Melbourne band Twelve Foot Ninja made crowdfunding history recently when they raised more than $45,000 to make their new music video, more than anyone else attempting to make a music video or short film. They’ve put the money to good use with the new clip for their song “Ain’t That a Bitch.”
Now, this video is not for the squeamish, or for workplaces. It’s downright gory, but you can see where the money went in this visual tale of retribution against an internet troll. I have no idea how much it costs to hire one of the makeup artists who worked on The Hobbit, a 7ft Alaskan brown bear, or a Penthouse Pet, but I guess they aren’t cheap!
So hold on to your stomachs. I’ll bet the fans who made this music video happen would want as many people to see it as possible!
Some albums still sound fresh decades after their release.
Channel Seven’s screening of Never Tear Us Apart has no doubt helped INXS claim their fourth number one on of the ARIA albums charts. Their greatest hits collection, The Very Best, sits on the top of the charts after three previous weeks hovering around the top ten. The band’s 1987 smash Kick is also back at number seven, and their Live at Wembley Stadium 1991 has made its ARIA chart debut, entering at number 17.
