Watch: M.I.A. - 'Story To Be Told'
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater September 21st, 2010

M.I.A needs a bit of credit here - she certainly deserves it. Her new video for 'Story To Be Told' very much carries on the theme of ancient computer displays going fucking crazy. Although it doesn't quite have the artistic sophistication of that one where all the ginger kids were running away, only to be cruelly blown to pieces of rusty dust, it does something. I'm not sure I can describe what it actually is.

You can watch it in all its glory here. Yes, that website is called "http://yesthelittlepeoplewillneverwinbuttheycanfuckshitup.com/". A good domain if ever I saw one. You can also watch it below, by some miracle someone has uploaded it onto YouTube. I'd advise going to the proper website, though, if you want the full experience.
