Videos: Lucero: “Women & Work”

Posted by aubin on Thursday, August 23, 2012 at 4:30 PM (EDT)

Lucero have posted the video, for the title track from their album Women & Work. Though the band enlisted fans to create a series of videos for 1372 Overton Park - including this heartstring-tugging one for "Darken My Door" - this is the first official video from the band. It's double surprising when you consider that frontman Ben Nichols' brother is director Jeff Nichols who made 2011's Take Shelter with Michael Shannon.

As much as I love Lucero, this new album is really bad. First Social Distortion and Lucero start cranking out George Thorogood honky tonk wank, then Gaslight puts out some Seger sounding shit. If Hot Water Music's next album sounds like The Georgia Satellites, I'm gonna flip my shit.

Gaslight sounds nothing like Seger. It sounds essentially like their last two records, which are nowhere near as good as Seger.

Haha. You typed Seger...twice.

Oh man, I can't stand Bob Seger.

Seger's really good, punx are stupid. The Lucero album wasn't horrible, but I don't think I'll really ever go back to it. The Gaslight album *sounds* like their last albums, but completely shorthanded the writing, all the songs are false and shitty.

Both movies Jeff Nichols directed were awesome. I look forward to more of his work. I had to read this twice to make sure he didn't direct this thing.

Michael Shannon is awesome in Take Shelter... and everything else he does. Also, the song Ben Nichols did for that movie was good.

Looks like a preview for a new show on the History Channel. I dig it.

There was one on TV the other night called American Hoggers which reminded me of this music video but that show had straight up pig killings which was lame. At least this one had chicks in bikinis.

New album wasn't that great, but I really like this band overall.
And I had no idea that all those fan-made videos for Overton Park existed, which is kinda cool because that one really IS a pretty awesome album, That said, most of the videos weren't anything special. That video for "Smoke" is quite literally the most boring thing I have ever watched.

Dear Jeff Nichols,

We used to be friends in college. Lets be friends again so I can meet your brother.

Thanks!
