I love his work!! And that video was rad, despite it's crazy similarities to Bad Romance. He had a nice tweak at the end.  Favorited!

Their videos aren't very good. Especially Out of Touch. How many times can you blatantly copy Lady Gaga in one video? lol And that guy dressed in black with the stupid hair irked me throughout the whole video. The girl was pretty, though. Shame she wasn't put to better use in the video.

i wish the video would have made more sense to the song. They could have aleast show some people playing the instrument of Out of Touch.

That was...interesting...
I too, see similarities with bad romance, and was bored while watching. I'm also not a fan of other people lip synching songs of bands. I'd rather see someone actually sing the song well, or just have more of a "picture" based video.

I totally agree with Kara.
I was incredibly bored throughout the whole thing for some reason. I think it was the lip syncing. All the times it would cut to the main girl singing by herself just felt seriously out of place and pointless. Especially the part where she was stomping down the hallway like an America's Next Top Model reject.
There was just way too much thrown in for whatever reason that made no sense. Like, why was she thrown in that stank bathroom just to be watched by that creepy old dude and his assistant if she was about to be released again? And why was she just randomly thrown down at the feet of the creepy old dude to be shooed off? That seemed to serve no purpose whatsoever.
The twist ending was kinda cool, but why did it cut to those two people just watching her emotionlessly from that monitor? That irked me.
Like I said, it seemed very much like a lot of random ideas were thrown together in hopes it would work but didn't. It sucks too cause the video had a lot of promise, and the effects were good, but it didn't work for me.
Maybe I should make my own music video to it. xP

Chessy! I thought you had posted actual news about Versant. Bummer.  They've been really quiet lately. I thought maybe there would be some more hype since their CD is supposed to be out on the 23rd. Maybe I expect too much?

JUNE.  Article from February 8th. Plans to let their fans know? Looks like a no. Facebook/myspace/twitter. Any of those are better than an obscure internet article. I'm failing to see the good news in this.

Safe being that they don't actually have a date, just a month?

lol... umm.. well more like safe cause they apparently found someone to mix the album. >_<
Plus, idk if I announced it here, but back in 2009 when they were supposedly gonna be releasing an album sometime later that year, I talked to Carah and they were signed with Universal Records. And now apparently it's a DIY thing. So... something between then and now happened and I'm sure that set back was one reason it was pushed back to March. And now it's been pushed back cause of needing someone to mix it.
I mean, guys, I know Carah has experience with Shiny Toy Guns and all, but this is still a brand new band. Plus I'm sure they're wanting to release something absolutely perfect.
Although, not updating their fans was a big no-no. Then again, that could be a habit they picked up from Shiny Toy Guns. XD

I'm guilty.
I skimmed the article looking for the bad news and totally missed the good news. Oops.
I'm glad they have someone to mix their album now.

For those of you who are on Versant's mailing list, you should have gotten their first letter today. It was nice. My heart made music.  I suggest subscribing to them. (Especially since secret fun is coming up for people subscribed!  )
