punk attitude: must see film

find out why i always hated nirvana, why new york gets all the credit, and why music today is more like processed cheese than audible food. a must see film for any music lover. super cool, double freak ass bad. see all ten parts or better yet, rent the dvd. everyone from MC5, suicide, ny dolls, clash, television, patti smith, ramones, iggy, black flag, pistols, joy division, sonic youth, and so so on. not to be missed is henry rollins, he is hilarious in part nine or ten where he talks about the beastie boys and the rest. by dd

SUICIDE: better late than never

i’ve been listening to nothing but ‘alan vega’ and ‘suicide’ for the past few days (with gratitude to hd) and i can’t help but be so so impressed by their work, 30+ years later. i hear so many future bands in their body of work, it’s quite amazing how influential they were.  searching, i found this clip, certainly worth sharing. i think maybe great music can only exist when you have no audience in mind… and even then it can still fail. i suppose that goes for everything that ends up being truly special. by dd

En hand i himlen : Jonathan Johansson

great track by swede-pop artist jonathan johansson.  directed by simeon frohm, and shot on location in stockholm, lisbon, paris, barcelona, rome and pamplona. roughly translates into “one hand in heaven/the sky”.  now it would have been cool if they played this last night when we were intoxicated off our feet. by dd
