Friday Top 5: Dehydration Blues

It's no secret to native Texans, but to all you recent immigrants to the Lone Star State may have noticed lately, it's F-ING RELENTLESSLY HOT OUTSIDE! With Temperatures hovering above 100 and no relief in sight, it's hard to stay pleasant. Heat waves and droughts like this one are so damned oppressive, and may make you just feel flat-out angry and depressed at the world, your fellow man, and especially those teasing bastard clouds, hanging there just laughing at us and our collective misery. F those assholes, seriously its thundering as I write this with no rain to show for [...]

Sunday Mix Tape Number 213

Totally went off last night at Nate's birthday party. There was a gnarly stripper in a LOST replica DHARMA Initiative jumpsuit, way too much Flip Cup, a 4:00am Dance Dance Revolution competition, and the cops only showed up twice investigating noise complaints! I'd say we successfully dragged the birthday boy into the first hours of his 27th year with style. So, I'm gonna get some rest. How's about a mix tape for you.

Toadcast #135 – The Spaincast

Toadcast #135 – The Spaincast Recorded for you from the sunny, blazing hot mountains of Andalucia, this one is a little late being uploaded because we only just got back to Scotland and I decided I might as well wait until we got home before uploading it rather than charge all around Spain trying to find somewhere to upload from and then sitting around for ages waiting for the damn thing to... well, you get the picture. I actually spent much of the week editing Toad Session videos, which seems just a tiny little bit pathetic, even to me. Still, editing video whilst [...]

"This is a present from a small, distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings. We are attempting to survive our time so we may live into yours." — U.S. President Jimmy Carter If you were to attempt to describe our world, our lives, to someone (or some thing ) that had never experienced it, how would you do it? What could you possibly say that would encompass the incredible beauty, the savagery, the elegance, the wildness? Think of attempting to convey the [...]

All but the bravest men wilt and retreat…

Blind Willie Johnson – Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground Living within his thirty-first year of existence, Willie Johnson smothered an instrumental he was working on with capering and swooning murmurs of vocal expression - words without words. Not to lessen the strength of this sound, but if we were all without word, then this would be our attempted mating call; that fight to deter the crippling loneliness all too often felt, that cry for touch, and that desire for one of similar workings.
