Toad’s Hot Video Action

Remember my pals Celebrity Chimp who played at the Toad Records launch night, back in July? Well they have a very shiny new video indeed for their song Not a Man. It was directed by Alex Puigcerver – pronunciation guesses, anyone? – and is bloody brilliant. Their Chimp Nights in London look like they’re doing incredibly well, and there are rumours of an EP release in the not too distant future.
MySpace video doesn’t embed on WordPress unfortunately, so you’ll have to click here to view it, but have no fear – it will not be a wasted trip. For those interested, here is a demo version of the original song:
Celebrity Chimp – I’m Not a Man
Celebrity Chimp – Pornstar
In other videographical news Love.Stop.Repeat, who played a private pre-opening party at the Bowery, Ediburgh’s splendidest new venue, the other week are back to play the actual opening party on Saturday. They have a mini album available from Fence Records (currently sold out, but more available here shortly) about which I was initially a little ambivalent. Their performance at the Bowery was so lovely, however, that I am now revisiting the record, and I think I was far too hasty. It’s really rather lovely and you should buy one as soon as they make some more.
Anyhow, they have a video blog on YouTube about their trip to Edinburgh and Anstruther last week, which includes footage of the Bowery show and an excerpt of an excellent Neutral Milk Hotel Cover. Watch enjoy, then come and see them on Saturday.

When I saw the title of this post I was worried you might have posted that other video you made.
Phew!
What, the Wave Pictures interview? No, no, that’s in another post altogether.
Wot, no batrachian tits & arse?? I’ve been cheated!! “Toad’s Hot Video Action” – bollocks!!
I’m not entirely convinced “videographical” is an actual word.
Nor “splendidest”, for that matter.
Shit, really. Fuck, and I looked them up and everything.
