Video Coverup: Day 14 

No One Remains Virgin - 獅子胯下 (Under the Lion Crotch) (2011)

I’m out of town on tour with Dr. Eggs for the first half of July this year so as a result there will be no HKXO this month.  Nor will I be updating this here Tumblr with any news while I’m away.  Instead, I’ve queued a few of my favourite, more recent, independently produced Hong Kong music videos for y’all to enjoy.

Shove them in your ears and eyes; then say, “Thank you”.

You’re welcome.

Congrats to HKXO favourites ’No One Remains Virgin’ who reached their Indie Go Go goal of $USD500! To celebrate they will be releasing their 12”, packed full of their twisted meandering dreampop, pretty damn soon with this awesome event up at Hidden Agenda!

Full details here!

In true NORV style, they released this horrific trailer to promote.  

WARNING: Do not watch if you are eating.  I did and…bleeergh.

The fantastic Hong Kong dreamy indie space cadets, No One Remains Virgin, have launched a campaign to fund their new 12” vinyl release.  You can do your part for the HK scene and get some sweet swag in the process!

Here’s a rundown of what you can expect (prices in USD)
$5 = Download code
$8 = Downlaod code and NORV Tote Bag
$15 = (Awesome) T-shirt + download code
$20 = Vinyl + download code
$40 = Vinyl + Tote Bag + T-shirt + Download Code

I don’t know about you, but USD40 for a 12”, T-shirt, Tote Bag and Download code for ye olde iPode sound like a pretty sweet deal to me.

Look out or No One Remains Virgin at an upcoming HKXO.  Details to be released soon!
