The Sprites

The band is Sprites, and they have just brought me great joy with a song called "George Romero" about how the zombified end of the world would be no big deal, since they've "learned everything from George Romero, Dario Argento, maybe Tom Savini, Stuart Gordon and Sam Raimi." Ah, it brings me joy.

In a Field Where Barley Grows
Posted on 03.26.06 by Widge @ 3:56 am

Pink Floyd's pseudo-video for "Scarecrow." Less strange than the last vintage Pink Floyd video we pointed you to, but only in that it's the guys walking around in a field and then there's some war game thing and...oh hell, no, it doesn't seem to mean anything. It's just Floyd. So be it.

Happy Birthday Nina Simone

Screenhead is celebrating the day by posting this great Aardman-created video for "My Baby Just Cares For Me". Never before has clay been so soulful.

Update: Screenhead as we knew it is no more, so here's the thing embedded for your pleasure.

Sampling Vinyl Slag

melted vinyl samples

Brian Joseph Davis took ten albums by artists who have, at some point in their career, been banned. Then he lit the albums on fire. Then he sampled whatever was playable after the fact.

I've learned from this that I should have held onto that single I had of Drunks With Guns covering "Jesus Christ Superstar" even after it got melted in my car that summer. B-Naut could have used it, apparently. C'est la guerre.

Found at WFMU's Beware of the Blog by way of Screenhead.

We'll never find, as long as we live, someone who can sing his ass off quite like you, sir. Rest well.
