#2 Guía para sobrevivir un ataque Zombie

Jun 7, 2011, 1:10pm noiselab

En vista que las catastrófes del fin del mundo están a la vuelta de la esquina, he decidido hacer una serie de guías para que nadie nos agarre desprevenidos. Hoy ya he sobrevivido a 3 fines del mundo, por suerte ninguno ha sido por un ataque de Robots o Zombies, por eso encuentro sumamente útil y completamente necesario y prudente, comenzar esta serie de guías. ¿Qué tal que mañana despiertas y al asomarte por la ventana te topas con que tu vecino tiene la mitad del cerebro de tu perro escurriendo de su boca [...]

New Band Smell : The Bats Pajamas : Downtown Nitty Gritty

May 31, 2011, 11:32am My Old Kentucky Blog

Toronto's The Bat Pajamas are on my NXNE "to see" list. Their eponymous debut full-length album was produced by Steve Albini at the nearing-legendary Electrical Audio studio in Chicago with Steve Albini, and at first blush sounds like a nice forced mating of Pere Ubu and Art Brut. I was seriously tempted to share the irresistibly cheeky Go Bowie Go , but I figured some might bristle at the unceremonious nicking of Queen Bitch , so you get Downtown Nitty Gritty instead. The band will soon head [...]

Block Of Wood

Block of wood - The Bats Well maybe not. This wonderful song has a video! It's a video with now added poignancy (and archival significance) as it shows a now largely ruined part of the Bats' city of Christchurch. This is the building they are hanging out the windows of towards the end. The Old ANZ Bank Chambers, late February 2011.

Part of an ongoing series intended to edify one-time underground darlings about how to age gracefully in rap. Fuck your insincere Lil Bow Wow collaborations or euro-trash Ed Hardy dance-rap (we all see you Kweli), Aesop Rock and Blockhead producer continue to sustain enduring relevance a decade after Float fractured the minds of a nation of bong-toting freshman. Late last week, the two of them released separate tracks on Aesop's odditorium cum website, 900 Bats . The first is Block's "Stop Cryin' Yo," which wraps a synth that sounds like a cat crying, around dusty [...]
