Canadian fuzzy slacker pop trio, The Courtneys have just dropped the video clip to their ‘Lost Boys/Mars Attacks’ 7-inch alt A-side banger, ‘Mars Attacks’. Drawing on 1996 sci fi-comedy of the same name – Mars Attacks proceeds in typically Courtneys fashion. Built around Courtney Loove’s addictively breezy guitar riffs and layered with near-choral backup vocals. Mars Attacks takes a real left turn, when Vancouver bizarro and friend, MC Young Braised steps up to the mic, adding an unexpected, but strangely wonderful, rap bridge. Is it weird? Absolutely. But does it work? Undoubtedly.
