Two singles you need:



One slow jam, one weird jam, one party jam. Opening slow jam "Lap Dog" is the jam of jams, a grinder with R&B snares popping all over the place as pianos vamp and Dog Dick future croons/falsetto raps over the top. I want a t-shirt that says "I'm a fiend for Dog Dick!"

*White Vinyl 7"*

Check out this vid of Dog Dick @ Whartscape last year, includes "Grease That I Got" at about the 8 min mark:






"Tonight I am riding the Vomit Wave!"

"New Swamp" is a the new track, a real oozer of a beast of a monster. "Vomit Wave" finally gets release on the b-side, as well as a re-do of "Shadowsss", a song originally released on the I live Like This Cuz I Like It full length.

*Green Vinyl 7"*

Both on Holy Holy Holy Records.

Also, go check out the new Sewn Leather track "Cream of the Crap" plus a bunch of other newish trax too @ myspace.com/sewnleather.

WHAT? If you wanted a good looking flyer you should have made it yourself.

BIG FUN 4EVER comes out of its food coma long enough to squeeze out their first live show since winter.

SEWN LEATHER returns with tourmate DJ DOG DICK. MAYHEM WILL ENSUE. ENUFF SAID.

+ ANDY PETR's live debut. His growing arsenal of awesome trax were recently spotlighted on some blog called Fan Belt. Here's one of my favs, "New Pearl Necklace":

... but dude has made like a dozen trax since this so go peep some of the newer jamz.

TOP 10-ish OF THE SUMMER 2008

(besides Extreme Animals CD and tour, Terrior Bute recording a new CD, Juiceboxxx's next 7" and the Big Fun tour and 7"...)

1. Yung L.A. "We Fly Futuristic"

"I'm so futuristic I won't even brush my hair." I've been living in the future for 24 years. Gnarly.
YUNGLELAND MYSPACE

2. Sex Vid live @ Garfield House. Not quite as crazy as this:

But still satisfying.

3. Cave's Hunt Like Devil / Jamz 12" on Permanent Records. Saw them a while back at Rollin' Hatin' / Version fest in Chicago, and their double EP is some of sickest psych in a minute and has been on heavy, heavy rotation on my turntable. And their myspace is great to look at while on the pot: SEE? They're on tour with the great SkareKrau Radio now too.

4. TP4: THE ANTICIPATION BUILDS

+ Hair Braider (Embedding Disabled)
Summer wouldn't be summer if you weren't excited about a new R. Kelly record coming out. I'm still waiting for the summer remix to drop.

5. Total Abuse tour CD (this better get a vinyl press) and live in Milwaukee. Always sweet: TOTAL ABUSE

6. The "Arch In Yo Back"


7. Cam'ron "My Aura"

"This is that 'I don't give a fuck' music."

8. THE USAISAMONSTER: 3 NEW TRACKS FROM THE UPCOMING "SPACE PROGRAMS" LP

9. Basically anything Collipark or Soulja Boy do at this point. Fuck it.


10. Line of the Summer 2008 goes to Sewn Leather: "When I smoke weed, the weed smokes Me." It's the smoke of the punk, man.

WORST MOMENT OF THE YEAR: READING THIS
