More visual mastery from Ed Scissor and Lamplighter, as they release the next video from their upcoming second album, Tell Them It’s Winter. Hyperballad is sees Scissor behind the mic and the camera again, as he directed the video too. Pre-orders for the album are available here.

Got a new video from the High Focus camp here for your viewing pleasure and it’s a mad one, as you can probably tell from the creepy still of Baxter above. “Wylin Out” is the second single to be taken from Fliptrix’s soon to be released “Third Eye of the Storm” album and as the title says, it’s about getting crazy (in a good way).
