A very meaningful insight into the office worker’s life from Evil Nine in their music video They Live!

With hints of True Blood’s opening theme, Evil Farm Children give us Brain Buffet.

The whole film was shot in Leeds, West Yorkshire with local locations including the huge open space in Hyde Park and the Brudenell Social Club. The locations that were selected all suited the grittiness and bleak apocalypse of the lo-fi style whilst maintaining the accessibility needed between sets. Though no actual sets were built, the idea behind the use of the open sets was to add to the increasing fear element of it being just like everyday life.

To coincide with the series of videos the band has been involved with the A.Or Not? EP is officially out this Wednesday!

The A.Or Not? EP is the first Chickenhawk release on Brew and a follow up to their S/T debut album. These tracks lead the way towards a new album and plenty of touring. All tracks were recorded, mixed & mastered by Jason Sanderson (The Plight, Rolo Tomassi, Mirimar Disaster, Azriel, The Freezing Fog). Chickenhawk will be touring the UK in September, October and November.

UK based rockers Chickenhawk have just released a teaser for their latest music video ‘I Hate This, Do You Like It?’ (above).

Featuring over 200 zombie extras and filmed across 4 days in Leeds, ‘I Hate This, Do You Like It?’ was filmed by Danny North, a man more used to photographing stars for NME than filming them.

Filled with blood and guts it doesn’t look like he’s pulled any punches in his directorial debut but the full version won’t be available to judge until September 7th. We’ll have the full thing as soon as it’s released here.

Got a favourite? Why not let us know in the comments.

How about doing it in American Sign Language?

Turns out that further to my previous disappointments over this character Diplo & Switch actually don’t know what a zombie is, with the video featuring Major Lazer going up against mummies and vampires instead.

Not only that but the song sounds like it’s recently escaped from the mid-nineties. Post-modern retro-ism? I’m not sure.

Regardless here is the music video in it’s entirety for you to watch, you’ve got to give some kudos for having made Major Lazer action figures!

Major Lazer is a  character created by producers Diplo and Switch who is featured on their album, released on June 16th, called Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do.

Major Lazer is a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984. The US military rescued him and repurposed experimental lazers as prosthetic limbs. Since then Major Lazer has been a hired renegade soldier for a rogue government operating in secrecy underneath the watch of M5 and the CIA

So obviously turned up on my radar as not many people are aware of the secret zombie wars back in ’84 (otherwise it wouln’t be a secret)

They recently revealed the song Zumbie, featuring Andy Milonakis as an auto-tuned to the max zombie, doing his white boy rapping thing – check out Let Me Twitter Dat for some of his previous work.

While the reality of the situation is somewhat disappointing the song itself manages to rise a couple of chuckles and it’s not every day you see a rapping zombie.

Prior to this I was only familiar with the World of Warcraft video (2.5M views!) but managed to find one that I thought was a little more in keeping with the song, from DragonCon TV.

Jonathan has released loads of great songs like this under the creative commons license but why not support him by downloading from his official site and get individual track for $1 or whole albums for $10.

Gavin Castleton is a musician whose new album is entitled ‘Home’.

Having been around for about 15 years now he recently released his 10th solo album, focusing on a difficult two year break-up, based against a fictional zombie movie background.

His previous albums included such mind blowing lyrics as “So I sang an Usher song, but I got the words all wrong”. Good, because if you knew all the words to an Usher song I wouldn’t be writing about you.

Home is filled with melancholy riffs but for an artist whose work has included an undecided version of Nothing Compares 2 U and been involved with the sort of rapping that isn’t going to be getting Fiddy worried about losing his crown, the new works reflect a decidely more mature Gavin.

To be honest we’re not entirely sure we follow the zombie theme through the album but some of the art work is really well done and we’re all about promoting zombie awareness throughout all media types.

Why not check out his Myspace page for some musical samples or his official blog for an insight into the creative process.
