This video is about 5 months old, but i'm quite obsessed with this track right now and the video is really well done (director Will Joines is also responsible for "The Night" music video). "Passage" is from the album of the same name (one of my favorites of 2012...so far), available now on Secretly Canadian . [...]
The nuanced layers that comprise Passage can take you somewhere, but too much of it opens up doors -- big, gaping ones -- that don't ever lead anywhere. Despite the duo's name, Exitmusic's first collection for Secretly Canadian -- Passage -- doesn't sound like what you'd hear over the closing credits. Instead, much of it feels like the dramatic climax that precedes it, and the moments that don't hit that peak are weighted, uncertain denouements. This is music that wants to strike you, but it doesn't hit with earworm hooks or charging chorus. Instead it is the [...]
They came with torches. At least, that's what Alleska Palladino and Devon Church did in the music video for "Passage," off Exitmusic's latest album by the same name (on Secretly Canadian). The clip, directed by William Joines, takes a slow, cinematic look at escapism and destruction, examining them frame by frame and in arresting detail. [...]
I'm a huge fan of music videos made with the same horse-riding children as seen in This American Life. Rudimental's glossy club/gospel remixes do extremely well with John Newman's vocals on the video for "Feel the Love". I do. TOY has hairy color. Liars encounter some man-boobs. Willy Moon has infectious confidence. Crybaby has a [...]

I'll be honest; Exitmusic's video for their single, "Passage", doesn't strike me as particularly interesting. However, the song itself is incredible. A somber mix of intense emotion and powerful vocals, "Passage" has me excited for Exitmusic's debut full-length of the same name out May 22nd through Secretly Canadian. Exitmusic is the duo of Devon Church and Aleksa Palladino. Watch the video for "Passage" below but mainly to hear this stunning new single. Read more »

L.A. band Magic Wands re-style Madonna's "Burning Up" (off her s/t debut) a 2012 indie beachside shoulder swayer (you know what we mean), selecting for some sleepy synth atmosphere, a deep-in-the-mix vocal, and a New Order-esque bassline. Hat tip Magic Wands. Magic Wands ( Facebook ) Rating 8.3
