This is what I do on Saturday nights.

So I'm wasting time alone in the house on a Saturday night as a 17 year old that doesn't drive by just screwing around on the internet, because really, the fuck else am I supposed to do? Anyway, I was catching up with the Expert Whiteboy Analysis best rap songs list when I decided to click on to the EWA blog itself. And you know what I found?

Fucking Inframan.

I was maybe eight when my dad came home one day with this tape and I must've watched that thing like fifity times before I lost the tape in a tornado in 03. Ever since then, I've been looking all over the internet trying to find out about it because I remember it ruling, but could never find anything (probably because for the last 9 years I thought it was called "Infrared Man." Whoops.)

What matters is this is like the best movie ever. I've been reading this and it's just bringing back a flood of memories of wanting to be in this movie. I'm so stoked to finally remember just what it was.

So yeah. This is what I do on Saturday nights.


On another movie related note, last night I saw Ratatouille, and it was about the best looking thing I've ever seen. There's a scene around a sewer and it's mind blowing how great it looks. It's also flat out a great movie. I don't think this often, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy it as soon as it come out.

And on another movie thing, last night/ this morning, I watched Crash (1996) on IFC. Sometime around 98 I asked my parents about X-rated or NC-17 movies and they mentioned seeing this. They just said it was about car wrecks. Cool. I've waited almost ten years to see this.

And I'm so fucking angry that my parents didn't tell me how fucking bad it is. By far, the worst movie I've ever seen, even beating out Hail Caesar, which I didn't think it'd be possible to be worse than. Ugh.

So....

As of late, I'd say my lack of posts involve not only laziness, but just a general lack of real things that actually interest me. For the most part, hardocore, hip-hop, books, TV, everything have just been totally uninteresting (well, except Adventures in Hollyhood, and I guess it falls under two of those). The summer started and I've found myself just wasting away.

Lucky for me (and I guess the rest of the world), things are finally starting to look up.

First off, the new Weezy mixtape leaked. And you know what? It's got some real good parts on it. I'll probably listen to this a lot more than I did anything else. Thanks to mikeford for pointing me in the right way.

I went and upped two of my favorite songs off of it at this point. So if you don't feel like getting the whole thing, look into these.

Something You Forgot


Next up, the new Fabolous leaked. Click that mikeford link up there and look around for his kinda review. I think it's a little better than he does, but whatever. 

As for the new Pharoahe Monch, it's a little here and there. I'm somewhere between Bol and Noz on this one.

Like everyone else, I'm completely into the new UGK video with Outkast.



On the hardcore side of things.... Well, the new Death Before Dishonor's pretty good. That new Bad Brains record is crazy, but I haven't found myself listening to it lately. Hopefully something will pop up that I care about soon.



On another note, the new Pokemon rules. 21 hours deep since Friday night. I might have a problem.

Whoa, fuck

After thinking about it forever, I'm actually updating this thing. Weird. As of late I've thought of a bunch of shit I'd throw on here, but just never got around to it. So I guess I'll just kick this off with a post I've been keeping in my head for about a month now.


A week ago today, I was happily sitting here in pain because the night before I saw the Little Rock show of the Hatebreed/Terror/who cares tour. It took $20 to see it, but it was way worth it. I'd never seen Hatebreed as I had missed out the opportunity to see them in 03 with Slayer, and it'd been two years since I saw Terror in Memphis with MLIW and Comeback Kid. That was pretty fun.  The place almost completely cleared out after Terror played, leaving CBK to play to about 50 people that cared. Here's some pictures of the Terror set. It ruled and I think my arm is prominently displayed in one of them.

Anyway, the show last week is by far some of the most fun I've had in forever. 
I had never been to the venue since nothing I ever care about gets booked there. 
I wanted to see Say Anything there once, I think. The venue though had this weird 
levels thing going on, which made for awesome dive potential.

Unfortunately for me, it also made for me landing on my face. 

So awesome. 

When it comes down to it though, there's probably not a better way I'd want 
to spend $20 than seeing Terror. Probably the most fun you can have if you're
not watching George Clinton and the P-Funk Allstars. 

I did some hunting and saved some Terror videos from youtube that I decided ruled. Have fun.
