I wrote about Johnny Foreigner way back in 2007 or something. I'm pretty sure I compared their anthemic nature to early Bloc Party. I imagine they had a good lol about that. I meant well though.
Anyway, fast-forward a few years and they have a new EP (well, released in November) out on the stupendous Alcopop! label. And a talented bloke called J Matthew Nix has put together a rather brilliant video for one of the songs on the EP, 'Harriet, By Proxy'. But what's really interesting about this is that instead of making it an "exclusive" (I dislike this term) on a popular website, they've put the video up for download here and told everyone to spread the love. So I went and uploaded it to UToob and you can watch the embed below.
At least one other person has viewed it on YouTube, which I consider a wild success. It's yet another excitable Kinsella-core offering from the Midlands trio, which you should go and share whenever, wherever. Just like Simon over at Sweeping The Nation has done.
