Bigmouths Strike Again: Generosity & Losers Edition

Today's very special installment of Bigmouths... brings us not one but two quotes with which to tickle your pullquote identification skillz. In one sitting, discussing global events and self-confidence, this artiste established both deep-rooted compassion and infallible logic. Bravo.

#1
"I am a very giving person. When the hurricane thing happened, I went to my closet, filled six boxes of stuff and said to my assistant, 'Take it to Katrina!' I also like to give stuff to people who are my 'workers,' especially if they don't make much money."

#2
"People love me and people hate me, but I'm comfortable in my own skin and that's what counts. And anyway if you do hate me, you're the loser, not me."

Nobody's arguing with that. Guess the altruistic rhetorician, then take the jump.

I think Avril and Ms. Teen South Carolina would get along well.

I like how she says take it to Katrina, which isn't an actual place as opposed to New Orleans.

If they're her workers, couldn't she just pay them more?

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...

Damien Jurado - "Murderer" (Low Cover)

After hearing "Gillian Was A Horse" from Damien Jurado's forthcoming Caught In The Trees, we contacted the Seattle singer-songwriter and asked if he'd want to premiere a track at Stereogum. Lucky for us (and you), it turned out he had...
