PUTTING ON A CLINIC

Clinic is a Liverpudlian four piece group who don't really sound like anyone else. But more importantly, they don't look like anyone else, as they wear surgical masks at all times while performing. Seriously, I caught them in concert back in 2002 in a very hot, stuffy Maxwell's in Hoboken, and they kept those masks on the entire time.

They have a new single out called "Harvest (Within You)", and the accompanying video is interesting, a surreal homage to the pagan festival celebrating the harvest. Or just some wacky English chaps in a field wearing surgical masks. Either or.

The new album Visitations will be available in the UK and on iTunes on October 16, 2006 but not in US stores in January 29, 2007. What the hell is that about?



This video for "Tusk" (thankfully, not the Fleetwood Mac song) is proceeded by a epilepsy warning, which may be a music video first.
