CAPUTO: THE NEW FRAGRANCE FOR MEN, FROM CALVIN KLEIN
Friday, July 17th, 2009 at 3:00pm by Axl RosenbergThe new William Rot (is that his real name?!?)-directed Keith Caputo video, “Bleed for Something Beautiful,” is, in fact, quite pleasing to the eye (the naked lady doesn’t hurt, either). It also really reminds me of a douchie Calvin Klein ad. So I’m a little torn between the fact that I do like the way the video was shot, and the fact that it isn’t metal, like, at all. And that I think stupid hipsters might really be into it.
Also, the song is not that memorable. I appreciate what Caputo is going for, I just don’t dig it that much.
Watch the Caputo clip below, then let us know your thoughts in the comments section. As though you needed our permission.
Caputo’s latest, A Fondness for Hometown Scars, is out now… in Europe.

Oh fer chrissakes, no – that’s not his real name. That’s just a DBA/stage name-type thing.
His real name is *Jason* Rot.
Keith’s best work is this:
The entire first Life of Agony album
A few cuts off of ‘Ugly’
The song “Weeds” off the third album.
Anything else is meh at best.
The naked chick could not even keep me in that long enough to finish listening/watching that. What the hell happened to Caputo?
I didnt even listen to the song cause I knew it was gonna suck.. I havent liked anything hes done on his own.. the first Life Of Agony cd is still a classic though… I met keith caputo afew years ago he was kind of a dick and hes literally 4 foot 11.. cause im short Im about 5 foot 4 and I had to look down to talk to him
As Kenny Power’s would say “Your Fuckin Out”
Correct.
Whatever, but I am presenting a motion for more music videos featuring tasteful closeups of shaved, tattooed and pierced ladybits.
I have to agree. It looks like a douchy Calvin Klein ad, and the song sounds like it belongs in a douchy Calvin Klein ad. The chick in the video is hot though, thats gotta count for something
Caputo needs to stop being a weiner. One good Life Of Agony album does not a metal musician make. And that’s right, I called him a weiner. I felt it was appropriate…
This would be a totally rad Tom Waits song. Liiked the work he did with Within Temptation, but ya, this is kinda tedious at best.
Its sad when a naked chick cant even keep my interest in something, dull boring song. id rather dip my balls in hot wax than listen to that again
This song and video are both boring…I’d rather watch some real porn
LOA is one of the worst bands I’ve ever heard and Caputo isn’t nearly as talented as he likes to think he is. Everything he’s ever done has been pointless and a waste of time. WHy is he allowed to continue being an “artist”?
