The Black Keys Are The One

Get ready to hear one of the best songs of this year:

Black Keys - You're The One

Quick slip of the finger

While opening up Craigslist for my daily dosage of time killing, I accidentally typed in the url http://www.craiglist.com/. Porn people are crafty. NSFW.

I then proceeded to waste more of my day trying to type in url's similar to MySpace and seeing what I could pull up. Here are some things that I tried:

Myspac.com ----> nothin'
Nyspace.com ---> commerical real estate
Nyspac.com ----> nada
Myspice.com ---> EUREKA! Another porn site



I'm currently looking for a new place to live somewhere in the Echo Park/Silverlake area. If anybody knows of a one-bedroom or a two-bedroom for cheap, send the information my way.

I also want a lowrider bike. Here's one that caught my fancy.




Low - "Silver Rider"

The Raveonettes - "Attack Of The Ghost Riders"

DJ Shadow - "Monosylabik"

People Under The Stairs - "The Joyride"

Hot Chip - "You Ride, We Ride, In My Ride"

Sunset Junction

This weekend in Silverlake.

None of the bands interest me that much but I wouldn't mind walking around, eating, drinking, and doing the basketball dance amongst a crowd of strangers. Yeah, I'm gonna be "that" guy.

Dem Bones

Hello,
We are Bones, a duo out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
We have a national release on our own label, 10/9/06.
You can check out the band at www.myspace.com/bones or
www.bonestheband.com. New Orleans Antigravity Magazine
said "Meet Bones, the Baton Rouge duo dressed like a
couple of Hasidic diamond merchants, who are chewing
up rock genres and puking them back in your face.
Musically, Bones comes off like a sex-crazed pit bull
broken free of its leash; focused, furious, and
practically unstoppable.. Their album Disconnected is
no disappointment either. This is not music for your
head, it's music for your crotch.
We would love a review.

Please go read:

This thing is fucking cool. Wrench + Bracelet= Yes please.

Now It's Underway...

Things are going to change dramatically within the upcoming months for me though I'm trying to keep a lot under wraps, shit is intense, but not as intense as this song.

This song is amazing.... I noticed it on the homepage of Elbo.ws today via some blog called Clever Titles Are So Last Summer and being a Now It's Overhead fan I snagged it.

It's gorgeous, check it: Now It's Overhead - Let Up

Go LA:

Occidental are three dudes and a laptop from Los Angeles. JC also doubles as a DJ at KXLU, hands down the best radio station in the LA area. Their Mogwai-ish sound really fills a room.

Check them out: Occidental - First, Not Last

Holy shit, go to this for me, would you?
