Recently Trend Hunter reported on the 50th anniversary celebrations of Dr. Martens. The shoe brand enlisted ten contemporary bands and ten film directors to create a collection of music and videos that reflect the broad range of groups that have adopted and customized Dr. Martens footwear over the last 50 years.
The latest video to be released is Michael Davis of MC5 & D.O.A. covering Cold War Kids' 'Something Is Not Right With Me.' The video features an anarchistic post-apocalyptic fight on jet skis set to the heavy guitar grittiness of the track.
