If you haven’t heard, Conan’s new show, “Conan” premieres on TBS tonight at 10:00 Central Time. Next Media Animation in Taiwan did a digital animation about it. However, their portrayal of Conan’s character, The Masturbating Bear, might have gotten a little lost in translation. Don’t worry, there are subtitles.

Some people use their time on the jumbotron to wave to the camera. Some people use their time to kiss their significant other. Jeremy Fry, though, used his time to become a Youtube sensation. What an opportunist.

So… if you weren’t at Terror at the Mall last night at Grand Avenue, you missed these guys “totally shut that bitch down” (quoted from their tweet). Anyway, that’s exactly what they did, and to top it off they dropped their first web tape today. TCS is doing three web tapes before the end of the year: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and

I don’t like Wocka Flocka Flame. This is his song “Hard In Da Paint”: However, there’s this parody. I give you Baracka Flacka Flame’s “Head of the State”: Don’t say the n-word.
Read moreSpin 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
Read moreCatchy ass dance music. Plain and Simple. I just reviewed their demo for Marquette Radio, and I’m hooked now. 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. There’s a pretty obvious 80’s dance influence, but

Quick Weekend Recap: I saw Henry Rollins speak at UWM Friday night, and it was nothing short of amazing. Henry’s been doing spoken word since his days in Black Flag, and has figured out the formula to captivate an audience. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a video from his UWM appearance, but this is earlier on his spoken

My friend Tom sent me this video yesterday. This is Lissie. She’s from Rock Island, Illinois. She does an awesome cover. I actually like the cover better than the original version. Whenever someone can do that, that’s something special. At least for them. You can check out Lissie at her official website by clicking here.

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
