Melissa Auf der Maur Premieres New Video

Remember her? She was the hot one in Hole. Man I had a crush on her. The mighty hot one is about to release a new solo album, her second, and if this track is anything to go on it will be killer.

There is some really interesting textural guitars in the background that my brain keeps trying to tune into. I wonder if the whole album will be like that. In fact, calling it an album is not really accurate. It's a crazy music/short film/comic book mash up.

Melissa Auf der Maur has premiered the first music video from her current multimedia project of the same name, "Out of Our Minds", which you can watch HERE. Directed by Tony Stone, the stylishly noir video features MAdM on a mysterious journey into the woods after her car crashes.

Out of Our Minds (OOOM), also includes a solo record that will be released on March 23rd 2010. Consisting of 12 powerful tracks produced and mixed by top-flight collaborators including Jordon Zadorozny (Sam Roberts), Chris Goss (QOTSA, UNKLE), Alan Molder (Depeche Mode, Smashing Pumpkins), and Mike Frazer (Franz Ferdinand, ACDC), the album also features a special duet with legendary Goth rocker, Glenn Danzig.

Out of Our Minds is MAdM’s long awaited second solo album, which also extends into a 28-minute, HD film starring and conceived by MAdM, as well as a limited edition comic book and matching Picture Disc Vinyl illustrated by Jack Forbes from Brooklyn, NY.

    I suppose there are worse things than being the “Hot One” from Hole, but probably there are better things : the “Arty One” from Hole, the “Canadian One” from Hole, or the “Arty, Canadian, Risk-Taking, Dream-Digging, super-creative hot one from Hole.”

    But hey- coverage is coverage. Thanks for posting this :)

    She was all of those. In fact with the harmonies she provided on Celebrity Skin, that album would have been awful. In fact, I think we could remix the album and remove Courntey Love completely it would have been great. Didn’t Billy Corgan write most of it anyway?

    But true, I guess my recollection going back to being a 15 year old boy when the album came out is a little “clouded”. Needless to say though, I can’t wait for this album/project. I wish more artists would try to cross that line between simple music as expression, and realising the music can be used as just a part of an overall creative output.
