TMV @ UCI 01/30/08 I saw THE MARS VOLTA on wednesday and it was freaking awesome! I went down to UCI (where the show was) hoping to score a ticket to the sold out show and luckily some dude in a alternative tentacles shirt had an xtra ticket.

Heres a snippet from an Interview with Omar of The Mars Volta that I think states a true point in downloading music: As far as leaks and everything like that, I think it's great. I don't care if people "steal" our music. You can't really steal our music because I'm making our music to be heard. If you can't afford to buy our music, by all means take it. It's more important that you listen to

In a awkward display of sunshine on my dismal existence, masters of death metal At the Gates return. This band is one of the highlights of metal for me along with Death and a few others. They broke up in 96 and members went on to other bands bands like Disfear (who I also enjoy). They announced recently that they're doing a comeback special tour with no plans on recording any new stuff. I

This Saturday the 29th L.A. Record presents the Crystal Antlers, Moris Tepper and, Mike Watt (of Minuteman fame) at Long Beach's own Prospector, the smallest venue in town. Having seen the Crystal Antlers play early this month @ the prospector I'll just give a warning .......... be prepared. Tickets are only $5 and the drinks are stronger than the bouncer.
Since i haven't posted in like 6-8 months I'm kinda behind on updating you with new music. Heres something that you might like.........

In my never ending quest to find new shit to listen to I come across a forgotten fav from the 90's Digable Planets. I was only in Jr. High when the Rebirth of Slick came out and I rushed to my local Blockbuster Music and bought the cassette single. It got madd play for about 3 months cause thats when we took a family trip to Oregon and I blessed my little cuz E with it showing how cool his cali

Why the fuck would you put them at a 2 pm slot?! Now they left So. Cal. and are headed for Frisco. Oh Well. For those new to them they are a psyc band outta Austin Texas, this is their third album and its
Punk rock proves to be the cockroach of the music world. I've been lamenting recently about how there's no good new punk out there to listen to. Once again my lack of exposure to the outside world could be the reason for this or the fact that most of the blogs out there are about "indie" music or tons of shitty remixes. But as I recall isn't punk the O.G. D.I.Y. or at least set the precedent
