Freeball Friday! Shake ‘Em Dry!
Justice – “Civilization” Justice – Civilization by justice I was just thinking to myself “meh, Justice videos don’t really do it for me anymore”; but really? Are we (am I?) so jaded? What the fuck would I have thought 10 years ago? Jesus, I hate myself. Architecture in Helsinki –...

Tyler The Creator – Goblin
Amidst hype and controversy, the much anticipated release of Goblin has been bestowed upon the world like the latest hipster accessory or more simply, a bad joke, or a good-bad joke. Or an exploration into the…Shit, I took the bait. The bait, of course, being the ridiculous dissection and speculation...

Joan of Arc – Life Like
Ugh. I saw Joan of Arc once, sometime in the late nineties. They opened for Chan Marshall and Girls Against Boys and played what I could only refer to as anti-show. I don’t know if it was their sole intent to alienate anyone foolish enough to catch the first name...
