Now all we need from Tom is a reissue of Charalambides' Market Square.
In Praise Of The Dead C
The Dead C's 1992 masterwork Harsh 70s Reality was finally re-released on vinyl a few weeks ago in its full, intended form (two songs, "Shark" and "T. Is Never Over I & II" were removed when the double LP was released on CD due to space limitations), and upon revisiting the album, which has been ...
Don't diss Minnie, you jerk! Also, wrong era.
Ladies and gentlemen, the worst song of 2012 and maybe the decade....
It's not like The Offspring were ever a good band or that we should expect much from these dorks, but man, is their new single "Cruising California (Bumpin' In My Trunk)" somethin' else.

I had fun at No Fun ever year, so it's really all in the eye, or ear, of the beholder.
In Praise Of Burmese
I recently sang the praises of San Francisco's Burmese's grinding, ugly Lun Yurn album on this blog, but the band's continually underrated status in spite of their near 14-year existence means the call is out for some further celebration (the band's Facebook page includes an exhaustive history o...
I concur. Jon is the fuckin' man!
SSPS: Video Threat
Thinking about bests of 2011, call me old fashioned but I still enjoy this piece from 2010.
