Chinese Burns Unit Share Animated Music Video for "Buffalo Chocolate" from Borrowed Gear Ahead of Australian Tour Dates with The Meanies


Sydney, Australia-based Pop-punk (or xKVLT POP PVNKx) band Chinese Burns Unit returned late last year with their new album. Borrowed Gear was unleasehd just in time for one of the last Bandcamp Fridays of 2021. Glenn "Glenno" Smith is an artist, guitarist, bassist, vocalist, and the primary driving force behind Chinese Burns Unit (C.B.U.) They're about to play a few shows in support of The Meanies—March 31st at The Lansdowne, in New South Wales, Australia and the following day (April Fools' Day,) at Manly Leagues, also, in Sydney. In support of The Meanies' "Better Late Than Never" Desperate Measures Tour, Chinese Burns Unit have released a music video for "Buffalo Chocolate" dubbed "the first single" (if that was the game they played) from their newest album, Borrowed Gear.


"Whilst in the North of Vietnam, Gina and myself were kindly taken to a village near [Sa Pa] by a wonderful woman called Big Pan. She told us the story of her life, marriage, how some of the villagers were full of buffalo chocolate, ate some of the nicest home-cooked food I've ever tasted, walked lots, and, basically, had the most incredible time—as we talked, this song wrote itself," Glenno Smith sahred within a recent Facebook post. "Within an hour of getting home, I flipped open the lyrics I'd scrawled into my pocket book and played guitar. I had missed my guitar and it gave me this song in about 20 minutes—can't wait to go Overseas again. These are my little drawings mainly based on photos of our trips to Vietnam and the animation is by the handsome Ross Tesoriero, Prince of Tempe," Smith charismatically continued.


"Buffalo Chocolate"'s companion video features artwork created by Glenno himself, which was, then, animated together by Ross Tesoriero, otherwise known as Ross Radiation and/or Prince of Tempe. It's without a doubt, an awesome piece of collective artwork chronicling Glenno & Gina's trip across Vietnam that can now be viewed compliments of the Radiation Video YouTube channel. Chinese Burns Unit's Borrowed Gear is now available on streaming services. They'll be hitting the road across Australia with The Meanies as part of their aptly-named "Better Late Than Never" Desperate Measures Tour later this month with additional dates listed on Facbook Events.

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of...

Jet Planes, Islands, Tigers On a Gold Leash: Lorde - "Royals" (The Weeknd Remixo)

I think it's pretty safe to say that The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) comfortably teeters the fine line between glitched-out smooth New Age R&B and hard-hitting Hip-Hop ; while the same could arguably be said for 16-year-old New Zealand new-comer, Lorde . Her break-out single "Royals" 1/2 jokingly shouts out semi-common bravado-worthy shit like: diamonds, "gold teeth, Grey Goose ... Cadillacs, Cristal, Maybach ... jet planes, islands, [and] tigers on a gold leash." But now, the Lorde/Weeknd connection has been further solidified, as Tesfaye recently managed to conjure up and release his own "Royals" remix. My beautiful girlfriend said earlier, and I paraphrase, that it "makes her wanna dance lol and she could [likely] hear this remix in a future movie!" Following the wide-spread release of her first 2 EP's (Love Club & Tennis Court) , Universal Republic plans to unleash Lorde 's proper debut album, Pure Heroine between ...

Pop Artist & Surfer Chronicle Intriguing Ex-Pornstar In "SASHA GREY."

Seemingly made to co-exist as thought-provoking companion pieces... "LINDSAY LOHAN" directors Richard Phillips & Taylor Steele are back with their most recent Art Presentation, "SASHA GREY." The 90-second short film was shot in early May @ John Lautner Chemosphere House in Los Angeles, CA. Both striking flicks will be shown on a giant floating video screen [ "Commercial Break" ] @ Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Venice, Italy (June 1-5). "Adult acting chops" aside, Sasha (23) seems very intelligent, captivating, free-spirited, business savvy, well-mannered, charming... and dare I say, "average." And I really think that's exactly what Phillips/Steele were trying to convey throughout the course of the piece; Grey's beauty, public draw, sheer likeability, and honesty will surely take her very far in future endeavors... Solidifying her [updated] image as a true "Pop Culture Figure." * Featured soundtra...
