[Watch] Kavinsky Kicks Ass in his New Video for "Odd Look"

Kavinsky steps into the role of a badass superhero in the new clip for the OutRun standout "Odd Look." This isn't the remix by The Weeknd, it's the original version featuring vocals from SebastiAn. His thrilling, vocodered voice perfectly matches the silence of our protagonist as he fights off a group of sleazeballs trying to assult a waitress. Watch as he dodges bullets, throws trash cans, chokes' a bitch and saves the day.

[Watch] Kings of Leon Share Video for "Supersoaker," Stream New Single "Wait For Me"

Kings of Leon have offered up a 2 for 1 deal today.

The first thing on offer is the video for "Supersoaker," the recent lead single from the band's upcoming sixth album Mechanical Bull. Gleaming with 1970's filters and imagery, the clip centers around the band performing the song while carefree teenagers indulge in their youth.

Number two: KoL have shared another song from Mechanical Bull, this time with the somber, mid-tempo "Wait For Me." It's at the opposite end of the spectrum from "Supersoaker," as guitars echo and Caleb Followill cries out with raspy desire. Listen below.

[Album Stream] Check Out All 9 Tracks from Washed Out's Sophomore LP 'Paracosm'

Ernest Greene, aka Washed Out, had a clear goal with his new sophomore album Paracosm. He wanted to create an album that was "optimistic, very much a daytime-sounding album. I think the last record [2011's Within and Without] felt more nocturnal in some ways. This one I just imagined being outside, surrounded by a beautiful, natural environment."

Assisting this bright, natural sound were over 50 various instruments, recorded and sampled by Greene and producer Ben Allen in Athens and Atlanta, GA. The result is 9 songs of varying depth and layering, each with unique charm and flourish. Greene wants to share these with you one week before Paracosm hits stores. Head over to iTunes to stream the album in its entirety, and check out the video for "Don't Give Up" below.

Paracosm Tracklist:
01. Entrance
02. It All Feels Right
03. Don’t Give Up
04. Weightless
05. All I Know
06. Great Escape
07. Paracosm
08. Falling Back
09. All Over Now

[Watch] M83 Returns with a Video for "Claudia Lewis"

Nearly two years after releasing the epic Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, M83 returns, not with new music, but with a video for the song "Claudia Lewis." Continuing his fascination with the supernatural, the clip follows the life of a blue-haired high schooler (played by actress Lily Collins). As her story progresses, it becomes more confusing and complicated, ending with tongue-filled kissing and a predictable twist. Watch the Dallas Howard-directed video below.

[Watch] The Postal Service Performs "Such Great Heights" and "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" Live for the Last Time

This weekend saw The Postal Service performing at Lollapalooza and then at The Metro in Chicago. Benjamin Gibbard announced, sadly, that these two performances would be their last. He took to Twitter following the band's final show, saying:

It's saddening, knowing it was such a short-lived reunion. Yet, if you managed to see them live at some point this year, it was incredible to see Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello and Jenny Lewis together again. Below, watch them perform "Such Great Heights" and "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" during their final show at The Metro.
