Halloween Identity Crisis!
OK. So I was planning on being Gunther for Halloween, but I’ve mentioned it to a few people and they don’t get it – like they don’t know who Gunther is.
Even though he’s a platinum selling ex-Swedish male model turned techno-pop star sex icon, apparently he’s not at the forefront of everyone’s knowledge.
So what are [...]

All of Hallows’ Eve Is Just Around the Corner!!! And The Day After is Día de los Muertos!!! Does that imply that one shall wake up dead after Halloween’s festivities!?
Meanwhile, in other corner’s of the blogosphere: Video Game Themed Pumpkins!!!
Listening to Now: DJ Rupture Uproot (2008). Every time I hear anything dancehall-eque it just kills me. Why must so many perfectly decent albums throw in reggae MCs and mess shit up!?

MUSCLES update II: MySpace Page “Not Dead (Yet)”
In an emotionally draining last few days MUSCLES has posed moral questions to himself about the music industry, and MySpace inparticular.
On his MUSCLES blog he wrote “Here’s the link to my myspace blog for those interested in the on-going-saga (that is pretty stupid and i’m over it already).”
He’s going to [...]

Awesome Wayne Coyne Interview
Kaossilator built into his guitar!? Can anyone blame Wayne Coyne for signing with Warner? I mean really?

Listening to Now: School of Seven Bells Alpinisms (2008). This is my first listen but so far so good.

Does Weezer + Spike Jonze = Publicity????????? Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Gone Are The Matt Sharp Powered Glory Days of The Weeze.
It’s been 12 years since Weezer released an album actually worth listening to.
Now – after 14 years – it is time to create some nostalgia about the nostalgia that originally popularized that Weezer/Buddy Holly/Happy Days/Spike Jonze blissful glee that took the MTV Music Video Awards/the early 90s alt/indie crowd by storm.
I once saw Weezer open [...]

MUSCLES update: KILL THE MYSPACE
As theorized earlier, the reason MUSCLES is leaving MySpace is due to MySpace signing that deal with The Big 4 and sticking it to the entire independent music scene – the same scene that made MySpace popular in the first place.
Read MUSCLES angry blog post. It is good for you.
LaCinta doesn’t plan to keep [...]

After like 30 blog years of looking for my animal spirit in the desert, I was overcome by a strange feeling about MUSCLES.
Got worried about MUSCLES and ran back home ASAP.
Today, MUSCLES announced on his MySpace blog that he is deleting his MySpace Profile.
MUSCLES has been one of LaCinta’s best friends on MySpace for dozens of blog years (like multiple human weeks), and now, what, it’s just over, just like that!?
Where’s the explanation?
Are you mad at me [...]

I <3 My Mac : ) & The Long Blondes Breakup : (
New Mac advertisement – oh so witty rebuttal to the “I’m a PC” advertisements.
Wonder if that hurt Girl Talk’s feelings??? It takes real DJ balls/stubbornness/fear of OSX to mix music on a PC.
And The Long Blondes announced that they are breaking up, via a MySpace blog post. Kind of a sad [...]
