Health’s new, self directed video, Die Slow begins by blasting your retinas with radiating colors and ends with an infomercial-like pitch screen filled up with the following phrases: You don’t have to be 19 to like a band like this. You don’t have to listen to music 8 hours a day. You don’t have to be narcissistic or shallow.
You’re right, Health. I don’t have to be 19 to appreciate scattershot images of hot steppin’ model types and writhing bodies in some sort of blood orgy when they’re backed by grinding electro pulses and building synths. Any age is right for that. It’s also hard not to appreciate the juxtaposition of the reserved, almost ambivalent vocals against the charging musical frame. It’s a serious bit of push and pull on your senses.
Via Stereogum. Off the album, Get Color, out Sept. 8th.
Two songs go in, one comes out. Pick a side.
Columbus Short Would be an excellent match for Sam Cooke (especially if this movie was to include Sam’s Soul Stirrer years). Just as long as in the movie Sam does the singing of course lol. But as far as physical resemblance my boy Columbus Short all the way. View this clip of Cadillac Records were he played lil walter… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmxTbcnW6bY

Oops meant Aloe Blacc not Black. Sorry about the typo. If you doubt that he should play Sam check him out here on you tube singing Loving you is Killing me. The likeness is uncanny - but the voice is quite different.

I have read the Peter Guralnick book and it is thoroughly researched down to the minutest detail. Amazing.
I would go for Aloe Black because he looks so much like Sam, but for heaven’s sake why are we talking about the quality of the actor’s singing? Sam’s singing has got to be dubbed in. We want the real thing not an impersonator. There is only one Sam Cooke. The actor can act, let Sam do the songs.

John Boutte should play Sam Cooke. Except the point someone made about him dying young, this is true. Boutte may be a bit too old.

Blacks say the word 50+ times a day. Fuck the double standard, stop trying to create controversy.

what is this? the dark side of health? this video is in so many ways contradictory to “health”. your healthy so im gonna kill you?? What?? if you’re sayn its nice to have healthy skin to show off and flexible bodys (bingo!) i guess thats it. but that isnt what health is all about. this is pointless.
This album have great stuff information about health.Some of areas are representing health quite well…
