Tired of Technology? This Video is For You.

I like the word ironic. A lot. However, I tend to be a walking Alanis Morissette song with my misuse of it. I'm telling your right now that what I'm about to ask you to do is ironic in it's truest sense. The only thing wrong about it is the fact that it goes completely against the entire message of the video.

So listen to East Bay Express (who deemed this a Video of the Day) when they tell you to share this on your Facebook. Also share it on Last.fm, Twitter, Blip.fm and MySpace for that matter. And if you aren't near your computer there is always your iphone, ipad, Blackberry, Droid or Sidekick.

If you're in San Francisco, and prefer the real world to the virtual, head out to Midnight Strangers' Record Release Party at Hemlock Tavern on Saturday, April 17th. If you tune in to KALX you might even be the lucky winner of a pair of tickets. Don't want to take the risk of missing out, buy your tickets in advance!

Addicted to technology? Yeah we are too.

Can you walk out the door without your iphone or blackberry? Do you need to check your email a hundred times a day? Now we have the ipad to the fuel the addiction. Yeah, it is a bit out of control but we still do it, don't we? San Francisco quartet Midnight Strangers couldn't have made the point more clear than they did with their short film/video  for their contemporary new-wave influenced track "The Future of Humanity."

If you live in the Bay Area, celebrate the release of their new album Days of Decadence with the CD release party, Saturday, April 17th at the Hemlock Tavern in their hometown.

Neo-new wave guitar rock with hints of electronics and synths, Midnight Strangers are building a fanbase of ears akin to the Killers, but with a more streamlined pop sensibility. Lead singer Chris Swimley has built a name for himself for previous albums, even earning "Best Male Alternative Vocalist of the Year" at the 2007 L.A. Music Awards. For his third solo album, he decided to bring in a band to make it a group effort. With Anthony Petrocchi on drums and Rob Pera on guitar, Midnight Strangers' live shows are full of a visceral vibe you'll bop to. Click Here to Read More..
