Today's Pick

True to form, the funk pop outfit Scissor Sisters have donned their nun outfits and sailor uniforms, dress as their favorite beer/liquor mascots and eventually become animated rabbits with another high-concept crazy trippy visual for their latest track, "Baby Come Home," the second single from the New York glam-pop band's just released fourth effort, "Magic Hour," which was released just this week.
The new album is dedicated to getting you on the dance floor and keeping you on the dance floor. Forever, but also contains touching ballads. It's a combination of rhythm and romance like you've never heard before. The album finds the Grammy nominated band collaborating with some of the hottest names in the music business, including Azealia Banks, Pharrell Williams and Calvin Harris. Speaking about the album, the lead singer Jake Shears told The Guardian: "[Magic Hour] is a sweet joyful melange of beat-driven future-pop. It style-hops all over the place unabashedly."
"Spawned by the scuzzy, gay nightlife scene of New York," the band took their name from a sexual position between two women also known as tribadism. "Baby Come Home" is a sugary, lollipop of a tune! The song follows their previous single, "Only the Horses," and finds the group donning some fun wardrobe choices: a knight, Viking, nun, and sailors, witches and jailbirds while the song ear-worms into your brain. The Scissor Sisters creatively capture the lyrics in their super fun, colorful, and booze-fueled new music video for "Baby Come Home."
Following the imaginative clips for "Shady Love" and "Only The Horses," This one's more of a graphic design wonder, a fluorescent, an explosion of animation, lyrics, costumes, humor, and shifting tapestry of characters, which has the band acting out illustrations from beer bottle labels with a mix of live action footage and animation. It starts off rather lighthearted, but by the final third, the band end up on a rather unexpected trip to hell. In the colorful animated piece we see Shears and the gang recreate various beer labels which is a great excuse to play dress up. Join Scissor Sisters as they embark on an animated, character-filled adventure!
