Band of The Week:- "Misery Signals"

A picture is worth a thousand words
Music videos range from simply showing the artists playing their instruments to depicting the artist in different avatars. They can pump you up or soothe you down. Ignite your imagination or leave you stunned. They tend to help create a halo around the artist, which helps people perceive their favourite musicians in a glamorous, other worldly light.
Many videos do not feature the band at all but narrate a story through the song or make a point.
The video of Seether’s rock version of George Michael’s Careless Whispers is unique in the way that it is first of all an animated video ( so? What’s new?) and shown in the manner of a 80’s and early 90’s videogame. It has a Dave-like look which is pretty cool. In addition, the video spreads many messages.
It takes a potshot at the recession. The video also promotes reforestation and punishment of those who cut trees (preferably by Ghost Buster-like weapons!!). It touches upon terrorism, swine flu and even has an ET moment. However, the video actually has no connection to the song but it’s still great fun to watch.
Shaun (the lead vocalist) is pretty good. He surely has come a long way from South Africa to setting base at LA. In fact the band is performing right now at Sayerville, New Jersey (USA) and will be performing tomorrow atWest Springfield, Massachusetts (that’s USA again).
