Take me to D&B

First off, F youtube. They deleted the video I alluded to in the last post. It was from the band Municipal Waste for the song Headbanger Face Rip off the album The Art of Partying. It was totally off the charts awesome and had some of the best (and most graphic) scenes from various movies released by Troma. But, a version of the vid is still on the site. It's not nearly as intense, but still decent in its own right. Plus, the song still slays regardless. Here's the edited version:



In other news, I need to stop hyping future posts, since it usually means that they get put on the back burner due to me not wanting to take the time to type a lot of words about stuff. The hype in question pertains to the Ayres/Catchdubs mix. I wanted to do a track by track rundown, but couldn't find the time. And, that time still hasn't been found. So, it'll stay on the back burner for now, along with the ROH PPV review and whatever else I never got around to doing.

In closing, here's a video from one of the most underrated albums of 1989, Stone Cold Rhymin'. It's Young MC with Principal's Office. RECESS!




Until Then,
Later.

Sorry To Be Tardy To The Party

Sometimes I miss stuff. We all do. Don't sleep, so to speak. The point of this is that I am now a fan of Band of Horses. I avoided the hype last year, but finally got around to listening to the debut album, Everything All the Time, and I'm really impressed. I read somewhere that it can be described as a cross between the Flaming Lips and Neil Young, and I guess that could be apt. I'm not much of a Flaming Lips fan, though, and I can only handle Neil Young in small doses, but I listened to this Band of Horses album three times since yesterday. It's that good. They opened for Modest Mouse a few weeks back and I missed the show due to the fact that I thought tickets were too pricey and I already had plans to see The Rentals. I don't regret my decision, but if the shows were on separate days, and I knew then how great Band of Horses is, I most likely would've bitten the bullet and gone to both shows. Here's their video for The Funeral:




My favorite song on the album. The song and video are pretty depressing, though, but that's life. I vaguely remember catching this on MTV2's Subterranean at some point last year. Apparently it didn't wow me then as much as it does now. I hope to do a write-up on the Ayres/Catchdubs mix I alluded to in the last post some time in the near future. I enjoyed it, and I'd like to spread the word. Also, the next post will have another great video, from a group that couldn't be any more stylistically different than Band of Horses. So, be on the lookout for that.

Until Then,
Later.

M.I.A. Gives Me A Headache

In other news, I'm slightly disappointed with the new Madlib, Beat Konducta in India. I posted the preview video on here a while back, and I was super pumped to hear it since the first Beat Konducta was so outstanding. So, I throw the new one on the iPod for a fun run the other day and I think it actually slowed me down. Maybe I need to listen to it in a more subdued environment, but I just wasn't feeling it, so to speak. I mentioned before that I had a favorite song based on the short video, and I now know that the song is entitled (Variations). It is easily the best tune on the record. at least as of today.

Anyway, today I plan on a fun run soundtrack of a DJ Ayres/Nick Catchdubs mix entitled Superfriends that I grabbed from brooklynradio.net. Maybe I'll give a description in a later post.

Until Then,
Later.
