No Age C'mon Stimmung (streaming)

I've seen their name around the boards but have no previous experience with No Age. However the description I just encountered on Mxdwn, something to the effect of an 'experimental, two-piece punk band' sounds a lot like the two second elevator pitch for my current band Christian Fisting, so I'm interested.

New Tricky Record - False Idols

Okay, this may get yanked, and I don't mean to put this up here so peeps can listen and not buy. I haven't bought yet, but from the way False Idols is sounding so far, I will be! Listen, if you dig, throw down some duckets!

Godflesh - Flowers Remix

I recently scored tix to see the mighty Godflesh in both Chicago and LA all in the same week!!! Special thanks to both my wonderful wife and Mr. Brown for throwing down on tix while I was slavin' away in the cryo lab.

I'm celebrating with a lot of Godflesh in the stereo.

Arab Strap - Love Detective

Arab Strap's The Red Thread is one of the best album's I own (and I own a lot of albums). Kind of a Scottish version of Massive Attack's Mezzanine, but with more acoustic guitars, if that makes any sense.

UPDATE: Tuesday, 6/18 - what the hell's with my putting an apostrophe in albums?

Frightened Rabbit - Late March, Death March (Australian Tour Diary)

Led Zeppelin - Ten Years Gone

My god, the places this song takes me...

The Yellow House - U R Ur Car Official Video

Okay, this is circa 2001 I think. The track was the 'single' from our first and only album "Refurbished"(there were two subsequent E.P.'s).You'll notice that it looks as though we are violating my 'don't show the band playing the song in the video because they're not really playing' policy, HOWEVER, that is not the case. Erik Hansen shot and cut this and he did a freakin' amazing job - we rented this roller rink, rented a collapsable stage, erected it in the middle of the rink, put an ad in the local newspaper that said something to the effect of, "Music Video Shoot - come and skate and be in our video" so that although many of the people you see are our fans/friends, some are people who just showed up for the novelty of the experience or because they would have been there anyway to skate. My point is, we shot the video but played some degree of a show as well, so when you see us playing, we're really playing. Any visual that matches what's going on in the music is simply Mr. Hansen's skill. A lot of this is pretty goofy, and I'd def do some stuff different looking back, but it is what it is and I hadn't seen this in ten years or so until just a week ago, so I'm trippin' off it for sure right now.

I'd also like to point out that the band was named after the yellow house where Van Gogh and Gauguin lived and worked for a time. We wanted something that represented the line between genius and insanity.
