  • That Black Lips video is a good idea- reminds me of the old Devo, Wall of Voodoo, and Don’t Kill Cyotes vids…the post of this group was initially suspect however as they play this music as Urban Outfitters. I like ’em though- Georgia rule(d).

  • Veni Vidi Vici = the Fleshtones circa Hexbreaker.

  • Listening to Jay Reatard’s “Blood Visions” album. It reminds me of Buzzcocks and early Wire.
