The Queerest Thing I Found on the Internet This Week

queer
adjective
differing in some odd way from what is usual or normal

I consider it a compliment.

The Bronx. Formed in 2002, this Los Angeles-based punk rock quintet has released four albums and toured around the world. Lead vocalist Matt Caughthan is a sexy little beast with a versatile voice and cocky stage presence. There's a tendency for bands like this to make dark and humorless videos, but The Bronx went a different direction for "Youth Wasted," a kick ass cut from from their fourth album.

Here's what happens when punk rockers meet a trio of models from Playgirl, that purveyor of bro bods. It's a party, dude! And something fabulous enough to qualify as the queerest thing I found on the Internet this week. (The song is a damn good swaggering anthem, too.) Enjoy...

"Youth Wasted"
With Steve (a.k.a "The Hammer"), Jim (a.k.a. "Double Gunz") and Mike (a.k.a. "The Meat Wagon").



The men of The Bronx...

And believe it or not, they also perform as Mariachi El Bronx, their Mexican folk alter egos. Check out their video for "Holy."


The band's website is here.
