A Good Way to Waste Time
Join me for a trip down memory lane...
Hey guys, remember when MTV (and VH1 for you Sting fans) used to play these three to five minute movies that were set to the music of a band, and then the band was in the movie?
Yes, we all miss the days of Headbangers Ball and 120 Minutes, but those days are gone and by the look of things they are not coming around again any time soon.
But, cheer up. While Viacom is busy destroying all forms of entertainment over the airwaves, the Internet comes to the rescue again with Web sites like BlankTV.com. The site’s manifesto states “We hope to give you a real alternative to the corporate propaganda that pervades our society."
The site collects difficult-to-find music videos from artists lucky enough to be labeled as “independent” or “underground."
I particularly had fun going through their collection of Bad Religion videos while doing research in the office for this blog post. Enjoy.
