The Kills’ latest single “Satellite” is a great song, all the classic scratchy and echo-y guitar you love this band for with a little reggae shimmy. There’s a great video for it now – a drunken, woozy road-trippin’ film-noir set in a fabulous old car in a beautiful, vacant place, all thick clouds and sickly neon lights, that’s seen better days. It’s all cut up like a weird dream, sometimes pleasurable and sometimes a nightmare – the lights blur and fade in and out, everything trembles, what’s happening gets shuffled in with what happened, what will happen. It begs repeat viewings. Check it out while you wait for the record, Blood Pressures, coming April 4.
