The King of Ska

Desmond Decker, the King of Ska, died today at the age of 64.

The Little Ones

Last night I cashed in some free iTunes songs courtesy of Continental Airlines. After much hemming and hawing as I sorted through the $500 in my shopping cart I decided to take a chance and download The Little Ones debut EP Sing Song. It was the best decision I made yesterday. It's catchy and fun, full of energy and genuine quality. They will no doubt be compared to The Shins endlessly (The album art is even made by Jesse Ledoux who did the Shins last album). Basically it's well written guitar pop-rock. Simple melodies, yet catchy with just enough of the "now" sound to be relevant but not so much as to be annoying. Check it out if you get the chance. I'm already anticipating their first full length album.

Danger Doom Remix

Head on over to adultswim.com where you can download remixes of the Danger Doom album. They are releasing one song at a time and the entire album will be available by the end of May. The remix of Sofa King is the shiznito-bam-snip-snap-snippy!

Thom Yorke

Thom Yorke's album The Eraser is to be released July 11.

st. elsewhere

If you don't already have gnarls barkley - st. elsewhere you can now download it here.

(as you can tell from my recent posts I love this album)

Ray Lamontagne is Crazy

Ray Lamontagne covers Gnarls Barkley.

Bloc Party

Check out their set from Coachella here. Definitely check out Helicopter, as it's performed even faster than it is on the album.

colbert

A couple weeks ago Stephen Colbert spoke in front of the press and the president at the white house correspondents dinner. I'm sure you've at least seen some clips. Click on the comments for the full transcript, it's priceless.

we need hits

okay, we need to boost the adsense revenue. If you can visit this site and click on all the ads several times a day while bored at work. It only takes a second and hopefully will ad up. Hopefully that will work. Otherwise I'm going to take the ads off cause we are making dick.

People Under the Stairs

Anyone have anything by people under the stairs and want to include it in thier month? I've heard good things...

adult swim

After months of horrible ads we finally got a kickass sponsor.... Adult Swim!!!! Although I haven't watched it as regularly as a year ago Aqua Teen Hunger Force is still my favorite cartoon on TV. Also, Adult Swim is doing a compilation with Stones Throw which will feature madlib, j dilla, mfdoom, peanut butter wolf AND there is talk of a new danger doom album!!

Sugar Ray are NOT Sellouts!!!

Okay, I'm not sure who will appreciate this, but I know of two (one is Jacob, but he'll never know as he himself is a sellout for not contributing to the Club). I apologize in advance for wasting your time.

So, way back while we were at OU, Jake claimed that "Sugar Ray are NOT sellouts", in response to my claim that if you looked up "sell out" in the dictionary, you'd find a picture of this band. (This was around the time of their gay-ass pop songs like "Fly" and "Every Morning") I used to have one of their first albums, which was much more like hardcore rock (the cover had that sexy bitch from Charles in Charge naked on the cover, I believe). AAAAAAAnyway, long story short, Jacob has since rescinded his claim of Sugar Ray's keepin-it-real...ness. However, we like to continue to hold him to it, and heckle him about it.

Well, I just gained some new ammunition....

My wife (haha) has this awesome habit of flipping through channels while what we're watching is on commercials. And she hit that show "Extra". You know the gay ass Hollywood gossip show.... and I come to find that Mark McGrath (Lead singer of Sugar Ray) is like a host or something..... HAHAHAHAAH.... You No-Talent Bitch!!!!!! What a fucking sellout you are!!! Apparently, this has been going on for some time now, however, I still revel in it....

I HATE YOU, SUGAR RAY...... BUT I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU'VE STOOPED SOOOOO LOW...... What happened??? You had such a quality career brewing......

That is all...... for now

gnarls barkley

Cee-Lo and Dangermouse are Gnarls Barkley and the album is fantastic. It's a great summer album that sounds better driving around with your windows down.

Fuck the OU Horseback Cops

Right Jimmy?? Fuck 'em

Does this sound familiar???
This was on the front page of ESPN.com

Tool

So if you haven't already picked up the new Tool album go get it soon. And make sure not to buy it online or download it because it features some kickass album art that cannont be reproduced digitally.
