Geeky Video Review: "Drink To Moving On" Grand National
Electronic music, without an interesting theme or purpose, might as well be elevator music. That's where the U.K.'s Grand National add that certain rock spice to the mix where you can groove without falling asleep. They sound a bit like if the BeeGees got warped 35 years into the future, had their vocals pitch-shifted down a couple octaves, and were introduced to a drum machine.
Their latest record Kicking The National Habit has quite a few lovely rocktronic gems and "Drink to Moving On" is certainly one of them. Add in a video that has a not-so-subtle game reference and you get some great geeky chillaxin' tunes. The idea of block people losing their "heads" and being discriminated against doesn't really make any of us that ruthlessly clipped lines and got to level 10 on Tetris very emotional though. Still, it's a fun concept video!
