Kristina Djarling - Babylon is fallen (video)

"I have had a recurring mental image of people rushing down the pit, into destruction. One morning as I awoke, I saw like a mental movie that lasted for about an hour. I saw in details all the shots for the music video. The night before, the melody and lyrics for the song had come to me in a matter of minutes. I knew this was important, and not to be kept to myself."

Stupid me for thinking that America had the monopoly on apocalyptic religious nuts making terrible, yet bizarrely intriguing music.

Einar Stray - Caressed (video)

New from Norwegian artist Einar Stray. Can't say that I like the music much, but the visuals are nicely done.
