I don't usually furnish you fuzzlings with links to music videos, as I don't much care about music videos to begin with, but Head Automatica are good enough that this warrants our attention: the lads from Strong Island have put together a lil' clip for 'Lying Through Your Teeth', from the new album Popaganda. If you use Quicktime, click here. For Windows users, check this out.

Thrice have Myspaced everyone on their list to inform us all of the doings surrounding their next project: a four-disc concept record or sorts based on the four elements: earth, air, water and fire. From what it says here, it sounds like this thing'll practically write itself - and really, isn't that every band's dream? I think so. No title or anything given for this project, but singer Dustin Kensrue told me last spring that it will "out-prog Coheed & Cambria," which bespeaks pure awesomeness.

I haven't really listened to Beck in a very long time(like, since high school), but he's persisted in making what is allegedly good music, and last year's Guero reestablished his rep, so I'll throw the Beck-Man a bone and hype his new album, The Information. Three years in the making - Mr. Hansen had to backburner the project due to Guero's success and subsequent touring - the new album is produced by Nigel Godrich(Radiohead), and it's in your hands October 3rd, unless of course you know what "the internet" is, in which case you already know all the choruses.

Snow Patrol are awesome. And know how you can tell they're on a major label? All the songs on their Myspace are cut off after about a minute! Some people need to get their heads out of their derrieres.

Is it just me, or do Anberlin and SOTY never tour without each other? [punknews]

And speaking of Anberlin, singer Stephen Christian's side gig Anchor & Braille have some new music online over here. The outfit features Christian on vocals as well as Copeland genius Aaron Marsh.
