Das Racist, the kooky multi-ethnic electro rap crew that first came to prominence with their ode to the wonders of combination fast food establishments, is back with “Who’s That? Brooown!” off of their recent Shut Up, Dude mixtape. The video itself is an 8-bit epic where our heroes have to make to the club while evading an overly aggressive [...]
Radiohead are no strangers to the idea that music is something the modern fan sees as less of a commodity and more of a basic human right guaranteed by the United States of Bit Torrent. Back when In Rainbows was released, the band decided to buck the label system (middle finger to The Man!) and [...]
I don’t know what this is, but I like it! Fuzzy, psyched out, and completely danceable. These Hungarian cats call themselves Piresian Beach and they make lo-fi, shoe-gazy, mood music with a female vocalist that drones and moans in just the right way. I doubt this is a offical video, but I like it none the less, [...]
Who are Rad Omen? Hiding behind the faces of our most beloved fast-food mascots, Rad Omen refuses to be seen as individual, but instead as the anthropomorphic representation of the party massive itself. Rad Omen is not one for they are many. Their mission is a clear one: Search, Party, & Destroy. And, they want you [...]

Ashes to ashes, dust to… vinyl? Hardcore music lovers live and die music. Now, they can literally die music… or die on music… or something like that. UK company And Vinyly is offering people the chance to press their ashes into a vinyl recording of their own voice, their favorite tunes or their last will and testament. [...]
Detroit duo Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. (Joshua Epstein and Daniel Zott) come out of left field with a sound that’s closer to Sufjan Steven’s than anything a typical NASCAR fan would probably be caught listening to. On their debut four song EP “Horse Power” they tread a fair bit of ground including noisy folk and [...]
Two trailers. One theme. The tumultuous life of rapperdom and celebrity status. Wu Tang clan ain’t nuttin to fuck wit. Joaquin Phoenix isn’t really either but on a whole other level. GZA’s Wu Tang Documentary Trailer Joaquin Phoenix’s ‘I’m Still Here’ by Casey Affleck Trailer
I’m back! Sorry to have left you for so long, but business has been flourishing! I’ve been spending a lot of time having seizures and spazzing out in the woods near my neighborhood. During these seizures, which cause me to dance like a golem on acid, I’ve been having these really intense hallucinations involving strips of meat shooting out of my face while [...]
London’s Still Corners is the kind of musical ephemera that is almost too painfully beautiful to listen to casually. From the fetching lead singer’s (think Rachel Goswell ) breathless delivery to the simple and dreamy melodies the band is nothing but pure pop sugar cut with enough melancholy and nostalgia that it doesn’t come across [...]
