Oh and just to combat the previous post about the swagger wagon….Valient Thorr.
I know its not the ‘rap music’ that the kids are listening to, its old school progressive retro thrash.
PS of note, Valient truly has one of the greatest beards currently being grown in rock music.

Enjoy this…

There are three things rotting minds of our youth and weakening the resolve of our allies, reality television, hacky-sacks, and the rap music. What happened to the conviction of rock-n-roll? Therefore, this week’s music video features the quintessential element of rock, leather vests, handle-bars moustaches and blowing people away (with your music), something Justin can relate too. Take my advice, remove you’re sock before watching the video because they’re going to get blown off anyways (TWSS).

this too shall pass?

MVOTW: New Jack Johnson

Add this song to your summer mix tape…Love him or hate him, Jack’s going to be the soundtrack to your summer. You know you’ll be able to spot Kegan jogging topless on the bike path from his trailer to the coffee shop while he pumps this album on his walkman. Oh and how can you complain when you get a surf video to accompany such a catchy song?

J-Dub, Scratching the Surface

Oh cool, we only have to wait until Fall 2010 to see it….bummer. This movie looks so ridiculously good, and judging from the teaser song, it should have you mesmerized by the tv while you do the Kegan Pepper Smith, Drink-in-the-hand-hussle-n’-shuffle all over the dance floor. Now if only Kelly Slater’s “Ultimate Wave Tahiti in 3D” at Imax would hurry up and come to Victoria we would have some thing to tide us over.

The best band you don’t listen to. Rolling Stone’s top 50 bands you need to see live. Pretty much incredible.
