Under The Influence

The Libertines and The King Blues, are two bands of around similar genre to the song i have finally chosen to use within my music video! These album covers are also giving great insight and rough ideas, for the style i'll be creating for my CD digipak. The colours are bright and vivid in both, however i also like the element of cartoon within one, and the rock 'n' roll element of the comparison.

                                 

I have incorpoarted a music video (above) from 'The King Blues - Headbutt' I found the video and thought it was very plain and simple, however gives a great sense of fun to watch. The video walso did not seem overpowering by looking over professional, the quirkyness of the camera not being entirely still matched the upbeat and style of the band and the song. It was really nice to see, it is very much in keeping with their cheekyness, and the monkey is obviously there to match with the lyrics 'she will make a monkey out of me' so that was great to get an insight into the narrative within the song. This sort of  music video was exactly the video I was hoping to be able to see from another band in the same sort of genre as the Mystery Jets, and this music video in particular has given me great inspiration and ideas.
