Weekly Round Up – May 31st 2009
So here’s what is cool and intersting this week:
- Allentown, once reviled for its association with Billy Joel, made a comeback by giving birth to Pissed Jeans. Sub-Pop reveals PJs new album, King of Jeans’ artwork, tracklist and the release date (8/18/09)
- Fucked Up’s Pink Eye (Damian Abraham) is a media darling. He was recently announced to become Fox News regular on the show Red Eye, and then he was on the radio show Q to discuss the news. This is the same Q, where Billy Bob Thorton was a total dick.
- New Vivian Girls will be released by In the Red on 9/8/09 (while you are there you can pick up the repressed 7″ and the S/T)
- Adam LOVES Apollo Ghosts, so he, like you should be, is really excited about the reissues and new EP on Catbird records.
- MBV tips us off to a new Pains of Being Pure of Heart 7″
- Is your life lacking in sludgy punk and collective plates? Well then, you are in luck! Pre-order the new Big Business EP from HydraHead and add a collective ceramic plate! And if that doesn’t suit your fancy you can always pick up that Khanate engraved hunting knife (WTF)…
- Stereogum drops knowledge on the new Jay Reatard goings-ons as well as having a picture of him dressed up as a character from Underworld.
- Jimmy Fallon continues to have cool music moments despite the odds never being in his favor
Can anybody tell me why MCA is dressed like Walker Texas Ranger extra?
