VIDEO VACUUM - Mickey Mickey Rourke, Cerebral Ballzy, Vitamins, Apparat

Time for some visual shenanigans, and this Video Vacuum is all about Back To The Future - four bands that we have championed extensively in the past, showing clips of where they are headed in the future. Exciting times...

First up is Miller Rodriguez, or as we know him, Mickey Mickey Rourke. Its been a bit quiet on this front, but he now has a rather slick video for his track 'Satanic Youth Brigade' off his Magic User EP. Its an arresting video, also augmenting the warped production of the song, thus making it more accessible and Im appreciative of this. Its a solid track, for sure.



New York reprobates Cerebral Ballzy have been going gangbusters this year, pushing their self-titled LP to all and sundry. Their connection to Adult Swim has certainly done wonders for their exposure, and here is another visual treat that showcases a track from Cerebral Ballzy. Featuring 'Junky For Her', it's all pretty straightforward, albeit reminiscent of the grimy horror of the 80s - much like the band itself.

Denver act Vitamins impressed the hell out of me with their No Notion Of Anything Just Whatever Is What/The Disappearance of David Lee Powell 7" earlier in the year, and we showed both film clips for those tracks here and here. Now is their new clip, a nicely warped video for 'Vimanas', which precedes the exciting news that there is a full length release in the works!

Lastly we have Apparat. The amazing sound LP The Devil's Walk is almost upon us, and here is the video for the great track 'Black Water'. The video is typically arty, slick and slightly dark, just like the German himself...
