Shrag "Why Are You Here? - The sloooooow drip of new Shrag tunes continues with this forthcoming single on the Where It's At Is Where You Are label. This time, team Shrag takes on dreary borecore audience members who come out to shows as if they were under duress, and drag down the mood of the entire room. Whereas a lot of bands seem to go for a "Why aren't you dancing??? You should be dancing!!!" message regardless of whether their music is actually good enough for dancing, [...]
If you've noticed a slowdown in OTD's blog-surfing posts, it might have something to do with our discovery of Chinese bootleg internet TV portals that allow us to watch the World Cup on ESPN without leaving our desks. Sorry. Nonetheless, the summer plows forward. Since people are already laying odds on what's destined to be this year's official summer jam , we figured we'd better get back in the game. THE SONG: Beyonce and [...]

Genpets is a hoax but that didn't stop me from secretly hating myself for wanting one after finding out about it through the magic of Livejournal. The artist, Adam Brandejs, manufactured the idea with the help of his girlfriend and released it to various galleries and a Canadian storefront. The reaction he recieved for the work was utter shock. In fact, "While in the store window of Iodine Toronto, the shop owner began sleeping in the store as many nights, people would bang at the windows furiously" ( Brandejs' official site ) This is probably exactly what Brandejs was [...]

The Streets' new album, The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living, doesn't come out until April 25th, but the first single "When You Wasn't Famous" has a video. Check it out. And while we're on the subject of British imports, Lady Sovereign is getting big fast. Her next stop in Philly will hopefully be more positive than the first one . Here's the video for "Random".

Jay-Z protege and London MC Lady Sovereign came to Silk City and left an indelible black mark on her young career after bailing one song into her set. Badminton Stamps said it best : Lady Sovereign doesn't care one flying fuck about you. Or you. Or you. All Lady Sovereign cares about is that the monitors at Silk City Lounge don't sound exactly to her liking. Because Lady Sovereign is a spoiled little bitch. callmeMickey was [...]
