"We are actually in a classic depression. A depression is when nobody wants to spend. Everybody wants to pay down their debt at the same time. Everybody is trying to pull back, either because they got too far into debt, or because if they’re a corporation, they can’t sell because consumers are pulling back. The thing about an economy is that it fits together. My spending is your income. Your spending is my income, so if we all pull back at the same time, we’re in a depression. The way to get out of it is for somebody to spend so that people can pay down their debt, so that we don’t have a depression. So that we have a chance to work out of whatever excesses we had in the past, and that somebody has to be the government."

Newsprint sentimentalists are part of a shrinking club. Plenty of people care about news, but the fetishists who want it to be imprisoned on paper? We are like Shriners, once a proud, powerful bunch who now meet in little rooms and exchange secret handshakes.
Nothing gets print romanticists…
This. Is. Wrong.
The incomparable Frank Zappa performs Peaches En Regalia off the seminal Hot Rats album.
I remember my first time hearing this song coinciding with one of my earliest adventures with pot (yeah, me and EVERYONE that heard this song for the first time. How else do you find out about Zappa anyway amiright?) I’m not a huge Zappa fan per se. However, I think that this track is a particularly badass, strange-in-the-best-way tune. Love him or hate him, Frank was able to lay down some music that when heard, are unmistakably his and NO ONE else’s.
Is it just me or does it sound as if Peaches is some epic bootleg jam by Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes that just didn’t make the final cut for the movie??
This cannot fucking happen.
Best. Job. Ever.
Meet Randall Poster. He’s the guy who picks out the music in all of Wes Anderson’s films, including his latest Moonrise Kingdom (pictured above.) This is how Poster’s job works.

You can’t reproduce the sound, the feel, the smell. You can’t turn, or fold, or smooth a page on the net. You can’t mash silly putty to a computer screen. You can’t put down web sites to eat crawfish…
This makes me extremely sad.
Walked outside this morning and found a soon-to-be collectors item on my doorstep :(
Sarah Walker has, is and always will be my imaginary girlfriend.

Is that a water mark?
Beck + Jack White = Fuck yes.
Beck’s forthcoming one-off single on Third Man Records— fronted by the awesomely titled “I Just Started Hating Some People Today” and featuring production and instrumentation from Jack White— is out May 28.
Still can’t believe it…

BUSTED. Print journalism may be dying, but the laws protecting one’s writing certainly aren’t. Good for this guy.
