One of my favorites from 2009 Japandroids made their television debut on Jimmy Fallon last night and performed 'Wet Hair'.

Jawbox On Fallon

DC post punk heroes Jawbox are celebrating the rerelease of their classic album For Your Own Special Sweetheart. Originally released on a major label and long since out of print the record has been reissued by Desoto/Dischord with an upgraded cover to boot. Last night the band played "Savory" on Jimmy Fallon and two more tracks for the web.

Nirvana Live At Reading

Listening to the just released album of Nirvana live at Reading from 1992 I'm beginning to realize that I missed out on seeing them live when I had the chance. I first became aware of the band when my local college radio station played "Smells Like Teen Spirit" right after Nevermind was released. I remember being captivated by the song but also being confused because I could not neatly put it in the category of what I was defining as punk at the time. Now almost two decades later it is clear that Nirvana were much more "punk" than almost all of the bands I was listening to at the time. Live at Reading shows the band as a true power trio firing on all cylinders. The band assaults these songs with an intensity seldom seen. Man I wish I would have caught them at Trees when I had the chance.

"Too Many Rappers"
Over the weekend the B-Boys played at Bonnaroo and brought out "Nasty" Nas for this track from their upcoming album. The sound is pretty shitty but the track sounds good and gets me excited about hearing the album.

New Morrissey Video "Something Is Squeezing My Skull"

Morrissey is an old pro and can be a great entertainer. He can also be a big diva sometimes. Way back when I was in high school I scraped together enough money to buy a ticket to his concert and "Moz" came out and played half heatedly for twenty minutes and called it a night. It took me a while to get over that one.

This one was played by the band in Munich and might be a b-side for an upcoming single.
