All My Friends Are Funeral Singers
I finally got to see All My Friends Are Funeral Singers, the movie directed by Califone frontman Tim Rutili. I thought it was pretty great to have a movie accompany such a wonderful record. The story follows a young psychic who lives in a house along with a cast of ghosts who are “trapped” in [...]
Downfall

We basically showed up with [...]

That Will Never Get Blood Out of a Clown Suit
Patrick Scott and Theo Katsaounis make up the deranged duo that is Locks. They never cease to amaze me with their creativity and music that is so off kilter yet strangely catchy. This track is from their newest album, Suicides Don’t Commit Themselves. Locks “that will never get blood out of a clown suit” from [...]
Soft Skeletons
This is some great live footage shot of my friends Call Me Lightning, an excellent band from Milwaukee (now 1/3 Chicago). It looks like people at the show are actually having fun! What a novel concept. Call Me Lightning – “Soft Skeletons” – Live in Milwaukee from High Frequency Media on Vimeo. Pass it on
