Friday Night Frights: They Said It Couldn't Be Done

Oct 24, 2008, 7:20pm Armagideon Time
Friday Night Frights: They Said It Couldn't Be Done ...and then there was the time when Josie McCoy was captured by a mad scientist who wanted to hack open the Pussycat's skull and make a powerful narcotic out of her gray matter... (from Josie & The Pussycats #67, February 1973) I miss those days when comics were wholesome family entertainment. The Zanies - The Mad Scientist (from a [...]

Halloween Countdown: October 18 - come on, sing out

Oct 18, 2008, 5:50pm Armagideon Time
Halloween Countdown: October 18 - come on, sing out Ladies and gentlemen, bats and ghouls, I give you... ...Josie McCoy, Prophet of Doom! While it may seem unusual that a promising teenage pop star would turn her back on her music career in favor of issuing cryptic warnings about the End of Days, one needs to remember that Josie has shown a certain sensitivity to supernatural influences . Perhaps it's her red hair. Or maybe because she once listened to South of Heaven and "kind of liked it." Or it could be [...]

Feeling Dirty: All Things Kay Hanley

Oct 16, 2008, 10:32pm heartbreak tango
Feeling Dirty: All Things Kay Hanley So, as we Twittered at some point last week, Letters To Cleo have reunited, or cashed in on the one-off reunion tour thing, it's still too soon to tell. Immediately, 3 things come to mind: Heath Ledger (via 10 Thing I Hate About You , in which Kay Hanley, the LTC lead singer, sang atop the school's roof), the totally 90's indie-rock video "Here And Now" (which we've kindly included below, so that you can re-spend time trying to figure out the lyrics during the bridge), and, of course, Josie & The Pussycats , where Hanley [...]

Six Pack of the Week - The "Should-Be" Guilty Pleasures

Jul 25, 2008, 6:44pm Sell The Lie
Six Pack of the Week - The "Should-Be" Guilty Pleasures So, the whole idea behind guilty pleasures is that you should feel at least somewhat guilty about listening to them. If you don't feel guilty about it, do you really have a guilty pleasure? Technically, no. But there are cases were you should feel guilty about it, but don't for some reason. Usually you "justify it" in some crazy and not-completely-logical way. Yeah, we know you do it (and, in all honesty, we may or may not do it ourselves). Without further ado, here are some songs that should-be our guilty pleasures (and some [...]

a short hike From the pages of Josie & The Pussycats #69 (June 1973) comes this choice Melody Valentine moment: While other comic book publishers were trending toward the lurid end of the spectrum back in the early 1970's, the upstanding folks at Archie Comics took pride in keeping things clean and wholesome....

the angels got together

Mar 11, 2008, 4:53pm Armagideon Time
the angels got together I've tried on more than a couple occasions to make sense of the theology under which the Archie-verse operates, but have yet to reconcile the many troubling doctrinal contradictions at work in Greater Riverdale during the early 1970's. While Christian fundamentalist overtones were unmistakably (and vehemently) present , there were also strong occultist (if not outright diabolic) undercurrents in the mix, such as classroom discipline through Satanically-directed face melting ( apparently face-melting was "in" that year ) and the presence of an actual coven of witches within the city limits. While I would qualify that last example [...]

Friday Night Fights: Have to Put My Magic Powers to Use

Oct 19, 2007, 9:00pm Armagideon Time
Friday Night Fights: Have to Put My Magic Powers to Use (from Strange Tales #171, December 1973; by Wein, Colan, and Giacoia) Brother Voodoo, "The Man Who Lived Twice," conjures up a fistful of hurting on Baron Samedi. While I had planned to keep with the Frankenstein theme during the October convergence of Balactus's Friday Night Fights and my Halloween countdown, I couldn't pass up the chance to spotlight one of my favorite mondo obscuro characters of the 1970's. Jericho Drumm stands not only between the realm of spirits and the material world, but at the intersection where the 1971 relaxation [...]

First off, I'd like to thank everyone who took the time to comment on my last post. I felt a little dizzy from all the praise, but the consensus was that whatever I'm doing here is working for you folks. That's nice to know, as I'm too complacent and old to change my ways at this point.

Let's Go Pop: A Power Pop Mix By I Rock Cleveland

Jan 1, 2007, 12:55pm I Rock Cleveland
Let's Go Pop: A Power Pop Mix By I Rock Cleveland I never intended to put together a 24 song, 77 minute power pop mix. It just happened. One night I found a reissue of Flippin Out, a mid-nineties power pop gem by the Boston band, Gigolo Aunts, on eMusic. Later that same night, I found myself buying the out-of-print three decade power pop compilation, Poptopia, that Rhino released in 1997 (for a considerable mark-up I must add). It didn't end there, as the next two weeks I was obsessively scouring the internet and tearing through my old cd rack in search of the best power pop music ever made. The [...]
