Spin Magazine released this free tribute mixtape to honor Bad Religion, as well as 30 years of the Epitaph Record label. The mixtape features artists like Guttermouth, Cobra Skulls, and The Riverboat Gamblers covering Bad Religion classics. Nobody dared touch “Fuck Armageddon, This Is Hell” though (my favorite Bad Religion song). This thing is a trip, though. In addition to

There’s six songs on the demo, all very radio friendly, and I’d be more than willing to bet you get a chorus stuck in your head for a while after listening to it.

Here’s the backstory: I am a huge Ramones fan. They’re the greatest punk band, and the original punk band, despite what my co-host, Steve (@Tellemsteve) tries to tell me. (The Sex Pistols? really?)

If you don’t know this dude, you should. (see Gerald Walker / Dose Of Dopeness links on the side). This is his latest promo track, “Nah Baby, There’s A Reason Why I Left Your Ass”, based off the Marsha Ambrosius track “I Hope She Cheats On You (With A Basketball Player)”
Read moreI’m currently downloading this as we speak. To give you the quick rundown on this, it’s a mash-up of Coldplay and Jay-Z, not unlike The Grey Album, which featured Dangermouse mixing The Beatles’ White Album and Jay’s Black Album, or the mash-up album from Linkin Park and Jay-Z, “Collision Course”. The mixtape features 20 songs from different producers including 9th

I hope, some day, these go down in some sort of historical record. If you were ever wondering what is going on in Kanye West’s head at times, fear not. These are actual tweets from Kanye. High school seniors should be considering the following to be their senior quotes: “It was always sucky when my parents chaperoned me on field

So, this band is partially responsible for this blog being created, and they don’t even know it. I was on my way to see these guys today in Madison, but my car broke down in Delafield, which brought me back home, where I ultimately started making this blog. So, I feel like it’s fitting that I talk briefly about these
