The headline of this post was taken from a conversation I had with my 5 year old nephew about 5 minutes ago. Here I am on a Friday night, updating the website while babysitting the sister’s kid. He’s watching Nick Jr. and eating fruitsnacks and was pretending to watch Nick Jr. too, but only paying attention to about 10% of this show with these puppets that isn’t Sesame Street or Fraggle Rock or the Continue reading Hey That’s Andrew Bird! “No it’s not! It’s Dr. Stringz!”…  It isn’t so amazing to me to hear that NYU has a Riot Grrl collection since I went to UCLA and took classes like “New York City Punk 1975-1980″ (the textbook was Please Kill Me) and “The History of Electronic Dance Music” (among others), but I was glad to hear about it today cause I think I may have forgotten all about Bikini Kill for a number of years. Thanks to feministe.us for the Continue reading The Kathleen Hanna Papers…  The Stone Roses were an English alternative rock band formed in Manchester in 1984. They were one of the pioneering groups of the Madchester movement that was active during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The band’s most notable lineup consisted of vocalist Ian Brown, guitarist John Squire, bassist Gary “Mani” Mounfield, and drummer Alan “Reni” Continue reading Flashback: The Stone Roses – Standing Here…  Even though I got over this band when I was like 16, and traded my cowprint vinyl LP for Carey’s Problem and Bowie’s Hunky Dory I still feel compelled to bring you some Cattle Decapitation news. Maybe cause they were kind of ridiculously awesome, or because they’re playing Stonehenge (EPIC!), or perhaps because of the way they ended this message. Whatever the reason, the San Diego burp metal band have issued the following Continue reading Forever Basting in Felch Juice, Cattle Decapitation…  You’ve all heard both of these songs already, and we probably woulda posted them ages ago had it not been for STUPID *****host breaking our FREAKING servers every other day. Thanks a lot, hosting service, for sucking ass and making us fall behind on like, everything. Ugh. Anyway, Beach House and Yeasayer are 2 of our very favorite current artists here at the weapon and they’re both gearing up for new releases in early 2010. Continue reading Old News is Good News: New Beach House & New Yeasayer in 2010…  Until pretty recently I had no idea what “ABC BBD” actually meant. I’m not sure where the epiphany came from but it came just the same, so enter another (late) version of the Flashback Friday post, featuring The East Coast Family. Howcome nothing sounds like this anymore? Happy Continue reading Flashback: Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD…  Courtesy of Mute Records & my favorite krautrockers, Can – “Please enjoy this free Christmas download from our wonderful German friends.” Details Continue reading Can – Silent Night…  Make no mistake about it — Le Castle Vania makes some ridiculously hot tracks. His drums and synths hit so hard they could make the walls at Madison Square Garden shake. I honestly don’t think there’s anyone I’m more excited about in terms of electronic music today. With that said, his newest single “Nobody Gets Out Alive!” is a perfect example — a shining example of 00’s electro. Continue reading Le Castle Vania Goes To 11…  Hot Hot Heat is an interesting band. It appears that, over the years, they’ve become one of those bands that can’t figure out what they want to be. Disco-punk heroes? Pop-rock radio sweethearts? Sensitive balladers (yeesh)? At one point or another, you could find a track or two to convince anyone of these. Let’s not be quick to dismiss, however: despite their apparent identity crisis, they have always managed to churn out some quality Continue reading Hot Hot Heat Readies New Album, Releases Two New Jams…  There isn’t really too much for me to say about this right now. Just listen and then watch the 3rd video if nothing else. HAS ANYBODY SEEN THIS YET AND WHY DID I JUST HEAR ABOUT Continue reading Flashback Friday – The Skids… |
