The Huffingon Post Meets Conor Oberst Conor Oberst seemingly will be more Mystic Valley than it will "When The President Talks To God," but that hasn't stopped CO from stumping, and that's where the HuffPo picks up in this recent Q&A. Read it here.

"It's amazing to see someone that is thinking in a way that transcends our kind of politics--the greatest thing about America is that we can reinvent ourselves and become better than what we were before. I think that he really represents that." - Yeah. Like continuing to fund the war, voting for the Patriot Act and not standing up against the unconstitutional FISA bill. Vote for change, sheeple.

any time someone says the word "sheeple", I completely disregard everything they have to say. go back to sucking RON PAWL's cock, no one gives a shit.

I find the guy pretty annoying, but at least he's honest when he says talks about The President Talks to God: "I don't even know how much of a song it is--it's more like a commercial to a point of view."

Band To Watch: Blank Dogs

Blank Dogs are actually singular: It's the insanely prolific one-man Brooklyn-based band of Mr. Blank Dog. We don't know too much about the biography of the guy behind the bedroom new-wave pop/punk and he's usually covering his face with masks...

Quit Your Day Job: Megafaun

Raleigh-via-Eau Clair BTW Megafaun debuted impressively earlier this year with Bury The Square. The trio nip-and-tuck experimental tendencies (tape splicing, white noise colliding with banjo, junkyard-laced spring reverb, screeching feedback at the tail end of a quiet back porch lament)...

Premature Evaluation: of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping

Skeletal Lamping is anything but skeletal. When we took a close listen to album closer "Id Engager" we mentioned it wasn't the strangest, most ambitious, or best tune on of Montreal's new one, but after absorbing the other 14 tracks,...

OldStand: Rolling Stone, September 13, 1984

Take our ink-stained hands and join us at the OldStand, where Jon McMillan goes to remind everyone what an honest-to-goodness music magazine is supposed to look like. Lots of Huey Lewis (and the News) news lately, so let's go back...
