Aqueles Queridos Anos 2000: 2.0(00) Mixtape

MoreFeb 6, 6:00pm Bloody Pop

por Ênio Jr. Seguindo com os mixtapes lembrando da década passada, venho com com esta 2.0(00) (sim, é um trocadilho geek infame). Foi difícil selecionar, mas entre várias dos anos 2000 ficaram estas 14 melodias que me marcaram de alguma maneira, seja pela época e/ou situação que comecei a escutar, seja pela própria música. Alternam-se momentos calmos com outros mais agitados e as obviedades com coisas não tão óbvias assim. [MP3] 2.0(00) Mixtape [...]

Click here to view the embedded video. Her older sister may have won all the Grammy's last night, but it's become glaringly obvious that Solange Knowles has surpassed Beyonce when it comes to the reservoirs of coolness puddling at the respective feet. That's including Jay-Z as arm candy. During a recent New York City concert with of Montreal (the one that feature actress Susan Sarandon spanking a gaggle of men dressed as piggies, no less), Solange came out during the encore and absolutely killed this cover of the Jackson 5's "I Want [...]

"Is he crucifying himself or torturing himself?" "Is there a difference?" "Is it possible to crucify yourself or does someone else have to do it for you?" "I just hope Susan Sarandon doesn't get involved." I took the above video at the end of the main set of the of Montreal show at Highline Ballroom in NYC earlier this week. Earlier in the night, yes, Susan Sarandon had come out and spanked the band's pigs ( see here ) and other stuff, too ( see here ). . "What is Susan Sarandon [...]

I'll admit the spanking man-pigs thing was a little too weird, even for of Montreal, but this video from the same concert completely makes up for it. The band is playing "A Sentence of Sorts in Kongsvinger", one of my favorite tracks from Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?, and Susan Sarandon , apparently the world's hippest grandma, is back on stage, this time dancing with mimes and throwing streamers at the crowd while the band gives an energetic performance of the indie pop gem about being on the verge of a total breakdown while [...]

Solange is making a guest appearance on Of Montreal's next album, and the two acts evidently had enough fun in the studio that they're now exploring how it feels to share the stage (and a live audience). But instead of performing their as-yet-unrevealed original track at Kevin Barnes & Co.'s gig at the Highline Ballroom in NYC, they treated us to a rambunctious cover of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back." Catch Solange and and Kevin's joyful duet after the jump, along with another MJ-inspired clip to surface this week (and no, it doesn't have [...]

Of Montreal ja parran kasvattanut Kevin Barnes lavalla Solange Knowlesin (yep, Beyoncén sisko) kanssa laulamassa Jackson 5:n hittiä I Want You Back. Miksipä ei? Ilmeisesti Knowles vierailee myös työn alla olevalla uudella Of Montreal -levyllä. Liekö YouTubesta löytyvä 1:11 kestoinen pianoballadi Enemy Gene tulossa sille? Samaisella keikalla nähtiin Susan Sarandonkin, jonka tehtävä oli antaa piiskaa ihmissioille . Go figure.

Yes, that's Susan Sarandon, amidst the feathers, pretending to be a school marm and spanking pigs. This was my first ever Of Montreal show, and it certainly didn't disappoint. Yes, of course, they put on a ridiculous show, but it was great musically, too. Huge guitar sounds and stunning bass riffs kept the caffeinated crowd (most far too young to drink legally) jumping up and down throughout their entire set. I don't love Of Montreal as much as most, but I do think they're a wonderful, important band, and their show met all of my expectations, even after some of [...]

Susan Sarandon and Solange Knowles Crash Of Montreal Show at Highline Last Night, Cover J5 and Spank Pigs (Respectively)

MoreJan 27, 2:15pm The Tripwire

You know the scene is getting weird when two ladies of completely different socio-ethnographic backgrounds are making costumed cameos at a mainstay indie rock show. In a surprise move at the of Montreal concert at the Highline Ballroom last night, Susan "The Punisher" Sarandon entered stage-left and started striking the asses of grown men dressed like pigs. She remained on stage for a good while, just throwing tinsel into the audience and enjoying the limelight of her golden years. And as if that act could be followed, Solange covered the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back." The mayhem can be [...]

Of Montreal has reached a place in their performing career where each show is just a test to top the last one. Two years ago theatrical frontman Kevin Barnes rode a horse onstage at the Roseland . More recently he dressed in a centaur outfit and smeared himself with whipped cream at Santos Party House. What could top that at last night's Highland Ballroom show, announced just a couple weeks ago? Try Susan Sarandon spanking a pig. The evening began after a highly competent pop set by OM drummer James Husband, when [...]
