Black Lips – ‘Modern Art’

Mark Ronson is on production duties for Black Lips‘ upcoming sixth album Arabia Mountain (Lockett Pundt of Deerhunter does two tracks). So I expect this elusive band to make a lot more sense to a lot more people soon. Case in point: the two minute pop thrill of ‘Modern Art’. As Aoife Right Click Radio pointed out to me today, it sounds ripe for an ad soundtrack. Super catchy.

The videos for ‘Modern Art’ and the Pundt-produced ‘Go Out and Get It! are below.
