Oui, oui, je me dresse contre le grand lobby des memes ! Oui Monsieur, internet n'a pas tout inventé ! Les LOLCAT se sont répandus comme un trainée de poudre depuis quelques années et deviennent de réelles stars aux millions de vue sur Youtube. Il suffit qu'un chat trébuche et c'est la planète qui s'écroule (et moi le premier) devant ce petit minois tout émoustillé. Plus sérieusement, j'espérais mettre un chat en photo et ramener des millions de vues au site. Mais je ne vais pas écrire un essai sur la théorie des LOLCAT, je préfère regarder des [...]

Today marks International Jawbreaker Appreciation Day – a perfect excuse to celebrate the rise and fall of a band that once wrote a song called 'Sluttering (May 4th)'. We got Alex Andrews on the case. “There was a sun once. It lit the whole damn sky…” It’s difficult to pay tribute to a band that is responsible for so much of what you dislike about music. You could argue that a band has little control over its legacy, [...]
Infamously cantankerous studio rat/national treasure Steve Albini doesn't like to be called a record producer. He prefers the term "recording engineer." That's a dry, clinical term for what Albini actually does, but it makes sense that he'd prefer to be seen that way. Over the past few decades, Albini has overseen the creation of countless numbers of recorded artifacts. And even though he's been an outspoken opponent of the major-label system (and of other underground-rock heroes), he's known to work with just about anyone who requests his services, whether it's a major-label juggernaut like '90s radio-grunge rulers Bush or the [...]

John Darnielle sempre buscou, em seu folk inteligente, uma abordagem lo-fi, agressiva e banhada no espírito "faça você mesmo". Logo, na passagem do The Mountain Goats pelo projeto A.V. Club Undercover , Darnielle e sua banda "de apoio" se sentiram em casa no estilo que reúne melhor todas essas características, o Punk, e escolheram a música Boxcar , do grupo Jawbreaker , para revisitar e reinventar. O Jawbreaker influenciou gêneros como o pop punk e o emocore, e esses estilos também transparecem na versão excelente e energética (incluindo [...]
In the latest installment of the A.V. Undercover series, John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats decided to take on Jawbreaker's 1994 track, "Boxcar." The song might seem like a surprising choice for the band, but thanks in part to a few lyrical changes, it really works. As Darnielle explains, “You always feel a connection to that sort of thing because the whole thing is: everybody feels beleaguered at some point. I mean, that’s the universal truth of punk… At the same time, I don’t think I feel as beleaguered as the authors of the lyrics do." Click [...]
John Darnielle and co. let loose on an unexpected punker-than-thou screed.
Video: Mountain Goats Cover Jawbreaker In which John Darnielle, Jon Wurster, and friends bring out their inner punk angst for an inspired take on Jawbreaker’s 1994 cut “Boxcar” for this week’s A.V. Undercover . As for his connection to the tune’s retaliatory lyrics, Darnielle says: “You always feel a connection to that sort of thing because the whole thing is: everybody feels beleaguered at some point. I mean, that’s the universal truth of punk… At the same time, I don’t think I feel as beleaguered as the authors of the lyrics [...]
Representing different, but intertwining sections of my life/record collection, Mountain Goats and Jawbreaker cassettes got a lot of wear in my teenage boombox. They've come together magically via AV Club's Undercover series . Makes perfect sense. Darnielle & Co. tackle " Boxcar " from 19942s 24 Hour Revenge Therapy . "1-2-3-4 / Who's Punk, / What's the Score?," etc. Read More...
Busy - Jawbreaker Apparently Jawbreaker stopped playing this song around 1989, refusing all requests for it in the remaining seven years they were a band. I don't know why. There is probably a good reason for it. Being respectful about something, to someone, maybe? No longer wanting to stir up this song's cause and sentiment? To be dicks to their audience? I would never shout out for it, but i would stand there in silent, earnest, telepathic hope that they would play it. I'd [...]
whaaaa? 4 posts in one day? that hasnt happened since probably 2007! well i dont know if you can really count this, technically, as a post cause its actually a repost, but hey im logging in more than twice in a day! actually i log in quite a bit and actually start a lot of posts, but then never finish em for one reason or another. i probably have over 100 drafts of random shit that i shouldve gotten around to. sad thing is, its not like anyone comes here for the editorial content so i dont know what i [...]

One of our favorite Web series, the ace "Dirty Laundry", continued their reign of profiling the excellent when they pulled Forgetters, the band that came from the wake of other wondrous indie rock acts from the mind/spirit of Blake Schwarzenbach, formerly of Jets To Brazil and Jawbreaker, to name just a few. The three-piece band [...]
