Worst Headphones

No Comments || Posted in MTV


Can someone fill me in on what precisely is wrong with the electronics companies? I just want some nice earbud headphones and i dont want to spend $100. The only headphones I can find are either $100 or $20. I just bought the $20 pair pictured above and I was instantly disappointed. I wouldnt gladly spend $60 if i knew I’d like them, but I’m stuck with these. Who told these companies that we want our headphone cables to be different lengths for each ear? I would probably spend up to $60 if I had confidence in any of the companies making these things.

The new Klaxons video appears to be a continuation of the previous video for Golden Skans. Both videos feature stunning slow motion of the band busting three dimensional glass shapes. Where Golden Skans was a sort of futurerave wasteland, they seem to have gone samurai-chic with It’s Not Over. I would have appreciated some new ideas, but director Saam is still doing some of the most visually interesting work in music video today. Expect the single to include a Justice remix.
