Unheart it. When you absolutely, positively have to get that f*$king song out of your head…
And it works. Although, a word of caution. You may end up with an equally bad song stuck in your ears. My first three earwig removal “hits” consisted of the theme to the Andy Griffith Show, Conga by Gloria Estefan and, Antoine Dodson’s auto-tune-y rapist jam, Climbing Through Your Window. You have been warned.
Other nesting dolls by Jackson, Mississippi artist Ginger Williams include KISS, The Beatles and, The Jackson Five. Williams will open a solo show in Jackson on September 9th at the MS Arts Center.
Of the more than 100 works by Salvador Dali currently on display at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta is Dali’s 1973 holographic image of Alice Cooper. Here’s a link to the imageDali dubbed the “first Cylindric Chromo-Hologram Portrait of Alice Cooper’s Brain”. For the session, Cooper donned over 2 million dollars worth of diamonds (including a tiara) while clutching a statue of Venus De Milo. When it came to Cooper’s “brain”, Dali constructed a plaster mold and topped it with a chocolate éclair, covered in ants. Anyway, if that’s not metal, I don’t know what is.
A still of Nick Cave as a very bad-ass Shiva in Grinderman’s new video for Heathen Child. Grinderman 2 is due out on September 13th.
You can watch the video for Grinderman’s new single “Heathen Child”here. It’s completely bananas, 100% NSFW and completely worth the risk. This video has everything! Eyes that shoot laser beams, gladiators, Nick Cave in leopard print underwear in a gladiator costume, a naked chick in a tub, an eyeball popping Buddha and, the scariest fucking werewolf I’ve ever seen. Word.
Nick Cave and Grinderman 2 roll into Seattle (tickets on sale soon – stay tuned) on November 27th at the King Cat Theater. For a complete listing of Grinderman 2’s European and U.S. tour dates, click here.
Napitol. For when you absolutely, positively have to go the fuck to sleep. Click the image to be taken away to the wonder world of Napitol.
Even with all the side-effects, taking Napitol still sounds better than how I feel when I don’t get enough sleep. Except for those pesky crotch goblins. Those guys can take a hike!
Photographer Richard Burbridge and stylist Robbie Spencer created a photo spread entitled “War Heros” for web-based zine, Dazed Digital. Good news guys, baby arms are back in! Baby arms!
Bootsy’s Funk University! It’s real! Mostly! For Electric Sarah…
Since Bootsy Collins already has more Funk than he knows what do do with, he decided to open an online school for Earth-dwelling bass players like himself called, Funk University. So if you’re a bass player currently residing on planet Earth that loves the funk and, really-don’t-give-a-funk-about-anything-but-the-funk, Bootsy Collins wants YOU.

The Mad Drummer from another planet, Steve Moore. For LP and Tommy. Thanks to DB for the link.
Okay, so drummer Steve Moore isn’t actually mad or from another planet (sorry Ace). However, when it comes to this video of Moore keeping time for Rick K and the Allnighters (!), you get the impression that Moore might be a fan of legendary two-minute punks, The Minutemen. Which isn’t a bad thing. Word.
Also, if you live somewhere in the continental United States, it’s likely that Moore will be stopping by your little dot on the U.S. map any day now.
More mind-boggling knit wear from Taipei native Ming Yi Sung here.
Programing note: Posts will be slowish while I keep watch for the Easter Bunny. Who will hopefully look like the one in this post and not like Frank from Donnie Darko.
Adventure Time! More madness from the every excellent Fred Seibert. For AFJ.
Adventure Time!, a new animated series for kids, will make it’s debut in April. Why should you care? Because Adventure Time! is basically a super-trippy, PG rated version of Super Jail. Yes, really.
So, be sure to clean out your very best Budweiser bong because Adventure Time! premieres on Cartoon Network on April 5th.
Stylo comes from Gorillaz third record, Plastic Beach is due out on March 8th.
Also, check out Gorillaz.com to play The Plastic Beach game. This sweet little time killer even includes an animated appearance by Mr. Roarke’s main man, Hervé Villechaize.
The giant show penis of Stevens Pass, Washington. Thanks to my favorite snow bunny, JC for the photo.
I can tell you three things that are true about this giant snow penis, photographed by a very sexy member of Team Cherrybomb last week while she was looking for giant snow penises skiing at Stevens Pass:
1: Unlike most penises you might see on the Internets, Snow Penis has not been photoshopped.
2: Snow Penis is a product of Mother Nature herself. Which, when you think about makes perfect sense.
3: Unlike regular penises, Snow Penis has the opposite reaction to the cold. Grrrrr! Ahem, I mean brrrrr.
