Dazed and confused
Getting ready to go out on the town with New Order from 1983... the video for "Confusion" was filmed in part at the Fun House on West 26th Street.
(Thought of this in part because I saw that tix for New Order and the Pet Shop Boys went on sale today for the Garden in September 2022 — rescheduled from this past September.)

It might get 'Lout'
The Horrors recently released a new EP — the band's first new music in four years.
And as you'll hear in this audio clip for "Lout," they've taken a turn into the industrial metal aisle.

Sweetness and light
The video for the new tropical-punk single by Pinc Louds is now available ... in the clip for "Tamarindo," Claudi returns to her Puerto Rican homeland where she chases chickens, serenades horses, meets a miniature version of herself and learns the secret to never growing up: tamarind syrup. The song bursts with the unbridled joy that you'd expect from anything related to Pinc Louds.
The single, from the band's forthcoming release, officially drops on April 9. And you can see Claudi perform tomorrow afternoon at the East Village Flea... and the full band will be in Tompkins Square Park on April 10 at 2 p.m.
