Check out the new music video from one of the most prolific bands in the last ten years. Broken Social Scene brings you “Texico Bitches,” off their new release, Forgiveness Rock Record.

Directed by MAKAPOON and produced by Geoff McLean

This video was sent over to the Broken Social Scene crew. Its a mash up created by someone who wanted to remain anonymous in response to the June, 2010 G20 summit in Toronto.

The new film from Canadian filmmaker Bruce McDonald (Hard Core Logo, The Tracey Fragments) called “This movie is broken: A rock show romance.” The film is about two friends who figure out they have more interest in one another than they realize. Broken Social Scene plays a huge outdoor bash, and the characters are aiming to go, and it will be one last night to remember before they have to split apart.  Will they split, or will Bruce get the girl to answer his crush?
