The new Superfamily video for their next single "I could be a real winner" is now on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22wn1MqkST0
I have to say that I prefer the videos from the first album ("Taxi dancing" and "It's a lie"), but the music is way better on "Warszawa".

Naturally, I am readily inclined to agree as I've already stated my appreciation of them many, many times. Great band, great album.

MP3: Superfamily - The radio has expressed concerns about what you did last night

Like Denmark's The Alpine, Norwegian act Superfamily is the kind of band that could be huge if promoted correctly. Great modern pop/rock played with a strong sense of humor and a healthy dose of 80s-ness. It's not in a retro/nostalgia trip way either, it's more about maintaining an unselfconscious attitude and an optimistic worldview. Superfamily also one-ups The Alpine by having an amazing visual presence. "The radio has expressed concerns about what you did last night" (posted today) was the first single from the band's new album "Warszawa" and it's a fantastic lead track. I always love songs with that sort of epic, yearning quality. That neediness is very inviting and appealing. Current single "I could be a real winner" has a bit more of a Hall & Oates vibe and it's pretty good too, but it's definitely the lesser of the two. "It's on the radio, channels made of tears." Who hasn't been affected by the perfect song coming on at just the right time? Great stuff.
