Screw you Easter Bunny!

RECORD STORE DAY IS COMING!

April 18th is the one day this year that all of the independently owned record stores across the country and around the globe come together with artists to celebrate the art of music. Special releases and promotional products are made exclusively for the day and hundreds of artists in the United States and abroad make special appearances and performances. Festivities include performances, cook-outs, meet & greets with artists, parades, djs spinning records and on and on. Metallica officially kicked off Record Store Day in San Franscisco on April 19, 2008 and Record Store Day is now celebrated the third Saturday every April. This beats the pants off all those other April holidays!

Oh Kanye...

This weeks "South Park" consisted of an extended bit on Kanye West's inability to understand a joke involving fishsticks made at his expense. It was funny in pretty much all the dumbest ways possible. And, of course, it was only a matter of time before Kanye blogged a response. Kanye has his statement up now, and it's sort of embarrassing, if only because nobody should ever admit that an episode of "South Park" hurt his feelings. Especially Kanye...Also he spells "Lil Wayne" like "LITTLE WAYNE"...whatever...808's was good though.

It's Blitz!

This album definitely has my vote for best album art of the year.

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs have grown up with their third album It's Blitz!. While some fans will possibly be turned off by the synth driven "Zero" and the haunting "Skeletons" I am enjoying the YYY's new sound. This is probably one of the most underrated bands out there and It's Blitz! just might make everyone sit up and take notice. I cant wait until number four.





Just in case you did not hear the YYY's before version 2.0 here is a taste...
