Videos

The Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office collaborated on a song with muggle band ALL CAPS in a music video.

Nagini‘s sideproject band, “The Christmas Crackin’ Daddies” experiments with their song, FLITWICK’S KICKIN’ and things seem to go sour.

“The Dancing Death Eaters” (which consists of seventeen people) performed a Tango to “Death Eater Tango” by Butterbeer Experience, and a salsa (with other Latin dances thrown in) to “Like a Death Eater” by Swish and Flick. There are also some wrockers among the Dancing Death Eaters, including Ariel from Madame Pince and the Librarians and Stacy from Swish and Flick.

    The Dancing Death Eaters get full marks for awesome! That’s such a fun idea.

    Um, just to clarify, the Deathsticks’ song is their holiday ‘cover’ of Jingle Bells. Except that they’ve changed it rather a lot 😛 AND it’s up for free download for the forseeable future! Oh, I think the dancing Death Eaters are pretty incredible as well ^.^ I love the Death Eater Tango.

    None of the Dancing Death Eaters is a professional dancer. That they were able to pull this off after a few rehearsals is amazing! And yes, they’re resuming dance lessons for their next big event–whenever it is ;=)
