When I got home from day job today, this fine creature was sitting on my porch so I used a picture of it as the episode artwork. It doesn't look that evil.
This episode is a bit heavy with Mind Cure releases but it's not my fault that the store keeps putting out quality releases.
Walter from Gorilla Biscuits/Quicksand/Rival Schools is in a new band called Vanishing Life. It's considered a "super-group" because there are members of ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead and Rise Against in the band. Although, no one in the band has lasers coming out of their eyes so I fail to see how they are "super" but I do like their music.
And another Hard Traveling Heroes type band is Moral Mazes. It's got J. Robbins (Jawbox) and Jonah Matranga (Far) in it. Their single is titled Magic Tommy Jackson and has the best artwork ever.
Deerhoof has released another track from their forthcoming album La Isla Bonita. This one's called Paradise Girls.
On November 24th, the Velvet Underground's third album, The Velvet Underground, is getting the 6-disc hard bound book/box set treatment. There will be remastered stereo and mono versions and an alternate Lou Reed mix. Hooray. My ears can't wait.
Iceage put out a new record this week, Plowing Into The Field Of Love. I gave it a few listens today and I'm enjoying it but I'm still waiting for it to grab me. The band may be falling into the trap of over complicating their records.
Whirr has been busy of late. They put out a new record called Sway, they are reissuing Pipe Dreams and they've got a split 12-inch EP coming out in November with nothing.
The new Weezer record, Everything Will Be Alright In The End, came out this week as well and my goodness is it a fun 42 minutes.
J Mascis and the Gaslight Anthem will be in town next week. Wednesday and Friday, respectively. The Gaslight Anthem show is sold out and there may still be tickets available for J.
There's a movie about Fela Kuti floating about from town to town. Get out to see it if you can. Music is the weapon, indeed.
Gotham has forever endeared itself to my heart. Or at least their music director anyway. They played the Stooges during a fight scene. There's nothing better than mixing Iggy with Batman.
The Flash started last night. It looks like it will be lighter and a lot more fun than most modern comic treatments. Arrow started tonight and hopefully it stops looking like a soap opera and maybe they'll let the male actors start wearing shirts more often.
ComiCon was a few weeks ago. Here's a picture of the Batmobile:
They wanted $10.00 to sit in it. I almost laughed at the guy when he told me that.
I did get to meet Chris Yambar. He's an artist for the Simpsons comics put out by Bongo Comics. Here's a picture of a drawing he made:
I made it out to see Tusk. Funniest horror movie ever.
Thanks for listening.
Don't make me feel like a prize asshole and not mention my casserole.
Rock over London. Rock on Chicago.
