Youth Code Live - Nothing Changes, NY



Really digging on this group right now. Go to Brooklyn Vegan here and scroll down - some fantastic pictures from Wednesday's show in NY.

Youth Code




I LOVE this. Via Brooklyn Vegan.


NEW LIARS!!! FOR FREE



Go here - you enter your email and the country you live in and they'll give you two, count 'em two new Liars tracks!!! This is the video to one of them. New Liars is always good.

Joe Jackson - Steppin' Out



A facebook post from my friend John made me dart over and listen to this song. Always loved it but it's been about a year since I've heard it. The bass line has always struck me as a proto-techno bass line. Plus this particular youtube user's video is pretty cool.

Poolside - Give it a Rest



IO Echo - Addicted



Wow. This is awesome. I have something to go between Bat for Lashes and Zola Jesus, maybe wash it back with some Au Paris. I know NOTHING about IO Echo - just heard this on Garth Trinidad's show on KCRW. I'm guessing you'll see more of her/their stuff in the next few days, as my research commences.

New Franz Ferdinand!!! Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Actions



Releases 8/26/13. Very Nice. I'm quite a big fan of the first record. The guitar sound is to die for.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Crossburner



Okay, it's either this, the title track or When I Lost My Bet that stands as my favorite track on the new album so far. But every track is just so damn good and the flow of the album -ALWAYS a super important thing to me - is the best flow maybe since Calculating Infinity.

The bass guitar on this record CRUSHES.

Mark Lanegan & Duke Garwood Released Black Pudding on Tuesday...



... where the hell was I? Thanks to mxdwn for waking my ass up to it's awesome, awesome arrival.

RIP Dick Trickle w/ WEEN's Stroker Ace





Taking a suggestion from Mr. Brown and going public with it - this one's for the late Mr. Trickle.
"Light up the wheels and go for brokeStomp that pedal with a sniftin strokeSmack that roadblock caught in a pickleI'm gonna hit that line like old Dick Trickle"

New Queens of the Stone Age Video: "If I Had a Tail"



Good lord. There must be video content for almost every track on the album by now.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Live 2010

x

Last one for tonight. Tomorrow I'll have had a day to let the record percolate in my ears and I'll post what my favorite track is.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Parasitic Twins Video



Continuing DEP week here, on my blog.

Funny or Die: She-Ra

And Another New Queens of the Stone Age Animated Video for "Kalopsia"



I'm posting these last two out of order, but I was out of order yesterday, so I'm behind.

New Queens of the Stone Age Animated Video for "Keep Your Eyes Peeled"



Cannot wait for this record!!!

Dillinger Escape Plan Interviewed by Metal Injection (ow!)



Continuing DEP week. Purchased my copy of One of Us is the Killer this afternoon. I LOVE it - possibly my favorite DEP record since 1999's Calculating Infinity. Possibly. @7:30: "It''s like We Are the World,", this record - exact reference I would have used.


Primus - Live 1987



Not great, but insanely good sound considering it was probably recorded with a hand held. I don't think I even know what this first song is.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Calculating Infinity (full)



The Masterpiece. I love all their albums, and I love Greg on vox, but this a classic.

Dillinger Escape Plan w/ Original Singer Dimitri Cover Slayer



Again, and this time it's worse, the sound just isn't there on this. But you see why I posted it.

I've been scouring the youtubes for classic DEP footage with original singer Dimitri Minakakis, but that's going back to the very early oughts and there just doesn't seem to be a lot of footage of those days that's GOOD.

Queens of the Stone Age Perform New Song "I Sat By the Ocean"



On Jools Holland. I confess, I have no idea who Jools Holland is. You can go to Pitchfork here and also view the band performing another new song, "My God is the Sun" on the same show.

Dillinger Escape Plan w/ Mike Patton 2002 - Covering Justin Timberlake's "Like I Love You"



Continuing Dillinger Escape Plan week in honor of their new record having been released today (I HAVEN'T GOT MINE YET!!!).

The audio's not great on this - from where it was recorded the guitar is too loud and a horribly muffled mid-range blah, and the camera angle leaves a lot to be desired, but still, awesome to see them doing my favorite Justin Timberlake song w/ Patton.

New TV on the Radio!!!



Props as always to Mr. Brown for sending me this one. Awesome!!! Can't wait for the new record.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Sunshine the Werewolf



In honor of their new record, One of Us is the Killer, dropping tomorrow I do proclaim this week Dillinger Escape Plan week (I guess I should have started it yesterday, but if you work for a living Monday's really the start of the week, isn't it?).

I'll be posting clips all week my friends. Starting with this gnarly live one of Sunshine the Werewolf from 2004's Miss Machine, the band's first album with Greg Puciato as lead vocalist (former singer Dimitri Minakakis left after 1999's MASTERPIECE Calculating Infinity). Is this my favorite track on Miss Machine? I don't rightly know, but I love it dearly.


Al.B.Sure - Night and Day



Never having been into this song before I can assure you, I am as surprised as you are that ever since my friend Ray played this in his car a couple of months ago I have become infatuated with it. There is no irony at work here, I legitimately have fallen for this song.

Arrested Development Trailer



Nice.

Agents of SHIELD trailer



So Coulson does indeed live. GOOD news.

New Record by The Fall



Their 30th record!!! YowzA! Titled "Re-Mit"(via Brooklyn Vegan)

My favorite track by this band will always be:



That song is just INSANE when it kicks in fully.
