Savages - I AM Here - Pitchfork TV
First night in a while I've gotten to sit down and flip through the internet for interesting tidbits to post (primarily because I'm blowing off about a half dozen other things I should be doing. This will end the night and give me some time to answer some emails and do a little bit of writing.
What a way to end though, eh?
Imperial Triumphant - Crushing the Idol
And now I find this. Imperial Triumphant's video for Crushing the Idol skirts a line that I become weary to cross, however it does so fairly tastefully, without ever actually crossing it. I'm still suffering my "violence in media" hangover so this is perfect. Kind of Bret Easton Ellis-ish too.
Ministry - Breathe (In Case You Didn't Feel...)
Awesome. If there is one concert I would pick to go back in time to see it's probably from this tour - most likely the Chicago stop.
Imperial Triumphant
I dig the first track, but I REALLY dig the second one. This is $5 on Imperial Triumphant's bandcamp. More info on Brooklyn Vegan here.
Grasshopper! The Movie
So a big, fun part of the H.P. Lovecraft filmfest is always the shorts. This year we missed a small portion of them, but all of the ones we did see were great. One though stood out above all the rest. Grasshopper! The Movie. Find this WHEREVER you can and watch it, it's that good.
One Song: Protection on Milk Magazine Now
Well-respected Chicago Magazine Milk has gone online and I've got an article on it! I've wanted to do a series of pieces I call "One Song" for some time. The essential idea is I take one song and talk about it in relation to the world around me. First up, Massive Attack's Protection, the dark, brooding title track of the band's 1994 second album of the same name. Read One Song: Protection on Milk here. Then stick around the site and do some more reading. Some marvelous writing therein.
