Where The Wild Things Are

Trailer for the new Spike Jonze helmed "Where the wild things are". And some dope promo skateboards..


The tune is a refined version of Wake Up from Montreal's Arcade Fire. Get it here.

Between this and the new Tron flick, my childhood is a few flicks away from having been totally rebuilt.

Saw an equal parts sad & infuriating documentary from the BBC. Watch it here.

Everybody Has Got To Make A Living.

Here is a weird gem from Optimo's Kill The DJ pt 2 mix. I don't know much about the band but this song seems appropriate for our troubled times.

The Strange Boys pt II

The blogosphere's latest darlings The Strange Boys deserve the hype. I posted their "I Hear You Wanna Beat Me Up" sometime last month.

Heard You Wanna Beat Me Up - The Strange Boys Now here is another highlight from that full length. Just lovin' this sound.

Poem Party - The Strange Boys

Somebody tell me what year it is...

From the Chess Records Muddy Waters box set.

Ken Vile's Moon on the Beach

Heard this via GvsB.Haunting and lovely guitar.

Girls

I posted the first GIRLS single Hellhole Ratrace back in January because of the way it's downer mantra unravelled itself into an uplifting sing-a-long. On Lust For Life, the wish list is both moving and hilarious. Pleading for a "pizza and a bottle of wine" with the same conviction as the need for "a loving man in my life".
This ridiculous downer likability is at the center of this band's appeal.

Lust for Life - Girls

I wish I had a suntan.
