Hawkwind -  Silver Machine on Top of the Pops.mpeg
Today, Mark "Bez" Berry from the Happy Mondays turns 46, which is a feat unto itself, considering the amount of drugs that his band did in their heyday. Bez was the band's dancer until their brea... Continue reading "Top 10 Dancing Mascots In Rock & Hip-Hop " >

Vegan Meatloaf Sandwiches madeover with Watch out for Rockets and Robert James and the Unaccountable Freaks

Vegan Meatloaf Sandwiches madeover with Watch out for Rockets and Robert James and the Unaccountable Freaks A little over two weeks ago Mister Peanut , a monocled mascot for Planters who has remained virtually unchanged since 1916, received a makeover . Just hours later I was at Barnes and Nobel looking for some picture books when I came across Jennifer L. Helm's Middle School is Worse than Meatloaf . These two events, seemingly unrelated, got me thinking. The problem with meatloaf is that it is full of meat. How about a vegan makeover, one so solid that it would inspire a comparison between meatloaf and childhood (when everything was great)? [...]

That New Mr. Peanuts Ad

Click here to view the embedded video. Yesterday we mentioned that Mr. Peanuts was getting a sidekick, a makeover and a voice courtesy of Robert Downey Jr. Well, here it is! It's not bad, but to be honest, RDJ is a bit distracting. They should've gotten Daniel Craig or someone British. I don't know why, but Mr. Peanuts seems like he should be a suave Brit, no?

Mr. Peanuts Gets a Make-over

Mr. Peanuts Gets a Make-over The surprising news here isn't that ad execs decided to give Mr. Peanuts an updated look and a peanut-servant named Benson. It's that Mr. Peanuts, the mascot for Planters Peanuts , will speak for the first time since his creation in 1916 and that Robert Downey Jr. will provide the voice. Expect the new ad to debut tomorrow.

UNCONFIRMED RUMOR: Indie Band Grizzly Bear creates mascot, features hot chick in nipple tassels with a bear mask

UNCONFIRMED RUMOR: Indie Band Grizzly Bear creates mascot, features hot chick in nipple tassels with a bear mask Photos by http://lastnightsparty.com Popular 2k9 indie buzzband Grizzly Bear is currently sitting out 2k10, which has been known as 'the worst year of music since before the 1960s.' It seems like they are still active, trying to 'reinvent' their brand. Not sure if I can identify the ultimate goal of this hot black chick in nipple tassels. Feel like she is trying to 'get bros to crossover' to the 'chocolate side.' Maybe trying to be some sort of commentary on sexual identity and [...]

Wenlock and Mandeville — The Creepy London Olympic Mascots

Click here to view the embedded video. They resemble something out of Futurama. But at least in an episode of Futurama, or The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror, I have the comfort of knowing it's a cartoon. A comfort, that allows me to sleep at night. But Wenlock and Mandeville? Nope, no such luck. I am creeped the fuck out by them: Wenlock is named after Much Wenlock, a village in Shropshire which held an event in the 19th century which inspired the modern Games. Mandeville [...]

Best Coast begins the process of 'crossing over', debuts new video on MTVU

Best Coast begins the process of 'crossing over', debuts new video on MTVU Best Coast is the most approachable artist in the recent micro genre of 'fuzzy buzzy' guitar bands that make you sound like u r at the beach in the 50s-70s, or something. It seems like her new video is meant to 'break free' from being a blogcentric internet indie artist, and start to get some more mainstream coverage. The song "When I'm With You" seems like it is intended to be some sort of summer love song. The video debuted [via stream] at MTVU, which is supposed to be the channel that MTV uses to try [...]

Characters Out of Context

Characters Out of Context Photographer Kristi Montague has a series of photographs, " Characters Out of Context ", taking mascots and placing them into everyday life. There's a great one of an elephant doing their laundry on her website. It's a bit reminiscent of the widespread Star Wars-meme or even the Everyday Superheroes from a while ago but slightly more sour-milk funny. [ via ]

Merry Christmas! You still need music ya know! Yeah, I'm sneaking away from the TV-watching family to post some music for you, my dear readers! Holidays are a mellow affair by me... some chit chat, go to the movies, eat a bunch of food that's really bad for you, play with the dog. But there's NO MUSIC, aaack! So I'm getting my fix and giving you one too, xoxo These all came in my inbox in the past week or so: Yeah, this is just gorgeous and I regret that I couldn't get to it until now! You all know how I love [...]

In the future, will bands need 'mascots' in order to extend their brand?

In the future, will bands need 'mascots' in order to extend their brand? Photo by Kurt Christensen via BrookVeeg I remember when I was a young boy connecting with my father through mainstream interests, we used to attend professional sporting events. At these events, each team had a 'mascot' who intended to get fans 'fired up' about the home team. I'm not sure how much adults enjoy mascots, but I feel like they function as some sort of 'icon' who can get people emotionally involved/invested in the game. They are also to attract 'young fans', inviting them [...]

RIP Bobby Ubangi

RIP Bobby Ubangi Le 1er juillet dernier , Bobby Ubangi s'éteignait à l'age de 34 ans. C'est aujourd'hui que le pilier de la scène garage d'Atlanta est célébré. BJ Womack avait largement contribué a faire émerger ces dix dernières années toute la scène garage-punk de son bled. Pote de la première heure des Black Lips, de King Khan et membre des Gaye Blades, Lids et Carbonas, Bobby souffrait depuis un bout de temps d'un foutu cancer. Il ne s'était pas pas résigné à arrêter la musique, ni à jouer l'impresario et pour tout dire, il n'avait même jamais [...]
