Fresh Links: the music breakfast of champions

Six links for you:

· Animal Collective get literal in their new music vid for the single Fireworks.

· We always suspected that Avril Lavigne couldn't be trusted, we just needed the proof.

· Much as we love MIA, we have to agree the artwork for her new album Kala is neon overkill.

· What YouTube would have looked like in 1987: video of Purely Sexual Thang by the Maxwell Brothers, filmed in Stowmarket and Bury St Edmunds.

· Have you voted to deport Snoop Dogg to Australia, yet? Yeah, yeah... One man's immigration is another man's deportation.

· Sinead O'Connor is kind of annoying. To wit: "I often think throughout the centuries people have gotten stupider -- you can see it in art, actually. No one can paint anymore like they used to paint in the Middle Ages. I think the same has happened with music. No one can write songs like they did in the '60s, 'cause I guess people don't care as much or something." [Via the other 'Gum]
