Three things you should know

Since my little girl was born I haven't really had the space or inclination to blog much but there are a few things that deserve attention.

First, check this video from Elucid. Dude is a beast.



Second, if you haven't gone and downloaded the 5 O'Clock Shadowboxers album, The Slow Twilight, yet then do it now. This means you Nick Gauci, you'll love it. Read a great review for it at No Trivia.


Finally, I've been listening to Kneel Knaris' Going Sane in a Crazy World on repeat for about a month now-it's an amazing album. I've been meaning to do a review but it's hard to do it justice and being a dad has slowed me down a bit. Soon.

5 O'Clock Shadowboxers - The Slow Twilight

Zilla Rocca and Douglas Martin = 5 O'Clock Shadowboxers. They've just released their album The Slow Twilight. Zilla's liner notes call it 'noir hop'. The indie-and-rock-influenced production is sort of meandering but engrossing and of course Zilla brings it with the words. Worth the dl for 'High Noon' and 'Bottomfeeders' alone but the rest is great too. Get it. Really different. Really good.


They've done a video for 'Weak Stomach'.

The most bangingest song

Ohhhhhh hell yes

Lil Jon + Requiem For A Dream Theme + Crunk + Pastor Troy = My most favourite kickass song

Outsidaz - Rah Rah

The Outsidaz have always been among my favourites. Their humour, energy, and battle mentality were everything my teenage self wanted in a group. Check the video below and hit up Noz' post of Outz videos at Cocaine Blunts.
