LOST



yes, lost is back. today, we were given an incredible mindfuck of a new episode for all the nerds and losers that are hopelessly addicted to this television masterpiece.

the writer's strike basically ruined my life, but thank you to the douchebags who completed 8 episodes for me to enjoy for the next 8 weeks.

it's a love/hate relationship, and right now, i love it.

blue scholars - joe metro (2007)



blue scholars are a hip-hop duo out of seattle, washington. they're one of the few groups out there still trying to make lyrical hip-hop real and legitimate a driving force for the mainstream. i caught wind of this song on mtvU at school, and had to hear it immediately. one of my cousins told me about them, and it clicked, and i remembered the video, which was pretty exciting.

but just like all other lyricists, this duo will be underrated and overlooked. this is their single "joe metro," off of their 2007 album, bayani. also included is the video for it. check it out.

on the might of princes - sirens (2003)



i got onto this band late, per panda's recommendation. but i figure i should make a post about it, because panda is busy getting deported and stabbing people.

this album is straight intensity. guitars rip, vocals rule, lyrics are insane. great album from a great band who broke up in 04. supposedly they reunited in 06, but i'm not sure if it was a one-off or not. i just love this album. pardon me for not knowing a damn thing.

paper rival - paper rival (2007)



paper rival (they used to go by "keating," but went under a name change in 07) is an fairly new indie rock act out of nashville who released the paper rival ep on photo finish records in mid 07. smooth vocals and slick guitars made for a great debut ep. i can't wait to hear more from them.

panda can party!



ok, so i'm doing this for two reasons. one, i'm driving a long ways to see this, and two, i'm saving jerome the embarrassment of posting this himself and looking like a giant tool promoting his own band on a blog site.

anyway, if you live in the lubbockish area this weekend, you shall see panda in his glory getting drunk and acting a fool, singing songs from his latest project, panda can party!. if anything, i'll grab some videos of him grinding on speakers, the microphone and the bartender and put em up on youtube.

add panda can party! on myspace, or get stabbed. while you're there, listen to the new track. if you don't, this would also be considered grounds for getting stabbed.

northstar - acoustic (misc.)



god damn, i love this band. this is a set of five acoustic tracks from them. i have kindly put them together in a tiny bundle to sooth your soul.

tracks include: for members only, my ricochet, taker not a giver, the pornographer's daughter and train hopping in dixieland. love it.

colour revolt - naked and red (2008)



colour revolt is a wonderful band who is releasing a new album, plunder, beg and curse, on april 1, 2008. this is the first (single?) song that's been released off the album, and it is equally wonderful.

10,000 HITS.

looks like we broke ten thousand total hits. not too shabby, considering we started this little corner of the interweb back in october. we also haven't promoted much. anyway, we here at wwm would just like to thank all you lovely people for hitting us up daily and telling your friends about us (keep it up!). also, a big, big thanks to the artists/musicians/photographers who have contributed and thanked us for the hype. you're the reason this is here begin with.

everyone keep on keepin on and spread the word. we're working on new things and new features. and just a reminder, let us know if you think we should be hyping something we're missing out on. we're pretty fucking awesome, but perfect we're not. holler!

10,000

dear readers,

we're slightly short of being on the blogger map for four months now, and we've realized that we have reached 10,000 hits. that just about rules everything. we're glad people read this thing (suckers) and i'm going to assume you dig us, because no one has said we suck or called us ugly yet.

thanks for being our friends, and here is to 20,000.

holla at cha boy,

the carps - young & passionate days of carpedia (2007)



if you look at the carps "sounds like" section on myspace, it really does describe them perfectly..

"marketing companies say: it's punk rock with a gun to R&B's head on the dance floor."

canadian drum and bass duo the carps take the best aspects of dfa 1979 and add in their own soulful, R&B tinged flavor. add in clever lyrical ability, and you've got some fresh work. they've got a new ep coming out march 25th, and their working on a full length, tentatively due out later this year. expect big things from the carps in '08. let's fall in love.

enjoy their amazingly well made video for "compton to scorboro":
