As of late, it seems we have been dining on a regular diet of bands with French roots: Prototypes, Yelle, Stereo Total and Stereolab. As an addition to this list, we offer you this week’s YouTube Tuesday featured artist, Pravda. Named after the now defunct Soviet Union’s leading newspaper, Pravda is one of our new favorite bands. Never thought anyone could improve on Wendy O. Williams’ use of electric tape until now. Check out all the music after the turn.

you’ll dance to anything……you know what you are….ART FAG…..
Dave “Blood” Schulthise, bass player of the Dead Milkmen was a good friend and a great human to boot. Bummer he’s gone. Long live the Dead Milkmen. On the topic of art fag, heard a great song today from the band CSS titled “Art Bitch”. Good tune and the lyrics are hilarious.
