LW&OB2X … Extremely NSFW!

I have a love-hate relationship with Lawrence Welks & Our Bear to Cross. On one hand, I honestly appreciate the notion that a band so seemingly unconcerned with conforming to convention (social, musical or of any other kind, really) exists. Also, I really dig their name.

On the other hand, I genuinely despised their last album, Cam Cougar, which I found so willfully obnoxious that it lost any artistic significance it may otherwise have had. On still another hand, I sincerely doubt the band cared what I thought about the record, which really only makes me appreciate them more.

What then to make of this new video for their song "Wet," from their forthcoming "palindromic concept album," Binary Execute Now, directed by Nose Bleed Island's Joey Pizza Slice? On one (more) hand, it is about as, um, "revealing" a music video as has ever breached our local shores. On still another … well, I'll just let you decide.

Everyone else, take a deep breath and click past the jump.

is it really THAT not-safe-for-work? there's only penises for about 10 seconds in the beginning.

I suppose that would depend on where you work.

TA

i would watch this on repeat at work. this is the future of pop music...unreal. thanks for posting!

AH

Really great video! Well shot. Well edited. Beautiful song. Thanks for sharing.

Cool video, but I don't know if I'd call this the future of pop music. It's interesting, but really just a rehashing of some past trends in fringe music. Give Scott Walker a try.

porrid

yeah scott walker is awesome. i wouldn't say this a rehashing of him.
more like phil collins stuffed up a musty twat, fermenting
for a few months then shat back out through a fuzz pedal.

good music.
