When you’re a band as good looking as Quasar Wut-Wut it would be almost cruel to not show moving pictures along with the silky smooth melodies. Please visit our YouTube channel to bask in a real feast for the eyes. Here we present some of our handpicked favorites, and we hope yours as well:
Set in the bleak dystopian future of 2022, QWW unleash a new single that gives hope to the masses and a convenient excuse for Matt to showcase his not-at-all-weird 8mm film-projector collection. Recorded live in the hallowed Coupon Studios, “Come Out of the Darkness” is a taste of what’s to come on the next album, assuming we all make it out of the proverbial darkness (please send thoughts, prayers and money (but mostly money))
It’s easy to think of QWW as being invulnerable never-aging superheroes, but even we were affected by the 2019 pandemic. Here we are keeping it together but separately, playing a “live” pared-down version of “Tramps of Taro Sound” off of 2005’s Taro Sound album. Fun fact: Brent built that super-sweet doubleneck 12-string that Matt is playing in this video. Just like Brent himself it plays great and looks even greater.
Here we have "Jezebel's Arm", the lead single off our latest album DIGESTING MIRROR, AVAILABLE NOW!
Do you like your social commentary mixed with a bit of satire and encased meats? Sure you do. “Jezebel’s Arm” takes a surreal look at our strange relationship with media. SPOILER ALERT!: Just when the current preponderance of bad news is about to lull you into a paralyzing state of boredom and general unease, mass consumerism swoops in to save the day! Who needs troubles when you’ve got While U Wear It™ stain spray, right? Well, am I right?!! Yeah, I’m talking to you. I see you sittin’ there watching what is essentially a commercial that some band made for their cute little song. Man, everybody’s selling something these days!…Actually, after watching this video I’m just confused. I mean seriously, what is this crap?
”Mandatory Days” from our latest album, DIGESTING MIRROR. The Patriarchy has never looked sexier! Nor strawberries so delectable. “My love is undivided when everything else is undecided. Oh no, oh no, oh no”.
QWW's first music video, for track 13 off their 1998 release Jalopy. Shot by Matt, Jordan and friends Russ Merkow, Winston Stromberg, and Craig Silverstein while attending film school in Michigan. They blew off other classes to make this and nearly failed out, so we hope you're happy. We think the video still holds up really well and it's fun to compare to recent videos like “Jezebel's Arm” so you can understand the devastating effects of aging on the human body and mind. Please enjoy!
Our live submission for NPR's delightul 2016 Tiny Desk series. A little inside look at our secretive and extremely spacious Coupon Studios where, among other things, we like to keep our tiny desk and a fully stocked taco bar. This is a slightly less-bombastic version of “Thankful Hank”, a track on Taro Sound that has become one of our live staples
