The lyrics map out celestial contemplation, love’s struggles, and curious nods to Big Ben, Florida, and witches. The music video fragments time, looping Deal, Milton, and members of Ayoade’s family through recursive frames. Deal, previously of Pixies and The Breeders, co-wrote “Gigantic” and shaped ’90s alt-rock with “Cannonball.” Music video directed by : Richard Ayoade – Song featured on the album : Nobody Loves You More Cannonball (W/ The Breeders) (1993) |
8 . Beirut – Guericke’s Unicorn![]() |
![]() Date Added : Feb 23,2025
Beirut‘s “Guericke’s Unicorn” leads their upcoming album with an unexpected shift toward synth-pop, standing apart from the record’s prevailing baroque tendencies. The title references a 17th-century hoax in which a so-called unicorn fossil—pieced together from mammoth and narwhal bones—fooled scholars of the time. This fascination with historical oddities aligns with Zach Condon’s penchant for weaving obscure anecdotes into his compositions. Founded in 2006, Beirut introduced their blend of indie rock and global influences with “Gulag Orkestar,” followed by albums like “The Flying Club Cup” (2007), “March of the Zapotec & Realpeople: Holland” (2009), and “The Rip Tide” (2011).
