Wow! This is great. Most of it is from Street of Crocodiles, which is my favorite of theirs. Can't get enogh of those damn dusty screws.

What's interesting is that what I saw in the Teargas & Plateglass vid was a similarity in tone and aesthetic--I didn't realize that when the Tool people sampled BQ they applied the mirror effect that One Day Across The Valley used so beautifully in quad.

And it made me realize that I've had a video of Institute Benjamenta for over ten years, and have yet to watch it. huh.

Really nice blog. So many blogs are I-Me-My in their entirety, "here's who I am, here's what I'm having for breakfast", kind of a desperate need for the inner monologue to be heard... and that's not to say that some people don't have a really cool inner monologue. But.

It's great that you use this place to share the cool art you find in the world.

One of the reasons I love the digital age. In the past, sharing cool things meant that you had to lend them out, and I've lost something like 50 or 60 cds, and untold video tapes that way. Now: FTP, burn, link. Clean...

Anyway. Keep up the great links.
