New Brontosaurus Chorus – Louisiana
Six months on from their album, the band with my favourite name of the year are back with a single just in time for Halloween. The song itself is typical of the band. It’s a cheerful sounding little indiepop number with some instrumentation that’s more complex than you might expect. Of course, ultimately it’s just eight people making a joyful racket, but hey, isn’t that what being in a band is all about?
Best of all, they’ve also come up with a video to suit the occasion too. It’s your typical scary movie fare, with a deceased band member leaping out of their coffin and turning the others into zombies and then the inevitable fightback. It’s also surprisingly violent. It’s not everyday that you get a music video with limbs being pulled off and chainsaw decapitations.
Louisiana will be released as a free download single on October 31 (that’s this Saturday!) and will include a bunch of remixes of the song. All from those nice people at PopArt London.
