idk if I've posted this before but this song and video are too good. We've all seen a good majority of the movies in this clip and Lupe really makes you think about their impact on society.

top comment: Damn I think I got it... Lupe's point here is that the "Double Burger with Cheese" in a literal sense is something that we've been raised on, something seemingly normal to use culturally, all the while this is something that is killing us as we just eat it all up. Metaphorically, all the behavior and depictions we see in the media and motion pictures are the equivalent to Double Burgers socially. We eat it up, but really...it's killing us.

those dudes are rad as fuck.  they have a venue in NYC called Death By Audio that they live at.  I guess the main dude funded the band during their early years by making boutique analog guitar pedals.  hope to catch them live some day
[close]

I saw them at coachella in '09 and they were loud and rambunctious as fuck. The main dude smashed his guitar mid-song during a noise freakout jam thing then plugged another one in and went back into the song. Not usually into the whole "smashing all our instruments for kicks" bit but I thought that was pretty funny. I believe the cure went on right after their set and I remember my ears were ringing the entire time.

If you guys like A Place to Bury Strangers you should also check out Skywave

skywave -don't say slow

Band from the '90s founded by the same guy, their music is pretty much identical.

damn, place to bury strangers followed by the Cure?  my guitar player would have shit a brick.  thanks for the heads up on Skywave!


found this cool little jam the other day:

(The first one, E.S.P.)

Not sure how I feel about it yet. Better than Thurstons recent stuff at least.

Today I listened to everything SmokeCrack posted most recently on the "Download these albums" thread.

My verdict?
not his best, but his continued pirative efforts are something all should aspire to.

Ive listened a shitload of music today, because I had a day off and outside, there is probably 50 cm of snow, so I dont have anything else to do. But Im gonna throw Rush there, I dont believe there can be a human that dislikes them.

Rush - Limelight (Live)

Rush- The Spirit of Radio (Live)

And also, Im gonna throw these fuckers here,currently my favourite band, The Black Pyramid:

Black Pyramid - Visions Of Gehenna (Promo Video)
