Anyone who follows the indilean blog knows I like Circa Survive and have been stoked about their new album Blue Sky Noise that came out on 4/20. Well, today they released the first music video from that album for the song Imaginary Enemy and it’s posted just below for your viewing pleasure.

I’ve enjoyed Imaginary Enemy so much, and was so excited by the video that I decided to create a tutorial on how to play an acoustic version. Hopefully this will help anyone out there who might be interested in learning and playing it themselves. You can follow along with the tabs and video below if you’re musically inclined and keep an eye out for other Circa song tutorials down the road.

Here’s the demo music video for Veneration by Eliza The Arrow. Check out another recent release from them called Toast the Tiger and if you like the sound as much as I do, then definitely check out their earlier project Forget Cassettes.

Check out The Kickdrums and their latest music video for the song Just A Game directed by Rik Cordero.

Enter a world where sugar is outlawed and dealers, cops and businessmen are all vying for control. Seems like irony and social questioning is a big theme in all of their videos, watch Things Work Out if you missed the earlier post.

Circa Survive performs the song Living Together live at the Metro in Chicago, Illinois in 2007. The energy and passion is top notch, I love when the confetti comes down. Keep your eye out for a fresh album from these guys sometime this year and get ready for an album version of their newest song Frozen Creek.
