Friday Morning Giggles [Lollerpops]

Friday Morning Giggles [Lollerpops] Someone took David Lee Roth's isolated vocal track from "Running With The Devil" and, um, ran with it in a pretty funny way. [ YouTube via John Mayer ]

Oh, the shame!

Oh, the shame! 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.

Aaliyah, Talking Heads, Van Halen, Cure Mash Up with me on bass

My good friend Jon Ragel of Boy Eats Drum Machine invited me to "join" his band for a show at Portland's Wonder Ballroom on Saturday August 16th. The premise being that it is a Talking Heads and Cure cover show! Ha! But put Jon and Dave in a room and you're not going to get [...]

Program the Dead - Dead in the City Basements

Program the Dead - Dead in the City Basements 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 [...]

That Was The Month That Was

That Was The Month That Was 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 [...]

Each month, I make a playlist consisting of an artist of every letter of the alphabet.

I encourage you to do the same. [...]

DAVID LEE ROTH'S "RUNNIN' WITH THE DEVIL" VOCAL TRACK

David Lee Roth "Runnin' With The Devil" Vocal Track
This is old, but whatever. The lack of pitch-correction on this recording is beauteous... and just demonstrates why this song actually breathes.

Bad Company's Good Lovin' Hasn't Gone Bad

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =X-tjDr9IEA4 Bad Company, "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" (Swan Song, 1975) The kickoff to Straight Shooter , Bad Company's 1975 follow-up to their debut self-titled and big breakthrough, the groove on "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" is as razor-sharp as this footage is murky and shit-tastic. 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. [...]

"Project Runway" Picks Out The Brown M & Ms [This Thing Looks Like That Thing]

"Project Runway" Picks Out The Brown M & Ms [This Thing Looks Like That Thing] 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 ]

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 [...]

I Love the 80's: Rock

There's just something about the 80's that inspires great cover songs. So great, in fact, that this series is gonna be a two-parter. First up: Rock. All the excesses of the 80's – big hair, ten-minute guitar solos, and Jon Bon Jovi – are all well represented below by artists who aren't afraid to find the good songs amidst the novelty. And stay tuned for some 80's pop next week. Jessica Will - For Those About to Rock (AC/DC) When AC/DC titled this [...]

THE FAKE DIAMOND DAVE: A JEW OR NOT A JEW?

THE FAKE DIAMOND DAVE: A JEW OR NOT A JEW? 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 [...]

Vintage Bin: Van Halen, "Hot for Teacher"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =b5t5GukrWOU Van Halen, "Hot for Teacher" (Warner, 1984) Detour is too busy redesigning its Twitter page to study the why's and how's of it, but there's a real problem in this country with teachers "having their way with" their students. It's part of a larger social trend, to be sure. But rather than theorize, or even trot out a few experts to spout their theories, most news outlets just use a reference to this, the iconic 1984 single from Van Halen. Every joke, every shot, every Diamond Dave "WHOOOAAA" – [...]

DAVID LEE ROTH SWEARS HE LIKES NUTS

DAVID LEE ROTH SWEARS HE LIKES NUTS 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 [...]

David Lee Roth Says Story About Ontario Cops Saving His Life Is Nuts

Dearestazazel

Dearestazazel "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!" Dearestazazel employ their unique talents to making a number of epic and musically complex songs that are driving and catchy on their new album Be Mine . The synth and guitar often entwine in a sweetly serpentine way that sometimes yields something akin to Violator era Depeche Mode and sometimes yields something more like a dark sped up Def Leppard thanks to some sweet riffs and [...]

Christmas In July

Christmas In July 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? ' " Turns out [...]
