You have to wonder whether I really have the credentials to take responsibility for the running of things here at Casa Del Toad while Matthew's away. Perhaps Rrandy's (sic) comments about me following The Vines review were right after all. I mean, I have terrible taste in music. It's frankly embarassing. There are truly awful songs out there which, despite their terrible-ness, remain capable of putting a huge grin on my face, getting me jiggling my wobbly bits, and howling along ecstatically but no doubt sounding like a cat in a deep-fryer.

Track 1 - 40#2 Track 2 - City Basements I think I've finally got it. If I had to sum up Atlanta's Program the Dead I would say they're a mix between early Tool or Helmet, post-hardcore bands like Drive Like Jehu and These Arms are Snakes, a little Kyuss, and a lot of classic rock like the Doors and the Yardbirds. That took a lot of mulling over, and no doubt someone will disagree with me, but at least for me it's one step toward understanding Program [...]
LACK OF AFRO " Press On " the debut album from Lack Of Afro was one of the albums of 2007, effortlessly straddling the cool crowd and the less so. The lovingly crafted samples, and stomping funk had the Hoxton set convinced the Avalanches had made a funk album, while Radio 2 lapped up the tunes and the inspired use of Steve Harriet's golden voice on killer single " Touch My Soul ". Brilliant though it was, I approached the live show with some trepidation... how would such a heavily sample based album translate up [...]
On the left: The inexplicable winner of last night's episode of Project Runway , which I found really ill-fitting and not as worthy of last night's title as Kenley's gorgeous design . On the right: Eddie Van Halen's "Frankenstein" guitar, which I didn't realize was the designer's unconscious inspiration for the frock until MTV's blog pointed out that fact. (NB: That doesn't make me like it much more.) [ MTV Newsroom / Dress pic via Jezebel ]
The guy who got pulled over while driving under the influence of nuts and tried to explain away his crimes by waving around his scarves claiming he was David Lee Roth has been unmasked: His name's David Kuntz, and he's a musician who's been tooling around Ontario for a number of years. According to the Globe & Mail , Kuntz celebrated slipping through the fingers of the law last month by "[breezing] into a Brantford bar with a few women in hospital scrubs on his arm.... between sips of orange juice mixed with ginger ale and cranberry [...]
That's the only question remaining. Because everyone else, including a struggling songwriter supposedly working with the Diamond one, believed a David Lee Roth imposter who had every other detail nailed was the real deal . First it was reported that Diamond Dave was pulled over while speeding to the hospital for an alleged peanut allergy reaction; then the real Diamond Dave came out professing his love of nuts and declared that the cops who reported the arrest were swindled by an imposter. Mystery Dave even had the hospital nurses hoodwinked, taking two of them to a local [...]
Boy, I'm really letting you see behind the curtain here. There'll be no question as to what my favorite albums are anymore, they're (mostly) all spelled out for you nice and easy right here.

Earlier this week it was reported that terrible disc jockey David Lee Roth (you may also know him as the singer for some band called Van Halen) nearly died after an allergic reaction to eating nuts. Not so, Roth now says in a statement: "I had no allergic reaction to nuts. I love nuts. Me and nuts go together like Siegfried and Roy. I mean, I don't love nuts in a gay way, just in a totally masculine, 110% hetero way. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go change in [...]
"Hey, you got synth-pop in my hair metal!" "Hey, you got hair metal in my synth pop!" "Actually, it's Atlanta based rock group Dearestazazel! Wow!"

Last night I'm sitting at East Park with a few friends, enjoying the downtown fireworks when an ice cream truck pulls up. This was mildly annoying, because we were trying to listen to the radio broadcast of the Nashville Symphony that accompanies said fireworks, but whatever... ice cream trucks are synonymous with summer, so it's hard to hate on them. So we're sitting there watching the rocket's red glare to the soundtrack of ice cream truck jingles, and after a few seconds I turned to one of my friends and asked "Is that 'Deck The Halls?

But the low quality image just makes this clip more badass. Watching it now, you can see how dudes like Van Halen ripped off Bad Company's stage moves, making them bigger and more flamboyant but always keep that chip balanced on the shoulder. [...]

It's part of a larger social trend, to be sure.
