The official video for Snow White, by Wot Gorilla?  Album released in August.

 

Sam Green: He looks like Timmy Mallet crossed with Badly Drawn Boy when he sings, what the hell is that tongue about? He does have a very nice voice though. The song has a sweet little groove and that breakdown in the middle is great, but then his tongue is trying to escape again. Another cool little breakdown towards the end, nice mathy element to it and the post hardcore roar just gave me goosebumps. 4 beards

 

Allan Struthers: I heard the drum intro and expected something really crap, but I actually quite like the guy's voice here. My brain is telling me that I should find it annoying but there's just something about it that's grabbing me. As a song it's all over the place, kind of like surfing through TV channels, except instead it being different channels it's different guitar riffs. Some of them I like, some of them I don't. Fairly decent overall though. 3.5 beards.

 

Lizzie Banoffee: AAAARGH HIPSTER ALERT!!!!!!!! What an absolutely terrible hat. Hate the vocal style. It's like he's trying to do the Eels / Decemberists thing but it's not really working. It makes the odd riffs and timings seem really out of place somehow? But the music is pretty good. I don't like how he sticks his tongue out when he's singing. It reminds me of my toothless grandad drinking soup. Haha, when he starts srceaming, WTF?! It's like they want to get every possible musical style in there!! I really don't know what to make of that. The musicianship is pretty flawless but I think it's a bit pretentious. 3.5 Beards.

 

Darren Bibby: It's a fine line between something exciting and something extremely dull. It's got that accomplished math rock sound, but there doesn't seem to be any fire in the belly. It needs a pie and a pint. I despised most of the viewing experience because it seemed contrived and passionless. 2 beards

 

Darkwulf: What is this Snow White shit? I wanna batter all these guys and steal their money, buy drink and then pump their mums. Music's SHITE. Burd wid get pumped. Cute girls really like dickheads, as this video's plot proves. Right, no watching any more, zero beards. Hopefully they all quit music or die in a minibus accident. Seriously, that was sore.
