Lou Barlow - Goodnight Unknown on youtube.com
If you're at all interested in Lou Barlow as a musician (Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh, Folk Implosion) then definitely take half an hour to watch this short film, a companion to his new album of the same name. If you're interested in the process of making music, then same goes. Bringing in Melvins drummer, Dale Crover and frequent sidekick, Imaad Wasif - as well as a selection of his daughter's deconstructed toys - watching Lou find just the right sounds is more compelling than one might anticipate. If nothing else, the apparently giant grasshopper hanging off of a light fixture is imagery that you likely won't be able to get out of your head any time soon - scary!
