Attention vinyl addicts! Ladytron’s amazing album ‘Witching Hour’ is now available on limited-edition red vinyl after several years out of print. I will definitely be picking this one up.
Witching Hour is Ladytron’s 3rd album, and features 13 tracks including ‘Destroy Everything You Touch’, ‘The Last One Standing’, ‘All The Way’ and ‘Sugar’.
Now that my exploding hard drive has been replaced and all is back to normal, it is business as usual for the weekly music video picks. Things are a bit mellow today, and this edition will be chilled out as well.
The Raveonettes: Let Me On Out - new vid and cool track.
Moon Duo: Horror Tour - any video featuring a werewolf is cool by me.
Stay+: Fever - only partially mellow, but liking this vid.
Slowdive: Catch The Breeze - great track from the 90s shoegazers.
Salem: Better Off Alone – mellow, strobe heavy video.
Ladytron: Mirage - the latest Ladytron vid.
We will be back next week with more music videos (unless there is a hard drive implosion again).
Ladytron release their new video for the track, “White Elephant” which appears on their forthcoming full length album, Gravity The Seducer, in stores September 12 (UK) / September 13 (US).

On March 29th, Ladytron will release a ‘best of’ album showcasing their releases since 2001′s ’604′. They have been trailblazers in electronic music circles and have released 4 studio albums and a number of remixes.
With the release of 2005′s ‘Witching Hour’, Destroy Everything You Touch brought them a new extended fanbase and introduced a slight change in musical direction.
The ‘best of’ is definitely not their swan song, and they have announced they will be releasing a new album with a more ‘mature sound’. If their past releases are any indication of the quality, any change in the Ladytron sound will be fine with me.
