FACT:
This Paul Banks solo album came from left field.
I felt like posting the new video for the single Games for Days and just throw out there that I really dig Interpol. If I was not that crazy about this Julian Plenti album I wouldn't hate. But, it is actually a great album and I am really hoping to see some tour dates for it soon. Very interesting and possibly exciting....

Ready For The Weekend
FACT:
New Calvin Harris album dropped today.
I like it, its really funky and different from his first album. The man created disco for fucks sake. No matter how this record compares to the first all around, I got a lot of love for Calvin Harris. I saw him at Coachella two years ago and it was one of the best, surprising sets I have ever seen.
The Rain (Real Jazzy, kudos Calvin)

Monotone Management Sucks
FACT:
Monotone Management sucks. They can't even come through a seasonal show with a terrible line up (Hardfest.) The show that was at the Forum this past Saturday got shut down by 10pm. Here is the statement made on hardfest.com;
LOS ANGELES -- August 9th, 2009
We were required to shut down Hard Summer at The Forum last night by the Los Angeles County Fire Department. They declared the event a "hazard" after seeing concertgoers jumping from the balcony to the floor, along with numerous other potentially dangerous activities. The Inglewood Police Department backed the decision of the Fire Department and assisted in the clearance of the venue.
While we, the promoters, worked with the authorities to consider other options to continue the concert, ultimately they made the decision based on the safety of the concertgoers. We are happy to report that there were no major injuries.
So, a lineup that was already weak is now being pushed back till when? Like over fall or winter when there other lame ass events are scheduled? Monotone Management sucks. Trying to throw raves in 2009 aint working. Get an outdoor venue, idiots. And good luck making money out of this mistake you suckers.

Charles Krafft
FACT:
Old porcelain kitchenware is nostalgic to me. It reminds me of a simpler time. A combination of that and sarcastic good art. Who could ask for more?

Crazy 4 Cult:3D
FACT:
I love detailed art and Cult films. There is an annual exhibit and art sale here in Los Angeles dedicated to cult movies from the past twenty some odd years. I picked a few of my favorites to display here, but there are hundreds of amazing pieces (and a few that are not so amazing.)
Crazy 4 Cult 3d is going down July 16th - August 8th (closed on Mondays)

We Were Promised Jetpacks
FACT:
I rarely discover bands on my own. Im old, and by contrary belief I am not nearly as hip as many people think I may be. I came across the name We Were Promised Jetpacks and I stereotyped their young look and name as a definite pop-suck-rock band...but I was mistaken.
From Glasgow, this band really is something else. I dig the generic indie sound, which is existent in many of their tracks, but they do it very well. So well, that I have to say I like every song on the album. Sometimes the vocals/accent is so thick that it's almost too much, but that's what is kind of different. With that,I have to see them at the Knitting Factory in September or butts will get cut. For real though, James left his knife over after the 4th.
Quiet Little Voices -hott track
Conductor - slow jam, for the ladies
