I don't listen to much rock n roll these days (still love the classics, just not much of an indie rock fan) with one exception: Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Karen, Nick and Brian bring so much energy and enthusiasm to each and every show no matter how long they've been on tour, no matter how sick they may be that day, no matter what else is going on in the world, they deliver 110% every time. Combined wi...
For the first time in what seems like ages, new episodes of Dethklok are available! The latest one is called "Renovation Klok" and it's streaming on Adult Swim's video site all this week. Here's the description:METALOCALYPSE: Renovation KlokAfter the attack on Mordhaus, Dethklok is left without a manager and plagued by greedy record execs and forced to face the brutality of the slumping econo...
I can't figure out if this is aimed at die-hard music collectors/vinyl junkies who revel in having records no one else knew existed... Or if the PR dept is simply trying to keep demand higher than supply for perception's sake..? Either way, it's the kind of thing you kick yourself for 5 years later when they're impossible to find (not to mention the street cred it'll be worth for djs who play ...
Hip hop jewelry isn't the only accessory getting bigger & more ridiculous over the years, rappers' rides have too. Countless songs have been dedicated to the ultimate bling - from spinning rims & gold chain steering wheels to hopping hydraulics and bumpin trunks. And, like the music, things get dropped, chopped, screwed & remixed until the crowd goes wild! Rides get pimped, tires get smoked, ...

Here's a handful of new posts with top tunes to keep you up all night:Ministry - Everyday Is HalloweenTwitter Updates For Halloween Mixtapes - including Weezy's No Ceilings and ting and ting....Cover songs mixtape - Halloween 2009 - something about David Yow of Jesus Lizard with Shell...
Nothin toxic to see here, I'm reachin into Wednesday with this late night snack... I tried to figure out an easy/convenient way to share MOG posts I'm diggin with my fellow moggers. An inter-mog inter-linking of some sort that serves to "bump" posts I'm happy to have found (before they're mashed and blended into the vast well of knowledge we call the mogOsphere.)Until I think of something more...
This might be my new fave glitch/hop artist:DIZZ1 - Promo vid for his upcoming EP 3rd Time Lucky: I'm diggin this uber-synthy weirdness. For more info about DIZZ1 and/or the EP, jump over to Jus' Like Music's post.
Thought I'd share this excerpt from Buju's show on October 10th, 2009 at the Shattuck DownLow in Berkeley. Nikki Burt joins Buju for a short duet at the beginning while the legendary Til Shiloh Band keeps di riddim flowin: And the crowd goes WIIIIIILD!!!!!
Kid Koala is super entertaining and a delight to be around both on stage and off. He's also talented - from song sourcing to turntable technique, the boy's got mad skills. So, as soon as I saw an online flyer for The Slew featuring Kid Koala & friends: Dynomite D (NYC) and Wolfmother's rhythm section (Myles Heskett on drums + Chris Ross on synths & bass from Australia), I bought tix right awa...
LOoOoOooL!!! And here I thought Kelis actually wrote this tune: This pic may not be midieval-old but it's not exactly new either. Looks to be at least a year or maybe 2 years old, but I just discovered it today. Made me laugh so I had to share...
