Normally, I would opt for posting Bell Biv Devoe's version or maybe the Nas incarnation , but poisons come in many flavors. Plus, Ethan Gold would probably agree that religion misunderstood is poison, and that you can never trust a big butt with a smile. For those who don't know, Martin Douglas Martin Douglas (if you say it fast it can be substituted for "Black & Yellow") is now on-staff at Pitchfork and tackled Gold's debut, Songs From a Toxic Apartment toda y . Granted, this isn't my typical [...]

Oakland/Berkeley trio Hetch Hetchy (Yosemite, anyone?) sounds a bit like their listed influences, but not as much as I would have thought considering they list a large variety of droning instrumental bands. The music they perform on the October 2010 release Glen Worple are gravitating toward a more Shearwater / brit-chamber-pop than a sample heavy instrumental drone group. The music is still layered and quite dense and would go together well with an obscure slideshow of surreal images this side of Dali. While the band is shy to perform live, you can still download their entire [...]
