I don’t really have too much to say today. I may have to take my mac in for a quick repair. My audio jack got fucked up and obviously that is a big problem for me. A even bigger problem is that they say it may take 3-5 fucking days just to repair this. Something [...]

[NEW] The Mars Volta – Since We’ve Been Wrong

By Will | May 28, 2009

By Will | May 27, 2009

Take a look at The Gin Riots, they are one of the hottest bands coming out of the UK. The London band is riding some solid buzz with their new single “The Polka’ and for good reason. The song has a lot of energy, and demonstrates what this band can do. The band named themselves [...]

By Will | May 24, 2009

I should have posted this track sooner, I have been enjoying this song for a while. Vega’s No Reasons is a perfect summer, dance/electronic song. Try not to move to this one. The song is off his Well Known Pleasures EP, which was released on May 19th. Vega is the project of Austin’s very own [...]

[Video] Grizzly Bear – Two Weeks + WNYC Recordings

By Will | May 23, 2009

I posted the video for the wonderful, haunting, GB single “Two Weeks” above. After watching it, I was a bit creeped out. However, in some weird fashion it does fit the song! The video is basically just the band singing the song in slow motion, along with some editing making their eyes weird and making [...]
