Patent Pending Release Full Mario & The Brick Breakers Documentary

Patent Pending released the entire Mario & The Brick Breakers documentary today and it was totally worth the wait.  The full 30 minute video follows the rise and fall of Mario & The Brick Breakers – kind of like Spinal Tap except with more spray tan.   The Long Island native band fully committed themselves to this project and we’ve got to commend them for walking around New York in the winter with nothing more than short sleeves on.  We give this documentary an 11 out of 10!  Watch it below and share the link with everyone you know.

The Friday Five: Summer Tour Jams

We’ve been to a lot of shows in the past week, and after a good concert a song will stick with you for days.  Here are the songs we can’t get out of our heads after seeing them live.  All of these artists are on tour now, so be sure to check out when they’re coming to your town!

1. Rixton – “Wait On Me
We love the Ace of Base vibes of this track. (did we just age ourselves?)   Rixton put on a very solid show at Irving Plaza, impressing us with their musicianship, stage presence, and fan boys.  You can catch them on the Broken Heart Tour across the US this summer.

2. Jesse McCartney – “Punch Drunk Recreation
If you saw JMAC in the Lifetime movie “Escaping Amish,” then you’ll recognize this track as the song his DJ character is playing the moment A.J. Michalka falls in love with him.  And who wouldn’t with this beat?   Check out the dates for the In Technicolor Tour here.

3. THE HEYDAZE – “Adderall
There’s nothing we love more than a bad (good) pun.  Especially in this cleverly crafted pop song by NYC’s THE HEYDAZE.  See them on The In Technicolor Tour with JMAC through August 23rd!

4. Patent Pending – “Hey Mario
Patent Pending’s American Meltdown Tour just wrapped up, & they’ll be hitting the UK & Germany later this Fall.  The band are unleashing the Mario & The Brick Breakers documentary soon which we’re sure will have us in stitches like their “Twilight” remake did in 2010 (and still does today).  Make sure you have your copy of the Mario & The Brick Breakers “Greatest Hits EP” on iTunes US and iTunes UK now!

5. MKTO – “Forever Until Tomorrow
We still can’t get over how great Tony Oller sounded, even when battling laryngitis.  Surely it helped that MKTO has songs that are fun to sing along to, like this one.  The American Dream Tour wraps up this weekend and they’ll be joining Demi Lovato on tour this Fall!

Bonus:  Tiffany Houghton – “Band Boy”
Because this is our theme song, and she totally rocked on the American Dream Tour.

Patent Pending Release “Mario & The Brick Breakers”

When it came time for Long Island pop punk band Patent Pending to make a video for their hit single “Hey Mario” they decided to take the Rainbow Road less traveled.  The band figured – why not form a fake band and make a documentary showcasing the rise and fall of said fake band, Spinal Tap style.  Thus “Mario & The Brick Breakers” came to be.  Not being a band to do anything half way, they even created a “Mario & The Brick Breakers: Greatest Hits EP” to go along with the 30 minute documentary that will be broken up into 5 separate videos.    Watch the “Mario & The Brick Breakers” documentary trailer below!

One reason we love Patent Pending is how into everything they get.  Each band member showed some serious commitment in really becoming their Smash Bros. character!

You can get a copy of Mario & The Brick Breakers Greatest Hits EP using the links below.  Help get the album to the top of the charts!
