Unders

Cherry Red put out this song by the Hollywood Brats on a 7″ in 1979, but I think it predates that by some time. It is one of Phil Spector’s jawns covered by some New York UK Dolls. These dudes got beat up at their own shows. Bummer.

Bicycle to (Not Safe For) Work Day

Jackmaster Dick’s Revenge put out a few Chicago House tracks in the mid eighties. The one I picked up today features a duo of filthy mouthed lovers reporting lewd narratives and instruction. Salacious in the eyes of Tipper but fantastic in the crossed eyes of the grease-can Wally Champ runner-ups. “Sensuous Woman Goes Disco” [...]

They See Me Pollin’

Woah..this post title sounds kinda dirty. I guess that is appropriate, considering the first ridemypwny poll is “Most Freakiest”. All this presidential bullshit got us in a votin’ mood…so we’re doing the ‘poll’ thing. Yeah..it is kind of internet circa 1997 to do a poll..but whatever. Cocaine Blunts has one, why can’t we? So..if [...]

This pretty much sums up the last 5 days.

Current Events

In California, the state Supreme Court approved same sex nuptials today. What’s next? Are we going to let aliens marry polar bears?!? I hope so. In commemoration of this historic day I am posting the song “Boy” by Book of Love. It isn’t about marriage, but it is about not getting into the gay bar. [...]

Youtube Round-up

Here are a few assorted videos I’ve recently come across.
Black Sabbath - NIB live. 1970. Super badass. Ozzy is a weird/creepy motherfucker.

Judge Dread - Big Six. This is a goofy one. According to wikipedia, this dude has the most banned songs of all times (Guinness book of world records), he was the first white dude [...]

Somehow I have pulled my head out of a deep dark hole where the only things inside are Mario Kart Wii, Portishead’s Third, and 5-Hour Energy drinks, albeit just briefly enough to hear one thing so new and good that I had to share it with you. From two Belgian DJs (kicking off their [...]

Reggae is Dub

I thought I knew my taste pretty well. This was going to be the summer of G-Funk (thanks to Elias), but today early 90’s raggamuffin hip hop came out of nowhere to woo me. Time may prove me wrong, but I am posting these Jamalski songs while the feeling is fresh. The A-side, Jump, Spread [...]

Moody

Recently I heard the Famlay song “Beeper” on KMEL. Weird right? That song came out eons ago and got no radio play. It was picked up by a purebred British-bloghauser*. The remixed song made the rounds in European clubs where the t-shirt sweat stains grow to match their bold torso-sized fonts. Then it appeared on [...]

Let Me Freak Your Denim

On Furday all the minky dudes and leopard leotardettes prowl the sweaty darkness of the jungle. They swing from leather vines, dully lit by frantic electron clouds, in mutual envy. Twilight 22 drafts the tones of this habitat in “Electric Kingdom.” It is 1983 electro with lyrical hints of the previous year’s “The Message” but [...]
