While our own Mojo Flucke was not too jazzed about the Exies’ latest album, A Modern Way of Living with the Truth, this song and video intrigues us. Inspired by all of the celebutante’s boorish antics of late (Paris, Nicole, Britney, etc.), the band recorded a new song, “God We Look Good (Going Down in Flames,” and edited the video themselves on their tour bus. The clip has already been pulled from YouTube (it’s been replaced with an edited version), though unless they went through it frame by frame, it’s tough to say what they found to be so objectionable. Some scantily clad women, some drug references, some bad words (maybe; we couldn’t really tell). Sounds like a typical day at the office for us. Either way, the clip doesn’t say anything we didn’t already know about our vapid celebrity culture or the Unstoppable Killing Machine that is George W. Bush (spoken with a hint of sarcasm), but the clip is definitely still worth a look.
To video the video, click here. Be patient, the clip is over 30MB in size, so it’ll take some time to load.
