Nardwuar vs. Jay-z

Is it just me or does jay-z seem high as hell and not nearly as impressed as Pharell was.



This is pretty fucking cool too, nardwuar interviwing Nirvana in 1994.

Fuck You I Won't Do What You Tell Me

I love it when bands stick it to the BBC..

If you haven't heard, some dude in the UK created a facebook group urging people to go on itunes and buy Rage's song Killing In The Name Of to make it go # 1 in the month of December. His whole quest is to topple the dominance that the X-Factor (UK version of American Idol) singers have been enjoying for some while..

So it's looking like this facebook idea is going to work and Rage is going to be #1. The BBC thought it would be a marvelous idea to have Rage perform the song on their breakfast show (??). Exceptttttt... they asked them to leave out the "Fuck You I Won't Do What You Tell Me" part.......... Who asks a band called Rage Against The Machine to censor their line that says they won't censor themselves.. and more stupidly... believes them when they say they will

Annyways video footage finally dropped on youtube of the performance..




To keep in the spirit of sticking it to the BBC.. here is footage of when they forced Nirvana to play with a backing track...ha

Fuck TMZ

title says it all

This one's for Tajir.

I'm in a library with no headphones, so I haven't checked it but here it is... Beastie Boys circa 1983.

Scenes From the Beijing Rock Underground

Photographer Matthew Niederhauser documents the burgeoning rock scene that is currently fucking shit up in Beijing. He has put all his pictures and adventures in a new book called Sound Kapital.

From Wired.com:

Tight pants, cool haircuts and rock music. They’re commonplace, even cliché, in the United States, but they’re now the icons of a complex transformation in China.

The country’s ever-growing consumer culture almost requires an increased sense of individuality and its own counterculture. And considering the shape and energy of its emerging underground music scene, it’s hard not to project a parallel mindset onto China similar to that of the United States in the 1960s and ’70s.

Oh and Niederhauser doesn't agree with that last paragraph.... check the whole article HERE

What does the "scene" sound like??? I was trying to find a bunch of songs straight mp3 or rip them off of youtube... but i came across an article Dazed Digital did... and well they have a lot of the songs I was looking for in a nice player and shit.... so go there and ENJOY

Some of my personal favorites are The Gar and AV Okubo

They didnt have this Demerit song so ill post it.. for Beijing's sake

Demerit - Beijing Is Not My Home

Some pics of The Gar..

On the other side of the world Zhan Pan, guitarist and singer of The Gar, is making history using the exact same amplifier as me.... respect fam

Turns out this silly little fella is the highest selling artist of the decade. I've been trying to tell the rest of the Vibes for years, cartoon voices of ambiguous descent is the fastest way into the hearts of America. Do they listen? Of course not.

Did I mention he sold something like 32 fucking million records?

Mystery Science Theatre 3000

I used to watch this show all the fucking time as a kid. The concept is a dude and some robots watching old horror/science fiction movies and just talking all kinds of shit. I haven't seen it since I was probably 11, so I don't know if it stands the test of time but I just found a link to all the episodes....

annnyways... go listen to some choice Dub Step cuts my man Tagir the Arabian Prince has posted...

Paola's Paradise

So when we were on tour we couldnt help but notice that Dub Step is fuckin HUGE out on the west coast. Im starting to dabble in it a bit myself, but not the kinda music i wash my dishes to... best appreciated with stingers and a bottle of everclear.

The locust

haha these guys keep it short and sweet.





Lets get this dude to make a video for us haha :P

Fuck

The best guitarist ever, John Frusciante, has quit the Red Hot Chili Peppers....again.. fuck



Music Radar and NME report on this fucking bullshit..



Here is a quote from I don't know who... maybe Chad

"Mentally, John checked out a long time ago. He's interested in doing his own thing, his own albums - the whole big rock band machinery just doesn't appeal to him anymore."

I can't lie tho.. this is why I love [II] him.
I just hope he is actually quitting to work on his own stuff.. and not just going and getting loaded somewhere

The Peppers are working with some new dude called Josh Klinghoffer... who actually toured with the RHCP, did guitar work on some of John's solo records, done some session work for Gnarls Barkley and im assuming a bunch of other shit...

Duchess Says

I saw these guys perform this summer down in the old port at some free show.. it was a pretty good show but everyone in the crowd followed protocol and stood there with their feet planted and arms crossed... waaaack

I can imagine these guys are getting the teens to dance like crazy during their opening slot on the Yeah yeah Yeah's UK tour..

Here's some shine they got on Dazed Digital

The only song i could find to download kinda sucked... so go check the music on their myspace

Women...

It's like whatever then homie..

Shout out Max the new dude..

Shout out Ava and friend for always showing!

Shout out Elderado for being awake when im drunk (it's not always easy getting drunk yo)

Shout out Freddie for that nicorette cigarette... that shit made me survive a cold winters walk (check your email for info to log into the divshare...the spin acapella is uploaded)
