VIDEO: Black Kids "I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You"

Well it looks like the Black Kids have a bigger budget now...the video looks pretty nice! It also seems to be a different mix/recording of the song, it's a LOT cleaner...also probably due to a bigger budget. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. I kinda liked the lo-fi-ness of the original, but the song is still as awesome as ever none the less. I'm still patiently awaiting their proper full-length (as I'm sure a lot of people are), so until then...

SHOW RECOMMENDATION: Black Kids, The Lolligags, Judi Chicago, 11/15 @ The Star Bar

I love free shows & Black Kids.

Um, yeah...so Pop Death Squad is sponsoring the "Big Trouble in Little 5" showcase at The Star Bar in Little Five Points (Atlanta, GA) this Thursday (11/15) featuring those Black Kids I love so much, as well as The Lolligags (also awesome!), and Judi Chicago (whom I haven't heard yet but am looking forward to hearing). It all starts at 9pm, and it's FREE, FREE, FREE, FREE, FREE! Between the awesome-ness that these bands will undoubtedly bring in spades, and that amazing ticket price...this is a no-brainer, just show up (unless you're under 21. I assume it's 21+ up, since it's a bar).

The Black Kids & The Lolligags are also playing on Friday in Athens:
Fri. 11/16/07 - Black Kids, Lolligags @ Flicker Theatre (Athens, GA)
(tickets for this show are extremely limited, purchase tickets at Wuxtry)

GREAT NEW MUSIC: Black Kids "Wizard of Ahhhs"

A friend of mine who actually made it to this year's Athens Popfest, told me about this band, but for some reason I've just now gotten around to hearing their stuff. It happens, especially when you're deluged with new music everyday. Oh well, better late than never. Black Kids' demo EP, Wizard of Ahhhs, is currently available to download for free from their Myspace page. And I suggest that you do, it's rough but the songs are undeniably amazing. I really wish I had caught their live set at Athens Popfest, because I'm sure it was equally amazing. Both of these tracks off the EP are standouts, and both are highly recommended. Hell, the whole EP is highly recommended!
