*** The Swedish invasion continues: Mando Diao has announced two shows at the Mercury Lounge on April 25th and 26th (the latter is with the Raveonettes). They will return on May 25th for an additional night at the Mercury.*** The Cornerstone assault on my inbox has come with mixed reviews, but you should check out some of the music they are pushing. First of all, the Louis XIV track Finding Out True Love is Blind is one of my favorite songs as of late, but this version is a bit different from the one on Ultragrrrl’s Stolen Transmission release. A little more polished which isn’t always my favorite thing, but it scratches the itch. They also passed the link to the Aqualung single. This sounds a bit like Phoenix if they weren’t French and didn’t have such a hard on for Jameroqui. They are playing the Bowery on March 21, and I’m sure there will be a bunch of hot girls there so get your tickets. Finally, there is Blue Merle who hails from the south. Don’t let their name full you. They don’t get the Led out, but they do have some nice acoustic sounds. Not for me, but you should decide for yourself.
*** I always knew the guys in Korn were complete douchebags, but seriously Brian, you’ve one-upped your overall doucheness with this move. Donkey punches anyone?
*** As we constant wonder what will happen once the White Stripes run out of juice, answers like this pop up on the radar. Big words from Benson, but these guys do have some goods.
*** Do you see what happens, Josh? Do you see what happens when you won’t stop huffing computer duster? All jokes aside, this kind of sucks.
*** You don’t have to tell me. I know she sucks, but seriously, when Torn was on MTV every ten minutes back in high school it was Boner City on South West Third Street.
*** The Sasquatch line-up is completely out of control. Wilco, The Pixies, Arcade Fire, Kanye West, Arcade Fire, Modest Mouse, Bloc Party, Joanna Newsom and AC Newman are just a few of the acts already posted on the bill. Fuck Coachella, (I’m sorry New Order, but I can’t afford you).*** How much do you know about David Bowie? Well, apparently I only know 60 points worth of information. Does this make me some sort of loser.
*** American homeless people are complete bullshit. All you can muster up is 6 layers of t-shirts and shit stained jeans. Hobo’s listen up; the Koreans are kicking your ass in the race for best dressed vagabond. Are you just going to sit there begging for change while they get the spotlight? Fuck.
*** Noah sent me this and his IM read, “couldn’t have said it better.” You know he loves this kind of press.
*** This is almost as stupid as Tipper Gore’s crusade against hip hop. What the fuck? Pete is just living his life. Why attack the artist? Shouldn’t your finger be waving at the media? Punks. Pete still has the option to get high or by with a little help from his friends.
