‘Carpet Crawlers’ by Mark Kozelek
Mark Kozelek + classic Genesis cover = instant reblog

‘Bulerias’ by Carmen
I know that prog-rock and flamenco music really have no business being combined in any fashion, but somehow it makes me very happy that these guys tried it anyway.

‘Gun’ by John Cale
I like how when you combine John Cale and Phil Manzanera it sounds exactly like Velvet Underground playing a Roxy Music song.

‘Hiccup’ by Buke and Gase is my new jam.

SLIDESHOW: Ten Giant Cocks

pitchfork:

Ten years after their debut album— as well as their tragic end— Matt LeMay remembers power-pop band the Exploding Hearts in our latest feature story.

The Toys - A Lover’s Concerto

My roommate makes funny and educational videos with chalk illustrations and you should watch all of them.

“I believe that if, at the end, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn’t always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.”

Ebert

My god, I will miss this man terribly.
