the vast majority of pop music singers whitewash vocal imperfections with AutoTune, this stop-motion masterpiece rings so true. It's not a conspiracy theory. Human bands are being replaced by machines to sell records.

Such a stark reminder as this makes my rallying cry (at least for this week): Long Live Analog!!!
