i'll wait up for that noise

Music videos are often a kind of a mixed bag for me - while most of the time a song becomes a hit solely on it's own merit, there are occasions where a mediocre song gets a touch-up with a good music video. Then there's the occasional good song that gets tagged with a horrible one.

When I watched the music video for Land of Talk's "It's Okay", it was a rare moment in which the song and the video manages to blend together seamlessly as one complete experience for me.




I got to discover this Canadian indie-rock band via the weekly free iTunes downloads (the cycle is usually five weeks of bad songs, one week of good song) and now it's fast becoming one of my favorites.

Plus I've always got a thing for guitar slinging chicks, adding Elizabeth Powell to my list of Nancy Wilson, PJ Harvey, Jewel and 張懸.
