Raconteurs: The New Cream?

September 10, 2006

Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. Another NME-esque hyperbolic comparison of a legendary band with a new one that is simply not worthy. (Cue eye-rolls)
Well, I just finished downloading the Raconteurs’ Lollapalooza set and I was blown the fuck away. It was amazing, but it also struck me, they remind me of Cream. (You know, [...]

Outkast – Idlewild Blues (Don’t Chu Worry ‘Bout Me)

Outkast feat. Scar [...]

What do you guys think? Would I make a good Nick Zinner? The guy with the guitar, with the wacky hair and all?
Could’ve got Reg to be Brian Chase (drummer) and, I dunno, Amanda to be Karen O.

I suspect trouble in Stankonia

July 25, 2006

Either Big Boi is in denial or he’s all out of ideas about what to rap about.

Rolling Stones’ concert at Altamont, Andy Warhol’s studio & the Velvet Underground, The Clash, Bob Marley and the Wailers, David Bowie….
Plus Dennis Hopper, yo. Awesome.
I love Gnarls Barkley.
