TV on the Radio - TLZ

Loved this song the first time I heard it, day the album was released as I opened my old store early, had another manager sell it to me and then sat in the office counting out drawers and giving it a once over. Loved it even more when it was used in the closing sequence/credits of Breaking Bad Season 2, episode 10.

7 days going on 6.

Countdown bitch.

Live (re-cast) Lollapalooza streaming right now

Obviously not really live streaming, but still. Not sure how long this will be re-playing or who will be playing when you hit play, but it could be interesting at the very least.

The Mormons Bandcamp

Just turned on to this band via a new friend. Fucking awesome! Obvious Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid fans. I flew over to their bandcamp (where you can buy their new Forge Ahead E.P.) and immediately fell in love with The Mormons. If you're in LA their playing the Five Star Bar in DTLA on Friday, August 16th with The Sundowners, Infer Stellar and Arbuckle.

The Conspiracy Trailer

The first I heard of this movie was just a few moments ago on Bloody Disgusting. Go here and you will find considerably more information. But not only does this look great in an almost Eyes Wide Shut-meets-Blair Witch Project fashion, but it directly spins off of a conversation I JUST HAD LIKE AN HOUR AGO.

Weird. Just saying.

Herb Alpert - Rise

... and speaking of Mr. Alpert, this is a classic. When I hear this I can practically taste the 70's. What do they taste like? Numbness cut with baby laxative.

The Southbay's Finest Bookstore: The Book Frog

The Book Frog. The nicest staff. The most knowledgeable staff (a feat unto itself). A completely independent, "we're doing it on our own and F$^K Corporate culture" bookstore. And... a Literary Titan!!!

(and props for the Herb Alpert at the end!!!)

Am I Evil?

Remember when they were a good band? I know, I barely can either...
