VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS >>>

Did you know Motopony's debut, self-titled record on tinyOGRE comes out Tuesday? It's true. Motopony frontman Daniel Blue gave some extended thoughts on the effort in late February's Volcano Music Issue, you may recall...

Anyway, the new record will obviously feature many of the Motopony tunes Tacoma has come to love or loathe. Among them, "King of Diamonds," a song even my almost four-year-old daughter gets behind.

The band's ferocious press team (label life is good) put out a release today announcing the premiere of Motopony's new video for "King of Diamonds." You can see it below.

But before you watch, take in what the PR types have to say about it..

Emerging Seattle-based glitch-folk artist Motopony has premiered the video for the track "King of Diamonds" on NYLON Guys.  The documentary-style video was inspired by Philip Glass' visual tone poem "Koyaanisqatsi."

Again, label life is good. ...

haha what 'label' are we talking about here? the kind that makes the band members in this tune look like gay hipsters singing about their rather old and moldy sugar daddies only to now and then date girls as well. GREAT JOB!

Actually I think they are talking about the kind of label that signs talented bands that end up playing live sets on nationally syndicated radio programs and live shows at places like the Troubadore (still tickets available for tonight...ask Mommy to advance your lunch money)

Well said Steve...Mr. wtf should A.) Get with the 21st Century B.) Let go of the homophobia (real men don't suffer from this weakness) as negative emotions kill us a little each day from the inside out. C.) Judge the music and not a possibly true or false connotation. D.) All of the above (this is a trick question...lol). Rob Halford is openly gay and I still think Judas Priest was awesome...grow up wtf...
