and a song - a fantastic song: “Don’t Die In Me” (Nighttime In The Delta Mix by Bryce Panic) [MP3] - the song is by Mirah.

the only thing that pisses on me more than republikkans in charge of weighty decisions is that more people have no goddamn’d idea who the A Frames are. in a sperlunk through my cavity of vinyl archives this weekend, I dug up the debut issue of Ladies & Gentlemen “zine” / LP / 12” screened art piece. it had the following article about A Frames inside - and seeing as though the fucker was produced in a limited + numbered batch, I feel like a little sheltered bitch. knw’whtimean?

these are 3 large jpg files - get at ‘em [read 1 first top to bottom, move on to number 2 in the same manner.. the third file is just the top image from the 12” x 12” page]: 1 . 2 . 3

so, i’ve never been a huge fan of the walkmen. something about the new album (called you and me—due out august 19th) is seriously converting me, i have to say. maybe it’s the production, maybe it’s the lyrics…i don’t know what it is. right now, though, i’m going to say two things: a. it is worth a listen and b. i think it’s going to make my end of the year list. weird. but good.

love, s.

a philly song: perhaps. but most importantly, i forgot how amazing this album is (and actually/honestly, i think i had to grow into it.) his last album is not so bad, but both A and the aforementioned PREfection are highly recommended.

"I don't start fights I make explosions"

Fucking yes the new Faint album Fasciinatiion is out August Fifth on the bands own Blank.wav imprint - and jesusfuck is it another stunner. The Faint are already cemented as one of my favourite live acts - as catching them live last year in D.C. proved that they can tour on an album that was a President’s term old and still remain solid [although showcasing one new track “Forever Growing Centipedes”].

Todd Fink and his band of merrily dark gentlemen and brothers maintain a stranglehold on the electronique/synth_saw genre - that’s just fact. Immediate keepers of the ten total on Fasciinatiion are closer “Battle Hymn For Children” that follows in the bands album closers of the past [“Birth” from Wet From Birth, “Ballad of a Paralysed Citizen” from Danse Macabre] with a sense of pleasant moroseness setting it apart from the rest of the LP. A tale of teachers, Heaven and space exploration is delivered atop a myriad of breakbeats, pops and choralesque synths. A keeper - no doubt. The one track I don’t see myself tossing into the seas anytime soon is “Fulcrum & Lever” - the tale of a young boy of seventy pounds strapping planks of wood to his back in an attempt to craft a flying machine. Safe to say the dabble in homemade flying [whilst using the neighborhoods largest kid for take off power] doesn’t go so well, as the narrator ends up eating PB&J’s in a hopsital bed. The bonus is that the child picks up some new mental power that rounds out the tracks chorus of “strange phenomena”. Sung over a beat that is likely to make Lil’ Dwayne Carter blush - I can erect’ly predict current fans will be fucking ecstatic and those not in the know will be blatantly informed.
