national past time is juiced.

sup, holmes? or is it homes? ok this is going to be the last redesign for a long time, cause i actually am purchasing this one. so, i will feel more or less attached to it or i guess more or less attached to not wanting to feel like i am wasting money - which i am actually pretty damn good at. thoughts? i dig it, but what say you?

edit-thanks for everyone’s input. i am going back to this one for right now until i decide wtf i am doing and work out some of the kinks with the other one.

hey, dr pepper wants to give everyone in the good ol u s of a free can of their good stuff. the only caveat is that gn’r must release chinese democracy before the end of the 08. could a free can of my favorite pop be enough to get this fuckin record out? yeah, probably not. i am guessing that its been scrapped yet again or at very least he’s waiting to get that promise from dr pepper up to a 6 pack for everyone in the u.s.

i have been wondering what booze explosioner russell simins has been up to lately, actually not really, but its good to know he’s not dead. anyway, as it turns out he’s been working on a record with dan the automator, seems like a cool pairing, and they are going under the name men without pants. havent heard the record, naturally, but it features a long list of peeps including sean lennon, members of cibo matto, mooney suzuki and apparently the lead chick of the yeah yeah yeahs is singing back up on this here track. not too sure what else to say except it should be a fun record for sure.

and the girls go

i kinda like it when i feel a band could kick my ass, which isnt saying much, but i am damn sure i could at very least take sufjan. such is the case with vincent black shadow, who i kept refering to in my brains as vincent black lightning. on first listen one might surmise that motorhead may be a big influence, and i think you may be correct, but theres a lot more shit going on then lemmy’s moles got hairs. imagine, if its possible, the bizarre offspring of a freaky tool heavy threesome that may or may not included members of dillinger four, the cramps, comets on fire and the two ladies from nashville pussy. check em out!

their debut, more deeper, is out now with a special release show goin on at the cake shop in nyc on 3.29.

i’ll lose everything, but i wont let go of your hand

welcome to the first installment of “the same 5 questions with…” the first willing participant to take on these 5, albeit very lame questions is montreal, canada’s bad flirt - who play the treehouse in lawrenceville, ga on saturday evening.

the six members that make up bad flirt conjure up a sound that reminds me of makin out. not like the awkward mashin of your early teens, but like the late night alcohol fueled encounters some of us have somehow talked ourselves into and then only very awkwardly talked ourselves out of sometime the next day. maybe its cause lead flirt jasamine’s vocals makes my brain recall a dream i once had about makin out with juliana hatfield, who jasamine kinda sounds like. or maybe its their three guitar attack that gives me that tingly feeling. who knows? whatever it is, bad flirt make a sound that i truly dig. even if i aint gettin any. at least, at the moment.

1. your record would be the perfect soundtrack to what?
An episode of Thats So Raven.

2. what are you putting off today that you wont get to tomorrow?
showering and finally buying healthy food. ah, the luxuries of tour.

3. we are all our own worst critic. is there anything, no matter how minuscule, about your record that annoys you?
Jared Leto’s harmonies aren’t what we hoped they would be…but we made do with what we had.

4. is it better to has been or a never was?
Has beens still get royalty checks.

5. tell the world a secret.
We hate babies. But we love puppies!

they have a record coming out sometime next year, and this is a track for that yet unnamed record.

heart of darkness

let it be known that after putting all this together, i watched the video for the above track and what does it have two people doing at the beginning? thats right makin out! i knew it!

their self titled debut can be purchased through their site, or maybe even at their show. check their myspace page for upcoming dates.

i talked about the ladies in atlanta’s coathangers about a month ago but i thought they deserved to be regurgitated. their new record, which i have not heard as of yet, is out on 9.4 and have made a couple more tracks from the release available for public consumption. i dont know what it is, but for some reason whenever i hear the coathangers i feel like getting laid. wow, i must really be deprived. two mildly sexual references in one post.
