The Ephemerist

A nice one from pootling.

As LinkMachineGo reports, several people have made videoclips to David J’s rendition of Alan Moore’s This Vicious Cabaret (from V For Vendetta). They do this using a slideshow with David Lloyd’s Art or with footage from the V movie that came out a couple of years ago (and wasn’t that good).

I’ll probably lose all credibily I’ve carefully built up so far, but I had never heard of David J. I knew that Alan Moore did a few songs with people from Love and Rockets, but never delved into it. But after listening to his work on his website, I’m totally hooked. This is on a par with Echo and the Bunnymen and The Jesus And Mary Chain - atmospheric, melodic guitar rock. The world can never have too much of this…

David Lloyd, famed co-creator of V For Vendetta, has a blog ! Check out LforLLOYD dot com, with some nice unseen images.

It may not be that creative an idea, but I was the first one to use that title. I can only hope that it somehow stuck in David’s mind, and he remembered it when he had to come up with a monnicker for his own blog.
