Rihanna was filming her new photo shoot for her upcoming album in Berlin yesterday, and boy was her hair and coat making quite the statement! As Tom Cruise would say, "Change, I think that coat is wearing you." Her hair was defying gravity, leading me to believe that she needs to fire her stylist or something ! And is that real fur? Good God, what on Earth is she wearing underneath the coat, [...]
CMJ released the band schedule for its 2009 Music Marathon & Film Festival yesterday, which is about as good a sign of fall hitting New York as the return of apple cider at Greenmarket. The festival runs from Oct. 20 - Oct. 24 and includes various venues throughout the city, and the list of featured artists would probably take all four days to read through. But skimming the selection reveals a fairly equal distribution of well-known acts like Atlas Sound and Deer Tick , anonymous locals (including krautrock-y Jeff Buckley-channelers Pocketknife), twenty-two bands who [...]
The press release below doesn't actually list all the acts performing at CMJ this year, so you're probably better off checking out cmj.sched.org to get a true idea of what's happening during this year's marathon. Of course, sched.org is a little confusing too and it doesn't list unofficial events and day parties (as far as I know), so you'll have to wait a little bit longer for info to trickle out from the blogs and other unofficial sources. Lastly, even though the press release says the schedule is "final", you can pretty much bet that things will shift [...]

Oh boy, the new BAPEX watches are sick! Now you're normally used to seeing watches like this made of metal right? Wrong! Not this time around. These are made out of a clear plastic material and come in two colorways; light green and orange and packaged in a specially made clear case. If you have grand canyon deep pockets you can cop these at Bape stores around the world in limited quantities. (Via: FreshnessMag )
( BACK TO PART ONE ) Hell and High Water (1954, 103 minutes)(buy/ rent ) "I shall try my best to make you like me... as a scientist." A private consortium suspects that nuclear activity is occurring in on an island in the neutral waters of the North Pacific. They hire a mercenary WWII vet (Richard Widmark) to captain a submarine for a recon mission. Packed in the tin can are a full crew of sweaty men and one va-va-voomish French scientist. [...]

I'm busy writin' and listenin' but will have some some new stabs at slabs to preview soon. Til then check out this re-run of my review of the Motor Sounds Records compilation Blood On The Scratchplate '65! MOTOR SOUNDS RECORDS ARTiSTS ViDEOS! This sooper high octane 21 track hunk o'punkass garage blues lo-fi rockness hails from dirty durty Northern Ireland and it kills and kills again. 21 times it kills. I just love a record label that you can trust and so far Motor Sounds [...]
Allow me to forge a fair warning: The Antlers' Hospice is not an easy record to sit through. With the right focus, in the right mindset, this album is as powerful on the soul as climbing a mountain is on the body. This album will crush you if you don't know what to expect. Hospice is at once the simplest and most immense album of the year. Its music is made of small melodies, tiny vocal ranges and repeated, winking guitar lines. It [...]
Brooklyn's Sean Bones had the idea for the reggae-inspired album, Rings , when he wanted to begin a swimsuit line with his girlfriend. They just decided one day that they would design swimsuits and make a reggae album. He says " I think when you've lived in New York City a long time, everybody dreams of living somewhere else for awhile. Some where warmer. I think that's why we started making bathing suits and reggae music. " The swimsuits idea didn't work out so well, but I'm glad to say the album did. When you listen to [...]
Girls - "Hellhole Ratrace" . Terry and Biz go down to the water. I'm still up on the deck and all I can see is Terry's blue bathing-suit passing through the trees. I am resting a white styrofoam cup on the railing. When they step out of the woods and onto the planks they are caught in the full brunt of the dock's lights. They squint like it's noon. Terry tosses her hair and laughs and from up on the deck it looks like such a noony gesture. They start talking and they must be talking about how [...]
Day 6—Napa, CA Subheadings. Why didn't I think of them before? I was road-weary and distractible. Forgive me. The Falafel Pun I know you're dying to know the circumstances that generated The Best-Ever Falafel Pun. So I won't make you wait any longer: The guy we're crashing with is a major bachelor, and he lives with all guys, too. There are a bunch of Men's Health mags kicking around, one with a doubtless enlightening cover story: Why Women Choose Food Over Sex. Kaz and [...]

With Bonnaroo just three weeks away and Summer Camp this weekend, festival season is kicking off in a big way. Our friends over at Hidden Track posted an overall guide to summer festivals: how to get there, what to bring, and a little bit on what to expect. We're re-posting it here; expect our own guides to festival success, as well as festival previews/reviews, in the coming months! 1. Get an RV. It will make life easier. Now, I've actually never attended [...]
When the Bonnaroo 2009 lineup was announced a few months ago, my roommate asked me to email him a list of festival 'essentials.' As a festival veteran of sorts - I've been to every Bonnaroo but one and attended Langerado, Summercamp, Rothbury , Coventry, Oswego, Big Cypress, and the NOLA Jazz Fest - he picked the right person to ask for such a list. In addition to my festival resume, I'm also a stickler for being organized and more importantly, prepared. As it has turned out in the [...]
Ich weiss nicht, ob ich hiermit viel zu spät dran bin. Ich musste mich ja erstmal etwas davon erholen, bevor ich hier darüber berichten kann: Soulwax bzw. 2 many DJs haben bei Rob Da Bank auf BBC1 ein unglaubliches Set von 420 Song-Intros in 60 Minuten gespielt. Total irre. Am 19. März spielen 2 Many DJs bei Donky in der Alten Börse in Zürich, eigentlich ein Pflichttermin. Leider werden sie solche Tricks dort aber ziemlich sicher nicht vorführen. Oder doch? Hier geht's zum Download . (via Asian Dan [...]
