Video Thrills: “Video Thrills”.
December 7, 2011, 0 comments
Man I do know I’m kinda late on this but as I seriously don’t have the slightest clue how I could overlook this piece in the first place, here are some indispensable words on Video Thrills‘ self-titled release that was recently dropped via AMDISCS INYRDISK and Animal Image Search. Video Thrills is an incredible collection of ten muffled weirdo transmissions, a true h-pop heaven that’s as glaring and shiny as everything we’ve come to love in recent years from The Skaters to Luke Perry and beyond, all the way to Ferraro’s latest solo movements. If you think all this sounds utterly derivative you’re not totally mistaken, yet Video Thrills’ one to three-minute snippets feature loads of hilarious ideas that simply make a whole lot of fun to listen to, and all in all the effort is highly melodic and quite sophisticated indeed. We all might be stepping into the post-hypnagogia phase right now but damn it’s still just fine that projects like Video Thrills exist.
