Modest Mouse - Little Motel Video

So Modest Mouse has been making a bunch of videos for their last album. I think they have all added to the song so I hope they keep it up. This ones for "Little Motel" and I am a little tired of videos that move backwards but I guess it works here.

Two Things I Learned Today


  1. I cannot be president of France but someone born in Wisconsin can be.
  2. Haunted Houses that look stupid on the outside can still be scary.

The Flying Club Cup


I loved Beirut's previous releases. Especially the "Lon Gisland" EP. It was short, but his latest release the "Flying Club Cup" is 13 big, grand sounding songs and none of them drag on. He gets some help from Owen Pallet of Final Fantasy. It is really worth checking this album out.

O Canada

My friend is in Canada right now and I'm kind of jealous because I'm watching law and order in Wisconsin. And i started watching late so I don't know whats going on. This band is called the Canadians but they do not sound Canadian. I think I read on another blog they are Italian which reminded me of a pitchfork article i read a while ago about how bands use to be named after where they were from e.g. Boston.

So um new header?

I think I'm going to change it back because it actually looks pretty ridiculous. I'm not even sure if its a whale and I'm the one who made it. I will leave it up for a while I guess so this post makes sense. Anyway I'm always talking about New York bands but heres some love for a Milwaukee band. Maritime's new album is called "Heresy and the Hotel Choir" out on Flameshovel Records and judging by these two songs I think I'm going to like it just as much as I liked the last one.













Maritime - Guns of Navarone

Maritime - For Science Fiction

All about jumping

So the Hayden guy from those new Star Wars movies was not the problem with them. He was actually in a movie I really liked called Shattered Glass. Anyway he has a new movie coming out which has a concept that could be pretty cool. Its called Jumper.

Heres the trailer judge for yourself



this also reminded me of this song

Sleater-Kinney - Jumpers

Magic















I don't think I believe in magic. I remember seeing that dude in the cube full of water in Lincoln Center but that wasn't magic that was just weird. I do however believe in ghosts.

Lafayette Street

I kind of miss home. The weather changes too quick in Wisconsin it is kind of ridiculous. I want to start my own city. It would be awesome just like this song. Which reminds me of home so maybe I should stop listening to it.

Ravens & Chimes - General Lafayette! You Are Not Alone

The Punks Are Writing Love Songs

Such a catchy song. Makes me want to listen to the Ramones.
