And they have a Gorillaz-like alternate, altered universe of animated personae. Their new video, "Lose This Child," continues their tradition of creating spellbinding, envelope-pushing, effects-bending videos. Taken from their album Teasing Nature, "Lose This Child" recalls some of the quieter moments of Radiohead's OK Computer. The video, directed by Yuval & Merav Nathan, is a stop-motion tour de force, crafting an entire imaginary world out of sand, with turtles and other sea creatures rising out of the ground. It really needs to be seen to be believed".

It has an ever-so-slight Eastern folk twang on the melodies and acoustics in the verses. The chorus is really just a chance for the lead songstress Lee Triffon to show off those heart-wrenching high notes".

Triffon is probably the biggest wild card of this chapel. Times charming, sometimes childlike, sometimes bitchy, sometimes sexy, sometimes naive, sometimes fragile, sometimes cocky, sometimes cynical, sarcastic, or disturbing, like an angel or even the diva – this lady has a vocal range and charisma so much that it inspired falls into gasping

  To qualify for the Lollapalooza Last Band Standing competition, groups had until May to raise as many votes as possible from fans. The 100 bands with the most votes qualified for the next round, in which judges narrowed the field to 20 bands. Eatliz, while earning enough votes to qualify for the first round, was eliminated by the judges during round two.
  
  Despite the band's failure to hit the stages of Lollapalooza, it was recently signed by Anova Records, another label aiming to advance non-mainstream Israeli music internationally, and will release its album, Violently Delicate, in August in Germany and Austria.
  
  "Tiptoeing on salty sand / my pink glasses work so wonderfully / one more moment on / and it's gone," Eatliz sings during the introduction of the hit song "Attractive," from the new album. The chorus croons "Wherever you are, are / if you find me attractive / whoever you are / don't hesitate / everything's got to move on".
