FILMZ. VOLUME 2.



THUMBS UP.

If you haven't checked out the VICE TV site yet you really, really need to. Its chock full of funny, shitty shows about nothing. This show is the cream of the crop, and coincidentally the shittiest. It features Dave and Harry, the (self professed) "two worst Koreans to ever", hitchhiking from Los Angeles to Miami. Hillar-ious. The thing that really strikes me about this show is not the gambling misadventures, train hopping, intense racial issues, or  Dave and Harry constantly describing themselves as "chinamen", but just the fact that it is still possible to hitch across the United States. In the breaks in the show from the funny parts you get bits and pieces of the enormity this genuine American adventure.  I don't know, its really great. Go watch it. And if you don't like it theres this show Shot by Kern all about a porn photographer, you fucking pervert.

SOME GREAT MUSICS VOLUME #11.



BOWERBIRDS.

I really like these dogs. They're the first good band that I know of from Raleigh, NC which I can't see being a haven of culture and music. They're lead by an accordion and have vocals and lyrics with a great amount of syncopation, which gives them a really super lo-fi jazzy sound. The lyrics are all about the environment which sounds like a drag on paper but it isn't preachy or any crap like that.  Give them a listen they're really great.  Most of their EP is on their myspace.

SOME GREAT MUSICS VOLUME #10.

 SHOCKING PINKS
.

THIS band is mega sick. New Zealand band on DFA. They have some pretty good ideas.  The hit song they have is called Emily and its really catchy. The bass is really great and their sound bounces back and forth from noise-style drum and bass and catchy as hell synthpop. I like them they're super.
