Video: Austra – “Painful Like”

Austra’s “Painful Like” gets the video treatment from a cat who goes by the name of Exploding Motor Car. Classic B-movie thriller action in the one, think Mad Max on rollerblades with some puppet work thrown in for good measure.

Video: Austra -"Home"

Following an audio stream we shared back in early March Austra has revealed their clip for “Home,” the first single from their upcoming follow-up to 2011′s Feel It Break, titled Olympia (out June 18th.) It’s a single-shot clip, featuring a down and out looking Katie Stelmanis and her bandmates getting ready for a show. Directed by That Go.

Listen: Austra - “ Home”

Well this seemingly came out of nowhere. Katie Stelmanis' Toronto-based band Austra have announced the follow-up to 2011's excellent Feel It Break. The record will be called Olympia and is scheduled to drop June 18 via Domino. Check out the upbeat "Home" below, which apparently is a very good indication on what the 12 track album will sound like as a whole.
