Take back what you said about Thor!

I'm going to be honest and say that when Marvel first announced it's future movie plans, releasing features leading up to Avengers at the end of Iron Man, Thor was probably the film i was least anticipating. I've been a comic nerd for a long time, and for me it was always Spiderman, Hulk, X-Men, or Batman. I always kind of sided with Brad from "Adventures in Babysitting," and agreed that Thor was a homo.

That being said, throw in some Oscar winners, and Shakespearean director, and some pretty groovy-effects, i guess i'm down with some Thor, even if it is just another segue to next summer's blockbuster. So, i'm sold now Marvel. I'll take back what i said about Thor.

Well...Thor is kind of a homo, but that's okay...i can dig it.

Why? on Daytrotter

Go over to Daytrotter and check out a session from one of my favorite groups ever, Why? It's the cat's meow!

Should Have Been Dead on A Sunday Morning

This just made me laugh. Keeping in the tradition of fucked up versions of bland pop/rock songs, the good people at Olde English Spelling Bee have gifted us all a Creed tribute album. Is it necessary? No. Will you ever listen to these songs again? Probably not. But, they're all infinitely more listenable than the original schlock. Download as a zip file here. So, enjoy some bizarro covers of Florida's finest...or you can just listen to Scott Stapp's "Marlins Will Soar" song over and over again. It is baseball season after all.

Destruction Unit

Ryan Rousseau, aka Ryan Wong of The Wongs, The Reatards, etc. has unleashed a droney, psychedelic space opera upon the masses of the universe. This is really drug-fueled, cosmic, stellar-overdrive type stuff, and to answer the question looming on everyone's frontal lobe, it's freaking awesome. Get it from Volar Records and sample the whole damn thing below. Try not to grind your teeth too much.

Salem - Till The World Ends

Here's a weird little video from Salem. First up is some grainy footage of some strippers and then a bunch of night vision war footage. Awesome? I don't know. Maybe. Any rate, the song's pretty cool, and i love Salem, so watch it below.

And yes, this a reworking of a Britney Spears song. Busted!

Arcade Fire pics

The Arcade Fire show was pretty damn good last night. The weather was perfect (sunny and 70), the beer was flowing, and i only had to call one guy a motherfucker. Here's some pics:
