Of all the issues we're forced to think about on a daily basis in this ever-turbulent world - the shaky world economy, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, political unrest in Tunisia and Egypt, illegal immigration, climate change, Rodney King - surely one of the most burning questions on the forefront of your mind is "What [...]

I just learned that "El Guapo" from The Three Amigos has the same birthday as me, and that he also directed Like Water for Chocolate. My mind is blown. Also mind-blowing: Cracked's revelation that if you play three songs from Tool's 10,000 Days simultaneously in a certain order, you get a whole new song - [...]
From Fastcodesign : Wordmark.it is a tool to end our suffering. It's a free website that scans your computer's installed fonts and displays them in a simple visual grid for easy browsing. You can even change how big or small the grid tiles are. This is going to be immensely useful. It's already booked and the next time I need to figure out what font to use for a project, this will be the first place I turn to. No more hunting and pecking. I can't imagine this will [...]

Concerts happen every night. (Just ask Beatle Bob.) Some of them you can catch just by walking past the venue. But, most of the time, you need to snag tickets ahead of the time. Let's just put it this way, if you plan on catching U2 this summer, odds are you already laid down some bucks last September, or even earlier. That's just how it goes. But, as plenty of you know by now, there are other ways to get into shows. You can peruse Craigslist, bookmark auctions on Ebay, and (sometimes) ask friends or friends of friends. [...]

Crashpoint is an alt-metal/nu-metal Czech band who released their second album Millions of Figurines (Crystal Productions) in 2008. Just so the nu-metal label doesn't turn anyone off before they get into the body of this review, Crashpoint is closer in sound to experimental side of the genre (specific points of comparison are bands like System of a Down and Tool) rather than bands like Limp Bizkit. Crashpoint is evidently looking for a wider international exposure as a review copy of the band's 2008 disc just came across to me from the band's record company. [...]

It's that time of year to hang Christmas decorations and in a few weeks take them all down. I was thinking about this as I was wobbling on our flimsy 2 rung step ladder stringing up holiday lights. The time had come for a more professional grade step-ladder that could handle all the tasks around the house such as cleaning gutters, removing palm fronds from the roof, painting, replacing smoke detector batteries and replacing light bulbs. I wanted a sturdy, safe ladder that took up very little space when it was not in use. The ladder I chose [...]
'Cause earlier this week, Billy Howerdel sent out the below tweet: Some are interpreting this message to mean "APC are breaking up again;" at best, it means that if APC are going to continue, it's not happening immediately. Which certainly seems odd, given that the band has only officially been back together for less than [...]
Intronaut Valley of Smoke Century Media 22 November 2010 by Hugh Platt I struggled to write this review. Intronaut have conspired to make Valley of Smoke as difficult as possible for second-rate blog-hacks to knock out a couple of hundred words in failed efforts to compartmentalise, categorise and contain their music. With Valley of Smoke, [...]
I really love this. But for the record, even though I know Vince is a big Daath fan, too, if you bothered to read any of the bylines on the various articles we've been doing about Daath, you'd realize that I'm really the faggot whose been too busy shoving Daath's dicks into my ears to [...]
