Brilliant music video to go with this classic Murlocs track
Psychedelic shenanigans ensue when The Phantom Band – who let’s face it, are not known for their retiring attitude to performance – don the face paint, tights and some fairly outlandish costumes in a visual accompaniment for their latest single ‘Everybody Knows It’s True’.

All humans… share one spirit. All humans share one consciousness. But yet they wanna be separated “like my life, “my ideas”. They don’t realize that all humans share a huge pool of consciousness, of thought. All human thought vibrates at a certain frequency. Were all in communication. You know, when you exhale I breathe air, you breathe..were all together really. This is the way nature designed it. So that we will be sharing the earth, together. Theres a time, when you’re understanding mother earth, how nature is functioning. Nature and the earth, understand this relationship. Like, the earth itself is a huge magnet. So its creating energy, a magnetic force. The earth is giving it to us in a perfect and natural way. Everything in the material world comes from the spirit. The reason nature is alive is because theres a spirit thats being manifested constantly. So we said that everything comes from the spirit, from the energetic life source. And humans they just wanna take.They go, they gather, they take. They’re taking, just taking, taking, taking. Or they can say you have to give first…To the spirit. Everything from there you will receive…Take a couple breaths of air. This is the same air that my family is breathing. This is the same air that they’re breathing in every part of the planet. Lets take care of this. We’re all eating the food that mother earth gives us everywhere, everybody’s food comes from the same earth. So lets create that global consciousness This planetary way of living.

This edit of Yves Simon ‘Au Pays Des Merveilles De Juliet’ first appeared as a free download for a super limited time via the Psychemagik soundcloud page.
Now, after a long wait and many licensing delays the edit sees an official release on limited edition vinyl (500) via Leng Records. Played by many over the last year the edit takes all the elements of Yves Simon’s original, stretching it out from two minutes to over seven making it an instant classic. Cool vid to go with it.
The Very Best features Vampire Weekend’s Chris Baio, Vaccines guitarist Freddie Cowan, and EDM newcomer Jutty Ranx. On ‘Makes a King’ they move away from the Afro dance pop of their last effort for something that feels much closer to the earth.
