SOTD: Biggie- “Gimmie the Loot” (1994)
This is easily one of my all time favorite rap songs; it has everything- incredible delivery, danceable beats, dark, violent, but simultaneously amusing lyrics, flawless flow, and best of all you can sing along to it, it’s very interactive in that almost Fugazi way. You know what I mean?
And this is when y’all should be nodding your head and saying “nigga you ain’t got to explain shit…”

Nobunny On Chic-A-Go-Go! [2011] !
The Growlers – Gay Thoughts LIVE
What you get at a Growlers show in Cali: beautiful women, some here and there moshing, beer, of course. And some music like none other. If you really think about it, there aren’t any bands doing what these guys are doing. It’s something special. This one here is a 2011 cut off a 7″ of the same name, in honor of record store day.
SOTD: No Age- “Dead Plane” (2007)
I love the build ups on Weirdo Rippers (2007), No Age’s first LP (well sorta…). Everything is purposeful, in other words, I get exactly why they do everything, or at least I think I do. The anticipation, the quiet is made all the more exceptional when they finally explode into the heavier half of the song and include vocals as well. For a lot of artists, I can’t get into their build ups, they just seem to be creating dead space and wasting my time, which is probably not the case, but it seems that way. In any case, a great tune and this video perfectly captures it. Now, all I need is to get No Age to play in my basement…
P.S. Dean is wearing a Mika Miko shirt. Go Dean!
