[Watch] Clock Opera - "The Lost Buoys" (Official Video)

I think Clock Opera's videos have been some of the most thought provoking in recent years. Heart wrenching yet relatable in every sense imaginable and today they add another to their catalog with a great looking piece for "The Lost Bouys". They've teamed up with this Ben Strebel who the band worked with on their stunning "Once And For All" video and it stars Alun Armstrong who you may recognise from The Mummy Returns/Braveheart, , Maggie O’Neill from Shameless and Catherine Steadman of The Tudors fame. Peek the story telling video above. 

Their album Ways To Forget is out now. The band will also be heading out on a headline tour in a few days so if you'd like to catch them on the road make the jump.

[Listen] Clock Opera - "Belongings" (Niki & The Dove Remix)

Niki & The Dove have given Clock Opera's track "Belongings" a big sounding remix added heavy drum beats and glitch like throbs of noise resulting in a great way to put a spring in your step. It's a long way away from the original but hey, we dig it. Check it out below and watch the great video for the original track above. It's released on July the 30th and features on their wonderful album Ways To Forget.

Check out some tour dates the band has coming up after the jump.

[News] Clock Opera Announce Debut Album, 'Ways To Forget'

After some great visuals for their even better tracks, Clock Opera have just announced that they will release their stunning debut album, Ways To Forget, on 9th April, 2012 via Moshi Moshi / Island Records.

The Four Piece have created what is sure to be a stunning debut using tonnes of weird and wonderful objects and unexpected instruments creating a wall of elegance and depth. Personally, I can't wait to get my hands on it. In support of the release the band will also embark upon their first ever headline tour making stops in Glasgow, Sheffield and Cambridge along the way before partaking in Dot to Dot Festival in numerous cities. Full dates are after the jump. Mark your calendars though, April will be a good month.
