On Saturday, November 5th, I had two obligations. First, there was a birthday party at the Skylark Cafe for Troy Nelson of the Young Evils . I certainly didn't have to stop by, but he'd been kind enough to buy a book so I figured it was the decent thing to stop in and wish him a happy one and say thanks. The other thing was at The Crocodile. Julia Massey and the Five Finger Discount were playing for the Croc's Dia De Los Muertos celebration. I'd met Julia once before, and like Troy, she'd been kind [...]

You know why the Giants lost the season opener to (shudder) LA ? You didn't have this shirt. Do the Bay a favor and head to one of my favorite Petaluma stores, Heebe Jeebe , to grab this killer shirt designed by John Hersey .

1. Loft965.com picked your track "War Is Hell" as a "Sexy Track" of 2011 . How do you feel about that? What is the inspiration behind the song? I think its great but also very ironic. I wrote this song after a pretty epic fight with an ex. I had all of these little Dia De Los Muertos figurines that got broken as a result of said argument. I was talking to my sister the day after saying how I was looking at [...]

Last of the posts in honour of the day of the dead/All Souls Day. Thanks to all who contributed. I wanted to add Barbara's bone-chilling Nantes , I think there's nothing more devastating then to go visit your father for the last time, only to find out that he's already buried. Instead, I want to end on a more upbeat note. Thomas Fersen, he who sings like he just got out of bed remembering the beautiful words he wrote last night, sang the very witty Monsieur on his Qu4tre album. It's sung from the viewpoint of a major domo, [...]

My oldest and most favorite desk tchotchke is an Elvis decanter-bust. Plus, he was the soundtrack on My Hairy Commute . Suffice it to say, I loves me some Elvis. So when Rich sent me these incredible busts by Miss Lucky Hellcat I was floored. While they're not decanters, they more than make up for it in style. Check out her Dia De Los Muertos Elvis , Zombiefied Elvis , and even a Joker Elvis . So rad. Thanks, Rich ! RELATED : SF: Honk If [...]

Ever since I discovered Sylvia in Juxtapoz many moons ago, I haven't got her Por Vida series out of my calaveras. Figured Day Of The Dead was the best day to get it stuck in everyone else's, too. See more at Sylvia Ji's official site and MySpace page.

Honestly, I just watched this movie for the first time the other day while carving pumpkins. And honestly, besides the amazingness of Tom Savini's gore and zombie makeup and John Harrison's soundtrack, it bored the crap out of me. There I said it. I would call this movie, "Annoying People Arguing About Zombies In a Bunker". Ugh. The best part of the movie is at the end of the trailer and this song, so watch that and listen to The Dead Walk and you're set. Sorry George. John Harrison- The Dead Walk

by phil miller In the spirit of Halloween, one of my favorite bands, the kick ass Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have just released details of a new album called The Effects of 333. BRMC released a cryptic message through their website last Friday giving only a date and the words "Dia De Los Muertos," which translates to " Day of the Dead ." The Effects of 333 will only be released online and will mark the first off the bands own independent, Abstract Dragon label. Citing [...]
