Watch Out - Breakfast at Sulimays ep. 36

who: Breakfast at Sulimays (woodshopfilms)
why: alright so this another YouTube channel dealy I subscribe to, and most of them are hilarious. Basically it's a panel of three old people who are usually subjected to listening to new and upcoming music. Because they're frivolously old and right in their ways, they usually say it's all a bunch of crap (that's why it's funny). In this particular episode, they watch the music video for MGMT's "Kids" instead and dislike it even more. For anyone who hasn't seen this video, I personally think it's awesome but it's pretty controversial and you should watch it and get your own opinion first. Either way, Breakfast at Sulimays is hilarious.



BONUS LINKS
MGMT - Kids
B@S's ep. 37: Shakira - She Wolf

Watch Out - The Roots

who: The Legendary Roots Crew
why: released a video for their latest single "How I Got Over" about a month ago and I just saw it for the first time. Seriously... if you don't like The Roots there's something unforgivably wrong with you. Go Phillies!

DUDE! - Alice Goodwin and Bianca Knight

who: Alice Goodwin and Bianca Knight
why: because I came across these pictures of these ridiculously fine ladies posing as boxers in Maxim and felt the need to start a new thread... and I'm a nice guy so I'm sharing them with all of you. Click the LINK for full-size pictures if you just can't help yourself.



you're welcome.

Watch Out - Kasabian

who: Kasabian
why: because they wanted a fresh, new way to promote their newest album - so they made a video. Also because I couldn't find anything more "blogworthy" than this to talk about today, and who doesn't love a British accent?



Their new album 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum' was released in June - check it out! If you're curious, the song sampled in the video is the first song off the record, titled "Underdog".

Read All About It - Attack Attack!

who: Attack Attack!
why: because frontman and screaming vocalist Nick Barham has "non-explosively" left the band. This sucks, because I hate when bands breakup... it seems like the music never comes out the same. Bands like Emarosa, Dance Gavin Dance, A Skylit Drive just to name a few off the top of my head have suffered because of lost members. On the other hand, bands like Blessthefall and The Fall of Troy have been able to overcome losses like these with new gains and in some instances, an improved sound.

The main thing that I'm not really feeling with this change is that instead of replacing Nick with someone new, Caleb (keys/programming) is gonna take the frontman posish and replace the performance of live keys with an iPod (sampled). I'm personally hoping it'll just be a temporary sacrifice and they find someone new, because I love the fact that there are six of them making such layered, aggressive music.
