Music Video Monday: Getting A Little Animated

Welcome back to Music Video Monday, where we play the best Music Videos out There. We're going to do something a little different this time. We're getting a little animated.  This video from Yancy popped up in my Youtube feed the other day, and let me say, it is a snappy little video about Joseph and his Coat of Many Colors.

The difference continues with a little bit of a delayed video. Christmas is over, but I just discovered this video  from the now Synthpop band We Are Leo. It is a definitely Animated Dancing In A Snow Globe. Hey, here in the Northeast it may snow as late as May.

Finally, we take an entirely different path. This is just discovered. Project Aegis is a supergroup started by Matt Smith of Theocracy. In this case the proceeds from the song go 100% to Legacy Music, which provides music lessons and instruments to Children and Teens from Difficult Backrounds. Listen, Headbang, Buy. 

That does it for this edition of Music Video Monday. Happy President's Day everyone. Until next time, I am Awaiting Your Reply.

Venus and Mars are Alright: The 2017 Platinum Vinyl Awards 3rd Qtr - Rock

Rock finishes are three way tie to start the single genre posts here as we wrap the 3rd Quarter Pool Entries for #PlatVnyl8. After this there are actually only two more genres to go. Let's get to it.

Rock Music

• At The Wayside - The Breakdown and The Fall
• Decyfer Down - Acoustic EP
• Jordan Feliz - The River (Deluxe)
• We Are Leo - The Rush and The Roar
• 68 - Two Parts Viper

Not much to say here. A lot of good choices. Decyfer Down is the latest of bands that have figured out how to Rock Acoustic. It is a good trend. Acoustic doesn't have to be tame. Dance is next. Until then, I am Awaiting Your Reply.

Music Video Monday: Giants

Welcome Back to Music Video Monday. It's been a long time, but I am going to get things back on track. And before I go too long into this, Happy Independence Day. This is year 241 of our Liberty as One Nation UNDER GOD.

We begin with We Are Leo (for the Righteous are as bold as a lion). This is Dimensions.

Next Up we have a somewhat older video, but it goes with a recent Album. This is Tauren Wells, formerly of Royal Tailor, but now on his own. From The recently released Hills and Valleys this is Love Is Action.
And Finally, for our last video we go North of The Border. One of The Night Beat's favorite Canadians, Valerie Anne Poxleitner, known musically as LIGHTS. From her upcoming album and graphic novel Skin and Earth this is Giants.
That does it for this edition of Music Video Monday. If you haven't already (my town has had an underwhelming celebration already), enjoy the Fireworks. Until next time, I am Awaiting Your Reply.
