Today's Quick Mention: Tonight I'll be attending the
Most Interesting
Academy (sponsored by Dos Equis) at Faulkenstein Castle.
I honestly have no idea what to expect, but as long as I get plenty of free
beverages I'll probably be pretty satisfied. Follow me, if you dare,
on Twitter
for updates throughout the event.
Why? has been one of my favorite bands for a large number of years, so when
they announced a new full length I immediately began anxiously awaiting a
single. Yesterday, I finally received it, and today, after much far
too much personal celebrating, I have it for your immediate consumption.
Eskimo Snow is due out on Anticon in late September. Enjoy.

- This Blackest Purse:
The collage-like style songwriting and nasally vocals that
Yoni Wolf provides are what I've always loved most about
this band, so when I see comments about the new stuff being
the "least hip hop" of all their efforts, it doesn't bother
me. Although, I will say that this slow-burning number
sounds a lot like some of the stuff that made up their last
album, Alopecia, so it really isn't surprising to me
that a bigger shift towards the more accessible end of
experimental spectrum happened.
