Wreck The Tape Deck

yep. De La Soul 3 Feet High and Rising shoes. amazing.

hey, hipster swine, the only thing the eighties was good for was hip-hop, so remember that next time you’re getting all dressed up in your neon tights. De La Soul’s 3 Feet High and Rising used to be something amazing and new, and even if it didn’t end up changing the world, it shure changed mine… it turns out that the release is a phat twenty years old now, so happy belated birthday and much respect. (man, i really miss sampling. way to ruin everything recording industry. you are the destroyers of all that is good.)

there hasn’t been this much buzz about a band since Crystal Castles (fuck Wavves, they don’t count). your next favorite band Cold Cave is hitting the West Coast tonight (tickets here) with a show at the Center For The Arts in Eagle Rock. it’s only ten bucks (eight in advance), and they’re giving away hand made mix tapes to the first hundred kids (yes, tapes are apparently cool again. god it just never stops does it hipster swine?) local heroes Abe Vigoda and Former Ghost are opening. tomorrow night they’re hitting the Casbah in San Diego (tickets here) if you feel like a road trip, and then they’re back in L.A. on Sunday at the Echo for Part Time Punks. Nite Jewel opens (tickets here). i’m guessing that all of the above will sell out, so get your tickets in advance, suckas. for reals.

i’ve decided that i need to start making stuff that’s this cool instead of just talking about other people doing it. inspiring short animation from director Bruno B. Dicolla, who has a hipster swine-tastic little website here. speaking of hipster swine, he also made a fun little Wavves video for To The Dregs, which you can find after the jump.

Jesus Lizard – Panic In Cicero

old-school punk bands from Chicago equals awesome. the unstoppable force of Jesus Lizard singer David Yow were legendary in my hometown, ao don’t waste this chance to see them since they broke up a while ago because they were old and not making any money until that Touch and Go anniversary show got ‘em back together but who knows for how long? hitting the Henry Fonda tonight.

hey hipster swine, this one is for you! Space 15 Twenty begins their Sunday flea market series this weekend. now you can buy clothes on the cheap(er) that look like they came from a thrift store, but you don’t actually have to deal with a gross-ass Goodwill store. plus, this is LA, so even the flea markets are overpriced, and that way you maintain your priveledged white kid cred.
there are live turntables, the event goes off from 11-4 on Cahuenga just above Sunset, and there will be another day in the series every third Sunday of the month. work it, LA, work it…

Passion Pits – Sleepyhead

Passion Pit sold out a grip of shows here in Los Angeles a while back, so they’re going to grace us with their presence once more with a show tonight at the Henry Fonda. i like them, actually. everyone does. they’re just soooooooo popular. big fcuking whoop, Passion Pit. oooh, so everyone’s your friend? so everyone likes you? well you’ll get yours, Passion Pit. i didn’t want to be your friend, anyway.

ha, i love internet searches. turns out there is a Loverboy song named 'Passion Pit', and i'm guessing that's what they're named after. well played, Passion Pit. well played.

Sunny Day Real Estate – One

reunited and it feels so fine. i guess that Foo Fighters thing never really worked out, as Sunny Day Real Estate is playing the Henry Fonda / Music Box tonight with all original members. has anyone told Dave Grohl? boy, his bands just never seem to find any success… this is a three thumbs up, highly recommended show from jesus satan. see you there.

once again Dance Right at La Cita (336 South Hill St) is getting a shout out for their killer flyers. no idea who the Cosmic Kids are, and this video looks like they were involved in the worst hipster swine party ever, but all that matters is that there is free entry, cheap hipster beer and a nearby redline stop, anyway.

Matt and Kim – No More Long Years (Radioclit Remix)

Matt and Kim – It’s A Fact (Printed Stained) (Mano Remix Feat. Hollywood Holt)

tonight über-cute pop sensation Matt and Kim are playing the El Rey. i can’t help but wonder how much of the rather amazing video (below) for Lessons Learned is staged and how much is real. don’t know too many cops that let two naked people and a camera crew get away. seems more like a Benny Hill episode than NYC’s finest, but it’s a great video nonetheless.

Santogold – I’m A Lady (Diplo Mix Ft Amanda Blank)

randomly, miss sweet thang herself Amanda Blank goes on first. should be a good show all around, even if Blank is a total mismatch as an opener.

oh no, Miss Blank, it is I who love YOU...
