Video: Rilo Kiley: "The Moneymaker"
Perhaps you found Deerhunter's ambient passages "difficult." Try waiting through minute after minute of skeezy porn audition footage-- "I have all this, but what did it cost me?" emotes one porn star-- to get to the new video for Rilo Kiley's "The Moneymaker"...which continues the theme (with higher production values!). From the band's forthcoming Under the Blacklight, this track's sleek blues-funk licks give singer Jenny Lewis some smoky room to purr and shout, while all the scantily clad porno-scene gyrations make me wonder why TODAY had to be the day my internet went down so I had to go to an office full of white-collar drones to write my Forkcasts. "Um, yeah, just finishing up these TPS reports..."
