This song has been stuck in my head for a week straight


Sooooooo, that means it must kick ass...

Hot Chip - Ready for the Floor (Soulwax Dub)

Prince covers Radiohead at Coachella


Last weekend, at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio, CA, Prince was paid over $4,000,000 for his performance. He may have earned that money just with this one song. Prince does a pretty jaw-droppingly awesome cover of Radiohead's "creep" where he changes the lyrics around a lot and absolutely shreds it on guitar. I think this is an awesome cover and I would have really like to seen this performance. But, on a brighter note, I am seeing Radiohead twice next weekend so maybe I'll get to see the real version of this song ripped to shreds...

Ghostland Observatory


This album I have slept on. I remember hearing a couple of these songs a good while back and meant to get this album but never actually got around to it. I finally got a hold of the album and gave it a listen to it the whole way through. I really like this band and the gritty electro rock feel that this album has. This is truly the direction rock music is going in order to stay fresh and innovative. These guys are playing at Bonnaroo this year and they are on my list of "must see" shows. Here is their album:
