Boston is one of the oldest cities in the entire United States. Boasting such a long history one can’t help but feel proud as a resident to be a part of something that just feels… bigger. But let’s focus on what’s really important. Take a seat Tea Party, because Boston is also home to some of the best dive bars on the East Coast. There are really too many to name, but these are my favorites: Boston’s Top Five. I wish I didn’t have to choose, but let’s be honest, no one wants to read a novel dictated by my liver, and man, mine is really starting to hurt. If there is any special mention to be had, it’s to my research team: Lindsay, Meg, Dave and Sara, this is for you guys.

Ladytron is the last band one would expect to see wandering through the haunted shacks and abandoned junkyards of California’s high desert. But in the video for their new single “Ghosts” there is a sun-drenched sinister nature to that environment that suits the British band perfectly. Shot entirely on film, the video follows the impeccably dressed quartet through a dusty landscape of weather worn pianos and broken down vintage cars; a surreal place inhabited by oversized rabbits and where cars speed down the highway with no driver behind the wheel. Its the video that Ladytrons Reuben Wu considers his favorite the band has done thus far.
