The Dresden Dolls lead doll Amanda Palmer presents this "Karaoke Verite" music video for fellow Boston rockers Aberdeen City and their local hit, "God Is Going to Get Sick of Me."

Spotted on YouTube by Scott Stereogum, although it should be noted, Sir Stereogum, that Aberdeen City's disc already is available everywhere. The Aug. 8 date on the band's homepage refers to a re-release, as mentioned on their MySpace profile thusly: "They found an early fan in Producer/A&R Columbia Records Steve Lillywhite who approached the band about going back into the studio to work on a few tracks, leading to a deal with Sony's Red Ink label to re-release the album on August 8, 2006."
