I realize that I never post here anymore…

…But I had to alert you to this (from P4K):

Jens Lekman has contracted the H1N1 virus, which you might know as “swine flu”. The pop auteur, who got the virus while on tour in South America earlier this month, is recovering back home in Sweden right now.

Aaaaahahahahahahah. I really hate that guy.

Another clueless yet stupendo footage: Pretending to be Japanese Logo in Ireland


Cliffs of Moher
Irish coffee. In Ireland. Made by irish hands

Killarney. Ross Castle
Inisheer Island. stone fences

Cashel. Ancient graveyard behind the Rock of Cashel
cows

Yes.. after conquering London and Berlin, PTBJ logo put its pink and black flag on the Emerald Isle ground.
Unfortunately, I lost the logo somewhere, while moving from town to town (town? village, more likely). And so.. no pictures of the logo in Dublin (however.. they would have not been that different: pubs, food, castles and.. have I already said pubs?).
To whom may be concerned, you can find the rest of this silly footage here.

Dumbest Sell-Out Ever

For bras, Joanna Newsom? For shizz?

You should be selling Febreeze Air Effects or something with that song.

Another candle on the cake

Happy birthday to meeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Yes, the 31st of March.
I think I deserve a gift, straight from the “Best 10 singles of MY nineties” list.
I would have liked to upload “Leave them all behind” by Ride but, you know, Youtube actually removed some millions of so-called official videos (copyright, permissions, blah blah..), this one included.
However..
Here’s another favourite among favourites.
Enjoy

The Breeders - Cannonball (1993)

There’s another post, in this site, about subjects like “racism” and “Canada / Canadians”.
But this one is waaay more stupid. Read More..

From Daniel to Daniel

I love Juliana Hatfield, you know. And I heart her “Daniel” (2000 “Beautiful Creature” opening track) so much, both music and lyrics.
Almost ten years later, here’s another song titled “Daniel”, by another charming girl.
It’s the first single taken from Bat for Lashes‘ forthcoming second album, “Two suns“, out on the 6th of April.
Juliana is Juliana, a comparison makes no sense, okay.
However.. Bat for Lashes’ “Daniel” is awesome, and while waiting to get a copy of “Two suns”, go and listen to kaleidoscopically fabulous “Fur and gold”!! Go! Now!!!

No parachute required: introducing Pacific UV

A friend of mine, Andrea (a musical genius, believe me), recently posted a video among the comments in my Myspace page.
It’s “Static Waves” by Pacific UV, a band from Athens, Georgia (now residing in Portland) I’ve never heard of before.
Sort of.. brit shoegaze (Slowdive) meets (stoned and relaxed) Spiritualized meets Cocteau Twins and.. everything that’s dreamy, enveloping, and similar to landing on Earth in slow-motion from a mile high on a sunshiny day.
The song is taken from Read More..
