Let's all take a break from class.

Make it this:

Just went and saw The Social Network, Trent Reznor is the man. I would have to say however, that the whole time I thought how radiohead would be the best music to soundtrack this film. With the lyrics of desperation and loneliness I just think it could have killed it in any Zukerberg scene. So on that note I give you... Radiohead, because it's a lazy sunday and this song just makes me feel fine.

Hauschka, pianist/composer, is about to release his next full length album. Foreign Landscapes will be release on Fat Cat Records, much to my happiness. I hope any readers will give this music a chance, it is truly beautiful composition. Hauschka - Making of Foreign Landscapes part 2 from FatCat Records on Vimeo .

I want to try and get this bad boy moving again, so I am going to post like crazy over the next few days to get some wheels turning. For now, enjoy this beautiful song. Jeremy Messersmith - Tatooine from Eric Power on Vimeo . I love Star Wars

I love this.

Side note: I'm very happy that I was able to use Lil' Wayne and gonorrhea in a blog title together. Anyways, our favorite (?) dreadlocked, styrofoam cup handling rapper who gets out of jail in less than two months is back with new music! Wayne and his BFF Drake have come together and have created a masterpiece called, yes, "Gonorrhea." And by masterpiece I mean a steaming pile. You might even say the song will make you feel like you have been infected with said STD. [...]

I'm so obsessed with the fact that Solange Knowles is making a comeback (Yeah, Of Montreal is okay too, but they've been around). Not sure if anyone else remembers her earlier work , it was awesome, but this is even more awesome. Let's just hope she's not pulling an Ashlee Simpson and trying to get bigger than her sister by becoming a heinous lip-synching, rock-star-marrying freak. If I know anything about Solange (which I don't really) she's nothing like that. [...]

IOWA CITY, IA – SCOPE Productions and University of Iowa Dance Marathon have the pleasure of announcing that Jack’s Mannequin will perform at the IMU Main Lounge on Sunday, November 7th at 7:00PM featuring special guest Andrew Ripp. Andrew McMahon, piano tickling song weaver of Jack’s Mannequin, is not a typical lead singer of a pop punk band.

Jack’s Mannequin strings together songs that [...]
