Datarock–Computer Camp Love
This video was something I found when about the same time I was looking at all the cool Justice videos on YouTube. Justice had performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and after they were done Kimmel thanked them and his other guests and said that the next show’s musical guest would be a band called Datarock.
I thought that was a cool name and did a YouTube search for them, and found this…
I’m a fan of dance music, and of geek rock, so I love it when the two get combined to create something like this. In addition to that the huge amount of pop culture / technology references in the video were really cool IMHO.
I looked for some more info on them and found this image…
…Which made me think of the White Stripes. I think that if this band would listen to me (which I’m sure will not ever happen) I’d tell them to get a new look that will not put make them appear as though they are a copy cat sort of band.
Which is not to say that I think their look is bad, just that another band that became very well known beat them to that look. Know what I’m saying?
But back to the music.
If you liked the song in this video I’m willing to bet that you would like the rest of the songs on their album.
