BEST FRIENDS FOREVER
best friends forever are a band from MN who has a following in worcester. they're local favorites that aren't even local!

BLISTER PACK
A wotown punk band frequently seen on the bill with WHITE CRIME and OPPOSITES DAY, great proponents of the rock

OPPOSITES DAY
10 yr old kids playing music with their respective moms. Really.

WHITE CRIME
The odd man out in the worcester hardcore scene. The underdog of the underdogs. Basically they rule.

new track by BLK JKS of south africa

BLK JKS (say it: black jacks. black jacks) of s. africa combine sweet african guitarwork/horns/chanting with rippin' psychadelic guitarwork. sounds like a winning combination in my book. and they sing in some other language that i do not understand! wait for the middle part, so sick

This weekend was aweeesome and its not over

The weekend gave us some incredibly fun happenings, such as Obscene Haircut Day at the Fuck Yeah Center on Pleasant St, shows at the Go Go and Forbes St, and all around summer fun out on the streets. But the weekend's pretty much still going because there are shows on Tuesday and Wednesday too!

Tuesday at Ralph's is the ROWDY ONES and MIKA MIKO and
Wednesday at the Firehouse JACOB BERENDES is going to be playing with a myriad of guests including MATT FOX and GHOST MICE and HEATHERS (see flyer)

Anyone who saw him perform as JACOB AND THE DUNGEONEER with the Dungeoneers (featuring members of Bonezone and the Terribles) at the Collective a Go Go the other night should be fucking psyched for this show! Speaking of the Dungeoneers (check out this sweet video), they put on an amazing punk show featuring flying drums and medieval death wrestling! Jamie and Mike's Guitar and Bass ONSLAUGHT was so freakin' tight that it sounded like an octave pedal! Can't wait to hear the Terribles/Bonezone Split 7", which Matt of Bonezone assures is on the way soon!

Also in the works is the new Strizhi Demo due at the end of the summer, they're a sweet Worcester postpunk band with a tendency to play in wild time signatures! They have a practice space in the same building as me so I can personally attest to their greatness, check out that link!

cant wait

FARM LEAKED!

DINOSAUR JR FARM 200009. YES.

The Rowdy Ones and Mika Miko at Ralph's on June 16

We told you about Mika Miko's new album back when it leaked and now they're playing in Worcester! Not only that, but they're playing with wotown favs the ROWDY ONES, fronted by Pat Scully of Tasty Skateboards! The Rowdy Ones recently got back from their North American Tour, and Mika Miko (of LA) is currently on their own. SWEEEET. Punk Rock Tuesday the 16th! Now if only I was 21... scroll for vidz

TWO SHOWS FRIDAY

One of the last shows at the Firehouse on eastern ave off of belmont st is on friday the 22nd. Bands playing are: Bird Names, Quiet Hoves, Prince Rama of Ayodhya, and White Crime. Yes that's right, White Crime (Faux Pas Records), the brainchild of Sam Gas Can and John Guida, the premiere punks from under the underground, are playing in Worcester this weekend! check it out.

In other shows, the very last show at the Meathouse on 33 oberlin st (1st floor) is on friday as well. Some of the coolest Worcester Haaaadcoore bands are playing, namely Short Ride (check out their lyrix), the always memorable Antietam, They Live and Tinnitus. The Meathouse is a sweet basement venue and the Firehouse is a huge former firehouse, both amazing diy venues with very few rules that you won't get many (or any) chances to see shows at again, so check out one or both of these awesome shows!

Rock YR Wednesday Night With Opposites Day

The child above is the lead singer of the Worcester band Opposites Day, who are playing tonight at 8:08pm at Distant Castle on Forbes St, with WHAT IF??? of Chattanooga and Blister Pack. Show is free, gas isn't so think about throwing some bucks in the bucket for the traveling band.

Animal Collective On Letterman Last Night, Video Speaks For Itself:

Old School Vid

makes me thing of when i went to college

New Ponytail Video

I heard about these guys from my friend Leah who goes to school with them at MICA in Baltimore, MD. She said they started this band for a school project and just rolled with it. Anyway since they've started they've garnered a lot of buzz and their second LP Ice Cream Spiritual came out about a year ago. Their sound is hectic; two guitars playing wild leads constantly, no bass player, a tight-ass drummer, all capped off bouncy epileptic raw energy of lead singer Molly Siegel's shrieks and wails. She's not your typical singer to say the least. While offputting to some, I really like them and consider them one of my fav new bands, can't wait to hear what they put out next! Here's their new video for "Celebrate The Body Electric (It Came From An Angel)"

Joe Bastardo's Art

You should click on these photos because it makes them full screen. Which is really essential.

Some good old Anti Establishment art from Joe Bastardo of Worcester, MA for your Wednesday morning, with bonus commentary by yours truly.

Greyhound is a big part of Modern America, such a strange way to travel. You're sharing a bus with all sorts of runaways and ex-cons and assorted nuts. A few months ago I took a 25 hour Greyhound from Ft Pierce, FL to Baltimore, MD. There was this crazy lady with many bags who attempted to steal the seat of a young mother and her child as we boarded after a pit stop. Everyone on the bus sided with the mother and child. The crazy lady got mad and called the mother ugly and then spit on a man who was protesting her actions. She got kicked off the bus. It was like we were in high school or something. Then there was this crackhead from Springfield, MA (figures) who was asking everyone for drugs the whole time and making fun of a young black man known only as "Crazy Eyes" due to his lazy eye. At first I felt bad for Crazy Eyes, but as we drove through Washington, DC he got in a sociology debate with some of the other passengers and attempted to back up every point he made with an arbitrary (and often fabricated) statistic. By the end of the ride, which I spent reading the entirety of Catcher In The Rye, I lost sympathy for all of my fellow passengers. Riding Greyhound is strange.

RICK ROSS WEARS SUNGLASSES DURING SEX

"I've had sex in my shades, sometimes I wear my clear ones. A lot of ladies compliment my eyelashes so I don't want people to see them, I'm shy, so wear my shades all the time. I never told nobody that before." entire article about his sunglasses here
He got a lot of shit for having worked as a correction officer. WHATEVER THE MAN'S GOT TO MAKE HIS PAPER. Just because his life story is a little exaggerated doesn't mean he can't put out a cool record. Yeah I said it 50. #1 in the country, got praise from Kanye, and Pitchfork still hasn't reviewed it yet. Look I'm not saying it's no classic but it can't do you any harm to check out Deeper Than Rap by Rick Ross. He's got style.

rockin that thang!

When i heard the original rockin' that thang/shit on 94.5 I fell in love. You just can't say no to those synths. This remix has some high profile guests, including Rick Ross rapping about the president and a surprisingly lyrical last verse by Luda ("let me dive in yr heart and swim around in yr soul"), check it out! Don't diss on mainstream hip-hop, its got a good thing going! The Dream's new album is worth checking out too.

cameo

Thanks to Jacob and the Distant Castle kids for introducing me to CAMEO!
They showed some 80s videos of these guys before the show started the other day in which the lead singer sometimes wears a codpiece as seen above. I did a little research and found one of their 70s videos called "Shake Your Pants." I noticed that in the beginning there's a guitar line and a synth line that the Beastie Boys sample in their hit "Hey Ladies!" from the classic 1989 record Paul's Boutique, the record that pretty much invented the whole sample-heavy mashup rap thing. It's one of the best records of the last 20 years. And that's coming from someone who doesn't even like the beasties that much. Oh and here's that Cameo video:
Paul's Boutique, the album that kind of invented the heavy sampling mashup thing. Trust me, I don't even really like the beasties but that record is one of the best records of the last 20 yearsssss. Oh and here's that cameo song:

Charles Hamilton is ill

Charles Hamilton is a 21 year old rapper from Harlem. His favorite video game character is Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic the Hamilton is a concept mixtape about waking up as Sonic the Hedgehog in the real world.

Hamilton told MTV: “I’m not crazy... Basically, Sonic means sound. Hedgehogs bury themselves in the ground. I’m Sonic the Hedgehog, because I bury myself in the sound.”

He makes some sweet beats out of samples from StH soundtrack songs. He also used to be a heroin addict (cred)

I wouldn't post this much if it wasn't all really really good.

For a quick awesome listen check out this song "WAY COOL" where samples the theme song from Clarissa Explains it All.

His debut album This Perfect Life drops June 23.

new dinojr song

Dinosaur Jr. is the sickest band there is. They have a new record label, jagjaguwar. Also they have a new album coming out in June called Farm. Until it leaks this is what we've got:
this is their newest song: I Want You To Know
this song has been out for a lil bit but its still sick:

Duck WOW

Duck Yao is an amazing home-run (home run?) vegetarian Chinese restaurant in Worcester open every Friday and Saturday! I just went there and it was amazing. We got (fake) duck and chicken and pork and fish and some appetizers. So good.

directions to 148 Beaver Brook Parkway: on Park Ave headed towards Webster Square take a right onto Maywood St after the Wendy's restaurant on your right. Then, take your first left onto Beaver Brook parkway. The house is on your right at the corner of Beaver Brook Pkwy and Spaulding St., a white house with a chain link fence.
