Trailer Park: Side By Side
Side by Side finds Keanu Reeves putting on his producer hat for this documentary about the decline of film and the rise of digital. Looks pretty geeky, so I'm thoroughly looking forward to it - and Keanu has pulled out his address book to interview a who's who of film makers.

Promo Promo: Wooderson is back in business
Dazed and Confused legend Wooderson is back in business, for this promo for the Butch Walker and the Black Widow's track - Synthesizers. Quite the coup.
He's looking a little out of shape since his epic slow-motion entrance to Hurricane, but it's good to have him back. I get older ....he stays the same age.

Promo Promo: Girls
Just stumbled accross these two old promos for Girls: Hellhole Ratrace and Lust For Life. Both provide a peek into Girls' world (so to speak) and it's exactly what I expected.

Promo Promo: Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross & Karen O - Immigrant Song
It's possibly been a while since David Fincher made a promo - but he's knocked up these visuals for the cover of Immigrant Song used in his trailer for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. The visuals also make up the title sequence of the movie.

Nice, mellow, narrative, skateboards-and-girls video up for Kurt Vile's "In My Baby's Arms" track, from his recent marmot-approved album "Smoke Ring For My Halo".
Shot on a Windows phone, if you give a shit.

Promo Promo: Radiohead - Staircase
On the one hand it's not really a promo, on the other it only exists to promote something - a forthcoming full length episode of "From The Basement" with Radiohead doing King of Limbs.
And it's a new track.

Promo Promo: Nine Types of Light - The Movie
TV On The Radio's new album might not be the immediate attention-grabber that Dear Science was, but it's a grower. In support of the album, TVOTR's Tunde Adebimpe has directed an album-length promo, with a little help from his friends.
Warning: there's an 80's video-art vibe to the opening.
Watch at YouTube. Trailer version below.
