new brilliant colors 12"

i've blogged about this band before, and it looks like i'll be blogging again because the two oop 7"s have been combined on a 12" and i thought i should give people who don't own them a heads-up! i guess it's only $10 for the time being, too... and with an extra song. yikes. now i feel kinda bad about being on top of things and getting the 7"s when they came out (just kidding...)

next wedensday...

i'll play you records. or you can come to my house pretty much any time and i'll play you records!

sometimes i wonder why i even check out fluxblog

since i think the guy likes some boring contemporary music (if i have to hear about grizzly bear or st vincent again i will throw up), but then i remember that he posts stuff like that best of unrest mix and this animated gif of prince in a bathtub!

nice video of the smiths pretending to play for the fans

i like how the music is playing while they walk towards the instruments but the audience is still pumped. johnny marr's arm dance is pretty cool at 2:45.

i'm feeling a-ok

half japanese- ur doing it wrong

half japanese "charmed life" isn't as good in reality as it was in my imagination for two or so years. i am wondering if people just think it's the best because it's out of print? kind of like "on the beach," which i think is a good album but maybe if it came out on cd when cds were introduced freak folk would never have happened.
this is the part where i explain that i like "on the beach" a lot, but if people were going to obsess over neil young albums that weren't available on cd they could have chose "time fades away" or "american stars and bars" or something.
also i think "charmed life" proves that david fair is the heart and soul of half japanese. maybe that's why i like "our solar system" the most out of their albums?

stan lee meets michael jackson

i think stan lee has one of the coolest speaking voices in the world. i guess that's what happens when you grow up nerd. yesterday i heard that michael jackson tried to buy marvel comics in the mid 80's. crazy!

this dude kind of looks like kimmswick
