As if the US foreign policy's reputation wasn't tarnished enough, things like these still pop up to show the world how a big chunk of the American populous believe they are on some holy quest of sorts with those meaningless wars Bush has started but never finished. Now these troops are going around Afghanistan handing out bibles translated in Pushtu and Dari to citizens and label them as "gifts." They say the are on a "hunt for Jesus." What a great choice of words. Now that Obama's in office, a man that understands and respects everyone's belief system, [...]
Psalm 30 1 I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, and have not let my enemies rejoice over me. 2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me. 3 O LORD, You have brought up my soul from Sheol; You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit. [...]

The Holy Sunday Remix is Here thanks to Luca

One reason that I always give people for staying in Boston (as opposed to moving back home to New York) after college is the deranged number of hip-hop shows and DJ nights around the Bean and Cambridge. Sure, technically only Los Angeles' rap scene can truly compare with New York's; those are the only two guaranteed tour and promo destinations for every major label artist and worthwhile underground cat. But Boston seems to filter out the trash; it's a music town in the fullest sense, with an indie rock ethos that bleeds into the rap community. For [...]

SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow . Brought to you this week by Say... Anything . The best all chick show on the network! So Mickey is looking to move. In this market, should he take the plunge and buy? Or keep on renting? I mean renting at least you wouldn't have to climb on the roof, crawl around the attic, replace the wet carpet, pay to have the a/c recharged, mow the lawn, clean the pool, shock the pool, chlorinate the pool...shit. [...]

I've some important visitors to look after this weekend, and dont expect I'll have time for a lengthy Sunday posting rounding up the week's activities. In a nutshell - there were two free gigs in Glasgow, both of which turned out to be pretty special. The first of these was last Monday with the launch of Midnight Organ Fight, the magnificent new LP from Frightened Rabbit. The band played almost

With this latest episode of John From Cincinnati one has to imagine that JFC could very well be short for Jesus F*cking Christ - both the prophet and the exclamation. Towards the end of the episode, creator David Milch calls David Lynch on the surreal, and raises him a sermon on the mount, with John (as astral projection) delivering what very well could be the Rosetta Stone of the whole series. Without spoiling it too much, it sheds more light on the interconnectedness of the ensemble, and features 'my [...]
Back on 24 October 2006, I said this:- There are many who say the sax solo in 'Baker Steet' by Gerry Rafferty is the best ever. But it's not the opinion of the fat balding bloke who runs this blog. I offer you from 1986 (can it already be 20 years??) my fave bit of saxophone on any record:- Mahalia (12") - The Bible Kevin Flanagan is the man credited with addding the finishing touches to this
What a brilliant theme, and what an enormously wide range of songs it's throwing out. You all rule. This week I've got two posts for you - this one's a bunch of songs that reference the names of other singers or bands. The second one's broader and often stranger name-dropping of actors and writers and dancers and, um, Einstein. But before that, this. Do It With Madonna - The Androids Christina Aguilera, Pink, Madonna, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue . I'd imagine this is either [...]

old school song : my soul knows it... Psalm 139:13 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. [...]

Psalm 139 7 Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? 8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! 9 If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, 10 even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me. 11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,†12 [...]
