It’s only June, but we’re going to go out on a limb and say that The Bedroom Philosopher – AKA Justin Heazlewood – may just have made the film clip of the year for several hundred dollars with the recently released ‘Northcote (So Hungover)’. It will also be providing some stiff competition for the upper echelons of Triple J’s Hottest 100 when the votes are tallied in January.
The song and film clip is a brilliant parody of ‘indie hipster wankers’ and while it name checks a lot of particularly Melbourne venues and indie scenester traits, it’s also wickedly funny. Featuring cameos by Tim Rogers (You Am I) and Kram (Spiderbait) it is the first single off new album Songs From The 86 Tram and a national tour which begins August 12th. Dates are about to be announced on www.bedroomphilosopher.com
