pipettes album art and north american release date

oct 2nd! LOVE IT! the album will be the same as the one that's already out, but with 2 new songs. stream em on up on the girls' myspace page.

kanye and chris martin collabo

everything i hear from kanye's new album is great, but this is probably my favorite single so far. is it wrong that i miss chris martin? is it wrong that i like kanye west? yeah, probably yes and yes, but shut it, dont judge me! download 'homecoming' and like it or else!

the new pinback is a big ole "meh"

let's just be honest with each other. i know it hurts. i know this album was highly anticipated. i know we all loved them in the past. but the new pinback album is not what we waited for. lyrical puns? really? ugh. and that's the LEAST of my complaints. download 'good to sea' and see what i mean.

spice girls greatest hits album cover

not to be all idolator and annoyingly obsess over album art for no reason at all, but it has to be said that the spice girls' greatest hits cover could have stood a little more effort.

grindhouse cereal box art!

Something Awful's latest photoshop contest is cereal boxes of doom and filth, a la grindhouse art. ENTER NOW!

hipster olympics!

HAHA! i like when the judge is making sure the olympians are "adequately hungover"

rilo kiley, 'silver lining video'

ZOMG! JENNAY LEFT BLAKE AT THE ALTAR AND THEN HE WALKS THE PLANK WITH HIS WEDDING OUTFIT STILL ON! HYSTERIA! DYING!

ferraby lionheart is lovely

ferraby lionheart is my new obsession. folky, weepy, and wonderful enough to melt my cold black heart for a few minutes. listen and love 'put me in your play.'

new woody allen trailer: 'cassandra's dream'

thankfully, scarlett johansson was nowhere near this project (sorry, i dont think she can act.) the even better news is, ewan macgregor and colin farrell look fantastic in it, and the film seems to have some crazy ass climax like 'match point' did. i also like the girl in it, so hopefully woody's found a new muse.


cassandra's dream

judd apatow's 'walk hard' trailer

this leaked a little while ago, but i just got around to watching it today because the 'net buzz on it wasn't that great. i have to say, 'walk hard' actually looks really funny to me. judd apatow's parody of 'walk the line' looks like it might work, especially with john c. reilly in the lead. paul rudd plays john lennon, which will probably be hilarious, and there are other notable comedy heavy hitters in tow -- matt besser, kristin wiig, a cute little monkey, etc. im excited for it now.


walk hard

i am locust! fuck to you!

a brilliant lost borat clip. note his amazing gunshot sounds.

it turns out alex trebek drunk and swearing isnt as funny as i hoped

it was kind of demoralizing. oh well! watch it anyway!

hot toddy of the day: quackers, the S*?#" eating duck!

yes!

new gay!

victor garber is SO my new number 1 gay. hugh who? i think i should get crispy hair and be his deb. he needs one.

yeah, that's right. im on the bat for lashes bandwagon too.

everyone's talking about them, and yes, i know i succumb to hype way too often (i love M.I.A. and Go! Team and i'm not apologizing for it!) but i'm pretty sure bat for lashes actually lives up to the hype. they remind me of the cocteau twins. download 'prescilla' if you want!


bat for lashes

a robotic bartender!

first of all, apologies for the lack of posts. i have been having the longest birthday ever, which still won't be over until saturday. i drink a lot, and when i'm hungover i dont check my netvibes as often as i should. ok, back to the BRAND NEW ROBOTIC BARTENDER!!!


it's called MyFountain, and for $2,275 this bitch automatically dispenses beverages! so your drunk ass doesnt have to measure shit or look up recipes. you can also set portion controls so your friend who "just drinks socially" can have that weak as hell cocktail, while you can have your glass full of jack and just a splash of coke your way. YAY!

michel gondry's 'be kind rewind' trailer FINALLY!

drooooooooooool!!! i wish my friends would dress up and re-inact robocop with me :(


be kind rewind

chemical brothers make the fishies dance!

this video for 'the salmon dance' has stolen my heart. dancing hip hop fish, beautiful sea horses and a kitty at the end. what's not to love?


chemical brothers

stedman's friendspacebook profile of doom!

like many of you, i've become obsessed with friendspacebook, the new social networking site made up exclusively of celebrity parody profiles.

while i thought i'd hit the jackpot with the nancy grace profile, whose interests include "Death. Also, murder, suicide, abductions, etc. Just an all-American gal!" i realize today that i hadn't seen true beauty until this afternoon, when i discovered the stedman profile. go there. go there now. need a tidbit? here's his about me section: "I give Oprah all her ideas. In turn, she lets me catch and eat rats. Once a week, I get a half hour of sunlight."

also:
My cell was the prototype for the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy. Oprah thought it was too hoity-toity.


HAHA!

friendspacebook

bush vs zombies!

get behind this platform. zombies will eat all our brains. trust.

sometimes visual arts students have a lot of free time to make pretty graphics. when this happens, you get a video like this. also, i wish my clothes changed as i walked too.

ryan adams, 'the sun also sets' = song of the day!

ryan adams' new album 'easy tiger' is his best one in years, more country and more bleeding heart drama than he's written in a while, and 'the sun also sets' is my favorite track on the rekkid. download it below.


ryan adams - 'the sun also sets'

skeleton key coasters for 5 dolla!

these are fun and i wannem. buy them for me or yourself or someone else at etsy.

CHANGED MY MIND! new video of the day is 'liberian girl'!!!!!!

this is amazing. every single person who was ever even remotely famous in the 80s is in this video and they all have crispy hair. WATCH IMMDEDIATELY! my favorite parts are as follows: 1) paula abdul looking adorable, 2)john travolta and olivia newton john lip-synching heartfelt michael jackson lyrics to each other on their own time, and 3) suzanne sommers showing blair underwood to bubbles the chimp. this video may be the sole reason god put me on this planet.

video of the day: 'breakdown' by mariah

because she wears a liza costume and lounges on a craps table. HOT.

cocktail of the week: brandy alexander!

im SO over highballs. in honor of the loverly feist song by the same name, i'm gorna make a pitcher of these, mindy-style, this weekend.

ingredients:
2 ounces brandy
1/2 ounce dark crème de cacao
1/2 ounce heavy cream
Whole nutmeg

preparation:
Combine brandy, crème de cacao, and heavy cream in a mixing glass with ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a 6-ounce cocktail glass and grate nutmeg over top, to taste.

song of the day: 'to the sky' by the maps

every few days a new song will stand out amongst the dozens of new songs i hear every day and stop me in my tracks. the maps' new album, 'we can create' is a gorgeous work, out on mute right now, and you should listen to it. below is the track that was good enough to tear me away from boing boing and cat macros for a whole 4 minutes. that's no small task.
the maps - 'to the sky'

cuz kimdavis revealed she knows rapcat's creator

let's revisit rapcat, cuz he spits hotter than shop boyz and rich boy combined.

hype machine error page = UPGRADE!

i dont know how long this has been in effect, but it's the first time i've seen it. while doing a routine search for tindersticks songs (that's right, tindersticks! now shut it, haterz!) i was redirected to this page:

amazing! i think it used to just time out, which is ghei ghei ghei. this is far more fashionable.

main shawty: glen hansard edition

new feature! main shawty is where i post my current celebrity hootsie. today it's glen hansard because i like the tunes that come out of his banjo and his sentimentals in 'once.' congrats, glen hansard! you my main shawty! here's a pic of him with a bike wheel HAHA!

what the eff happened to my lord and savior andrew wk???

andrew wk is one of my favorite people in the world. however, something horrible happened to him. he played the boredoms drummers event this weekend in a suburban dad costume, short hair, and absolutely no fake blood on his person. like, not anywhere. i could cry! see for yourself!


here's an old photo of him looking amazing, the way he should be!!!

'once,' cuz i actually liked it

as much as i love explosions, once was a nice contrast to the blockbusters this year, with great music and a lovely story. im not a big fan of the frames, so i was surprised by how much i loved the soundtrack, and glen hansard overall. i think he may be my new erlend (gasp!)check out one of my favorite songs from the movie below.

Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová - 'Falling Slowly'

omg! pimped library carts!

why am i blogging about this? i dont know, but it probably has something to do with secretly being a middle aged gay man who just looks like a 23 year old girl. go to unshelved to see all the hotass librarian decor!

since it's a boiling pot of water outside...

GIMME!

spiderpig!

YES!

nerd alert! entering the world of graphic novels with 'the watchmen'

i've decided to read 'the watchmen' because kate winslet, patrick wilson, jeremy irons and a bunch of other hot bitches have been cast in the movie version, and i want in! please dont stuff me in a garbage can or put cow poo in my locker kthx.

'cloverfield' (scary as shit!) update

im glad jj abrams has given me a much-needed hobby. so there's a blog called 'Ethan Haas Was Wrong' which points to a flash site called Ethan Haas Was Right. stay with me. on the flash site, there's a puzzle with a memory game. follow the pattern and a video appears with a creepy man with a very creepy message. this is followed by another flash game, with a combination that is very hard to crack, but im working on it. slashfilm has more deets.

holy shit, there are LOLhans now???

FUCKING AMAZING!!! a whole site devoted to re-purposing the joy of lolcats to calling la lohan out on her shit! god, the internet is hot. visit LOLhan immediately, or i'll send megatron after you.

new david cronenberg trailer - 'eastern promises'

im not really loving the trailer for 'eastern promises,' but i like cronenberg and i like when hot people have hot accents, and viggo is a russian badass in it so i posted this beeyotch.

Where is the proper 'Cloverfield' trailer, godDAMMit!!!

as far as i can tell, this jankass recorded-at-a-theater trailer is all there is for now. if you work at a movie theater, i implore you to steal the proper trailer, convert it, put it on youtube, and send me the link ASAP!


there IS an official 'cloverfield' site, but all it has on it is a splash page with 2 chickies crying cuz they're scared and that's not very helpful right now.

monster dare! for people with lotsa money and boring friends!

if your friends are constantly refusing your "i'll pay you 10 bucks if you go punch that biker" dares, the day is yours! monsterdare.com is a place you can post any ridiculous dare and a dollar amount for someone to do it. if other people see it and like your dare, they can contribute to the reward money. currently you can win about $200 if you take a sledge hammer to an iphone in front of a nerd. hot.

hairspray - 'you can't stop the beat' video

they changed the lyrics a bit and cut penny out of the song entirely, but it still looks fun. seeing it for the cast alone, so dont judge me, haterz!

zach galifianakis in new kanye video? GASP!

**UPDATE!** da googlz showed me this, from a mag interview he did recently:
"Strangely I’m shooting Kanye West’s new music video here at the farm. He asked me to do it. He doesn’t want to be in it, but he sent me this new song and then asked me to make a video for him here at my farm."

this could still be an elaborate hoax, but if not, OMG OMG OMG OMG O.M.GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

according to a myspace blast zach did, he's going to be in the next kanye video. this is too good to be true, so im taking this as a zany zach prank. either way, this is what he said:

"New music video from Kanye West coming soon, featuring Zach Galifianakis."

that doesnt seem to be in joke format, but what the crap do i know about comedy. either way, VIVA LA ZACH!
