Beware Maxwell Edison or the last sound you'll hear is doink. . . or the sound of your skull fracturing, I dunno...



Now, I don't make animated videos. I don't have the patience or the steady hand necessary to do the artistry and I have more important things to do with my time like working and staring into blank space. However, I do watch them and give props where they're due. That being said I felt like listening to one of my favorite Beatles tunes. A happy, upbeat sounding diddy about a serial killer who bludgeons people to death, it also as a sick bass line. Said song is Maxwell's Sliver Hammer by The Beatles. While surfing about I found this video on youtube and felt the urge to share it. Enjoy.

P.S. This was always one of the odder Beatles songs, even if you disregard the subject matter. It was a McCartney tune and he claimed it's about unwanted surprises rather than a serial killer. Harrison and Lennon always hated it and Ringo, well... he was just being Ringo I guess.
