If you were at the Pour Haus for The Instruction's show last Friday, then you are probably biting at the bit to get to see those guys play again. Luckily for everyone, the will be at Headliners this Tuesday, June 3rd. The Instruction will be supporting NYC's The Age of Rockets and the [...]
Has it really been a year since the last Star Wars Day? You know... " May the 4th Be With You !" Last year I posted a music video for mc chris ' "fett's vette" made by a fan. Why not start up a tradition? This year I bring you the new Snobots remix of the song which you may have heard before if you've caught mc chris live lately. He also posted it on his MySpace at one point. Enjoy! [...]
Aesop Rock - Citronella (m4a) One song from Aesop Rock's 2007 album, None Shall Pass , has already been posted in this theme. But I think that album was one of the best of the year in any genre, so here is another song. A stream of consciousness rant against television, this mixes Aesop Rock's skillful and surreal wordplay with scratches by DJ Big Wiz. Tobacco - Dirt (featuring Aesop Rock) And if you enjoyed that, here is another song featuring Aesop Rock [...]

Something I came across recently that's really facinating - Nerdcore. Take a bunch of geeks, and turn them into rappers. It's a new genre that's come about essentially with the rise of the internet. Songs have content relating to Star Wars, The Matrix, Futurama, Conventions, computer games, the internet, science, technology and things along those lines. It's an interesting bunch of songs. There's a documentary coming out, called Nerdcore Rising , which charts the rise of this genre. It's opening here in Vermont this weekend. Particularly good timing for a geek entry, because tomorrow [...]
You Sound Like A Robot's one year older, one year wiser, a rock and roll star, king, czar, and a kaiser. A room full of friends, a mouth full of cake, every present is for You Sound Like A Robot and it feels pretty great. You Sound Like A Robot's the man of the hour, the V.I.P., You Sound Like A Robot gets the first slice of the P-I-E. But first blow out the candles and make a wish, put a smile on because it's You Sound Like A Robot's birthday, BITCH! Today officially marks You Sound Like [...]
He would probably watch Weeds . Kevin Nealon on 4/20 I'm no pot smoker by any means (although I have slightly dabbled in Hawaiian ganja), but I am a huge fan of the Showtime series. So when the above video was sent to me via email in celebration of the reefer holiday, I just had to put together an impromptu playlist for all you lovers [...]

Don't call him Nerdcore , even if raps about video games and Star Wars (among other things). He shows up on time for a radio interview, while other rappers are late, or don't even show up, which sets him apart from other rappers with street cred. He blogs like crazy , and cracks me up on the daily! There is so much to say about MC Chris , so I'm just going to link you to a few interviews, give you some Youtube Videos, and even drop a few MP3s your way, [...]

On his MySpace yesterday, mc chris officially released an image of what will become the cover artwork for his upcoming album, mc chris is dead ... The art was painted by artist David Mack . View a higher resolution image of the cover art by clicking here . Since I don't want to leave such a small post, why not throw a few mc chris mp3s up that I haven't posted yet?! These [...]

What can be said about MC Chris? Well, for one, it's probably the most hilarious rap I have ever heard and he definitely does not take himself seriously. He also samples the NES game "Gauntlet II" in my favorite song by him, "The Tussin"… so mad props for that. Finally he has a distinctly high voice for a rapper, which just adds to the hilarity. In conclusion, you should probably check it out. Actually, you watch Adult Swim, you probably already have heard of him, [...]
Just some stuff to hold you over until another, serious post. If you've been into a mall or a Hot Topic lately on a Friday or Saturday night, and seen all the little eigth graders running around and wondered what was up, this little girl can tell you. Hilarious. couple of great, great tracks (for the moment): Brand New Car - Uffie White Dove - John Vanderslice Gone ft. Cam'Ron and Consequence - Kanye West [...]

Here's a quick list of things that have been in rotation around here. If I had time to write a bunch of pretty things I certainly would, but there are many things to do. So have a listen, and if anything sounds good just follow the link to find out the rest. Ivan Ives - "Victory" (feat. Vast Aire) myspace.com/ivanives Aesop Rock - "None Shall Pass" [...]
July 19 is the 200th day of the year. On this day in 1879 Doc Holliday killed for the first time after a man shot up Holliday's New Mexico saloon. * WISC : Teens Getting High By 'Robotripping'; Cough Medicine Abuse Sending Teens To Hospital * MP3 : MC Chris :: "The Tussin" * TDP : Pepsi abandons Party in the Park for Halloween - WSUM moves to the Terrace and rebrands PitP as "Snake on the Lake" Festival [...]

Do you guys in Britain watch Aqua Teen Hunger Force ? Does it play there? They have a film that just came out, with the word 'Colon' in its title. In case you're unfamiliar, here's what Wikipedia says: The show is about three anthropomorphic fast food items and their life together in New Jersey. The Aqua Teens were originally billed as a detective crime fighting unit; as the series progressed, however, the crime-solving aspect of the show was quickly abandoned. There is very little continuity between episodes; almost all recurring cast members have [...]
If the film Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters isn't for everyone , then that could easily be said about the soundtrack. Some understanding of the hilariously cruel and bizarre world of the Adult Swim series is probably necessary to appreciate a milkshake singing a rock ballad called "Nude Love." But then again, how can you ever really truly understand a plot where the aforementioned milkshake (Master Shake,) a ball of hamburger (Meatwad) and a pack of fries (Frylock) attempt to save the world from [...]
Normandy - "Kentucky Isolation" I see great banners, or great pillars, or great lights. I see a mansion alone, no faces or bodies, but their presence implied, suggested, they could be four damn stories tall, who knows? This song blares at whatever volume you set it. It doesn't wear a seatbelt. It's like writing an exam you know you've failed; it's oddly satisfying. It's just got some good vibrations in it, that's all. [MySpace] MC Chris - "Ratz" I never lived in a dorm. I also never went to summer camp, which I imagine is similar, except one of those [...]

Downloadables: "Harry Potter (skit)" "DQ Blizzard" "Robotussin" "Pop Punk Is Dead (skit)" "Fuckin’ Up My Xmas" "Engine [...]
