Chastity – Children [Music Video]

Tags

2018, alternative, Brandon Williams, Canada, Chastity, Children, Group, indie, Music, Music Video, Musicians, punk, Review, Whitby

Chastity is one of those acts that I really want to see live.
Today the powerful music video for Children was released online.
Quoting – “‘Children’ channels the outrage of a community into a beautifully shot video that spotlights both the vulnerability and the solidarity of youth.”
The video is centred around an incident and events that followed in Williams hometown of Whitby. An off-duty police officer named Michael Theriualt and his brother allegedly beat a young black man, Dafonte Miller, with a steel pipe while he was walking near his home which left the victim blind in one eye.

Children is taken from the upcoming album Death Lust which drops on July 13, 2018 on Captured Tracks and Royal Mountain Records.

Mezzanine Turns 20!

Happy 420!
Who knew this album is 20 years old and came out on April 20, 1998.
Talking about Massive Attack‘s third album Mezzanine
Enough has been said about the album since it was a turning point where they delve into darker territory with their trip-hop/electronica sound.
It was their most successful album to date thanks in part to the music video Teardrop.
We can debate as long as we want which is their best, Blue Lines or Protection?
As long the music is good to listen to!
Anyways I am going to give you my Top 5 songs picks from the album!
