Best Music Video Submits, Vol. II – Blunt Bangs, Messimer, SeaDog, Pinegrove and The Joy Formidable

Blunt Bangs band
The latest edition of best indie rock music video submissions features new indie music videos from the new super-trio Blunt Bangs; Helsinki indie band Missier; U.K. DIY artist SeaDog, plus Pinegrove and The Joy Formidable.

Blunt Bangs – ”Silence is Golden”

The new power-pop sugergroup, Blunt Bangs, recently dropped its debut single, “Silence is Golden”, a gritty track with indie-punk vibes and a chunky bassline that was produced by Drew Vandenberg (Toro Y Moi, of Montreal).

The new super-trio is the brainchild of Reggie Youngblood (Black Kids) on guitar and vocals and includes Christian “Smokey” DeRoeck (Woods, Deep State, Meneguar, Little Gold) on bass and vocals with Cash Carter (Tracy Shedd, The Cadets) on drums.

Reggie’s unquestionable indie rock contributions over the years works nicely with Blunt Bang’s pop-punk grit sound and attitude. The trio’s debut LP, Proper Smoker, is out now.

Here are two other top videos featuring the new-to-us artist Pinegrove and indie veterans The Joy Formidable.
