Damn, this album sucks I’m not even going to continue. I think I saw a song on here called “No Man Is An Island” and for that I give it some props. Maybe it is just these first two songs that are bad so don’t judge my judgment. I’m just telling you what I’m feeling.
Hey! Eyes Off The Girl!
I know…you can’t help it. Well, neither can I.
You’re A Target!
This is the first real legit live version of this song that I’ve seen. It’s too bad that the crowd isn’t going crazy.
Tupac, Fleet Foxes On Vatican Playlist
(CNN) — Music from late rapper Tupac Shakur has been included as part of the Vatican’s official MySpace Music playlist.
The seat of the Catholic Church released a list of 12 songs onto the social networking Web site’s streaming music service this week when the site launched in the United Kingdom…
Other contemporary tracks on the mix include Muse’s “Uprising” from their new album “The Resistance” and “He Doesn’t Know Why” by the folk group Fleet Foxes.
The Vatican knows what’s up.
Those Darlins!
They opened for King Khan & BBQ Show…but only for a few weeks worth of dates. They are playing at TT The Bears on February 4! I recommend checking out some of their live videos in addition to this music vid, which bears at least some resemblance to the Black Lips’ style.

Comments: Sweet licks — bass, guitar, etc. I do like the direction of many of the instrumentals, but often times these sounds are too processed for my liking. Their blues-rock style borders garage crossover, but is seemingly heavier than that. I get a weird Rage Against the Machine vibe; apparently others do too. PJ Harvey meets RATM meets Cold War Kids meets Downbeat 5. The good news is that this album possesses a ton of positive energy and is generally fun no matter which way you spin it. Most fun? Probably “Bone House.” The amount of noise (pop) is reminiscent of Sonic Youth. Filler alert for “3 Birds.” Overall, I’m not going to be coming back to this album for my fix of blues-rock, but for a one time deal it’s a solid listen.
Final Grade: 8.1

Comments: What can I say about this album that hasn’t already been said? Well, “I’m Waiting For The Man” is kind of lackluster compared to the crackly, but excellent 1969 Live version. A change-up comes with the noise classic “Run Run Run,” which has to have had a tremendous influence on many bands. I liken 3:37-on to Black Lips’ “Juvenile” with in terms of vocal structure and quick guitar progressions. “ATP” is an experimental-pop follow-up. It’s an awesome tune, no doubt, but not amongst the greatest on here. I like the noisy doo-wop of “There She Goes Again.” It’s fun. I’m not so impressed by the last three songs, but that’s okay.
Grade: A
That’s Hunx In ‘Lust For Life’
It’s fact. Hunx from Hunx and His Punx is the dude whose dick is being used as a microphone in the utterly homosexual NSFW Girls’ video for their hit song “Lust For Life” off Album.
