Review: Strange Breaks & Mr. Thing.

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

When I got this I was confused. I didn’t think people did this anymore. Initially I gave it a quick pass, and blew it off as a set of good, obscure dance tracks. That is not the purpose of a break tape though. So, last night, I took some of the tracks and threw [...]

I’ll always have a soft spot for N.E.R.D. & Pharrell’s “solo” musical efforts (I’ll even forget about In My Mind if we ever see ?uestlove’s re-work). All 3 or so versions of the 1st N.E.R.D.  album were pure gold.
In case you somehow missed the mp3 floating around here it is:
MP3: N.E.R.D.-Everybody Nose.

Podcast: Welcome Back

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Podcast
Hello Again!!! Metal Lungies Radio is back for Season 2. Our first show was just a healthy dose of all the music we’ve been listening to over our extended break and we didn’t get any calls because we changed our night without telling anyone. But its a great show anyway.
Look forward to our next installment, [...]

As a child, Poizunus struggled with a speech impediment but after speech therapy, [...]

Remix Tuesdays: Gang Starr.

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

Just like last Tuesdays’ post on the Alkaholiks, I had some trouble finding a decent-sized cover of the single for this post. Plus this cover for the Lovesick 12′ is the closest I could find to a cover for this release of this particular remix of Gang Starr’s “Lovesick”.
This remix is done by [...]

I just got an email from Tree Beats, of the very dope Too Fat, You Must Cut Lean blog, about this new project he’s started with a bunch of my favourite blogs & bloggers (several of whom are ML affiliates!). Here’s the skinny:

Lady In The Men’s Room.

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Man, it’s been a while since ML hosted a True Story post. Last one was back in July before I even joined the site. Basically
Earlier today I was in a Chapters (for our non-Canadian readers, it’s a crappier version of Borders or Barnes & Noble) browsing when I felt nature calling. I located the [...]

VH1 Spotlight: ODB On Parole

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Via Wu-Tang Mountain Via Bang The Box 
I had no idea this existed. Mostly covers Ol’ Dirty’s release from prison while on parole. He sings old R&B with his mom, eats his first meal outside and comes on to a reporter at his press conference. Russell looks afflicted with the “bloat” in these clips, [...]
