Rockafire Explosion - Pop Lock and Drop It
CATEGORY: Found on the Web - Other Videos
After circling around YouTube for a while, these gloriously curious music videos featuring the now defunct Showtime Pizza band Rockafire Explosion have been recently erased off the face of the net. Who knows, perhaps the world wasn’t quite ready to see these animatronic musicians perform such modern day hits as Usher’s Love in This Club and Huey’s Pop Lock and Drop It. Fortunately for us, the videos are creeping back again- and while I’m using that word, let me not downplay how creepy these clips are. If I were to suddenly awaken in the room while this was going on, I would no doubt promptly a) shit myself and b) begin to cry uncontrollably. I’m assuming that is how most children’s birthday parties at Showtime Pizza went once the curtains were pulled aside and Mr. Keyboard Chimp and the gang started playing their music.
Here’s to more videos being produced and the others being re-upped.
Street art animation of the day

We’ve seen stop-motion animations that combine 2d art with real world backdrops but this short film from Argentinian street artist Blu takes things to another level. The animation starts with a single brick falling out of a wall and goes everywhere from there, spilling on to the sidewalk and hopping all over the city. Just hit play and see what we’re talking about.
The name of the film is ‘MUTO’ however other applicable titles include “Holy Cow” and “Coolest Video You’ll See This Week”.
