Video of the Moment #2335: The Drums
Err, okay, so what happened to the Drums? I have to admit I haven’t been paying that much attention since the uber weird ‘Magic Mountain’ in 2014, which I’m still confused about. It appears Jonny Pierce’s longtime music partner Jacob Graham left The Drums some time ago, with Pierce soldiering on with a backing band. Further confusing matters is the latest music video for ‘Blood Under My Belt’, in which the blond Pierce (at least that hasn’t changed; he’s the one on the right in the header photo) is wearing what I think is motorcyclist gear in front of colourful pastel backdrops, and his effete singing is still intact (okay, that’s good). Is this hipster music? Have a listen and watch of ‘Blood Under My Belt’ below. Pierce’s first album with The Drums as a solo act, ‘Abysmal Thoughts’, is scheduled to drop on the 16th of June.
