MUSIC:
Good day on Pitchfork. The new Cursive track is much fun. The DM Stith video is absolutely gorgeous. The Kanye live video, from his upcoming Storytellers show, kicks ass.
RCRD LBL's claim to "exclusivity" on their downloads of Paper may be highly dubious (a quick google search reveals the tracks available for download from several other blogs a week ago) but don't let that discourage you from seizing these kinda-2008-but-just-recently-topical gems.
Also on RCRD LBL, Hype Williams sound like what I think going to hell would sound like, and Rone's little electro popping sounds are very comfortable to slip into.
Hunstville just kind of feels intense at this point.
Kanye shares a bit of Kid Cudi.
FILM:
Via /Film, this (oldish?) awesome now-required-reading Vast Public Indifference blog tackles the gender issues in Pixar movies.
It's just an interview with Watchmen's science consultant, but I will take what I can get at this point. And predictably, Zack Snyder is gonna be one busy dude.
Samuel L. Jackson is going to be Nick Fury nine times. Rejoice!
WEIRD:
Kanye and Transformers do the advertising-dirty.
Via BoingBoing, a different kind of crayon art.
WORLD:
The New York Times reports that several states are considering an end to the death penalty for financial reasons. They also report on violent clashes in Somalia that have been claiming numerous lives.
PERSONAL:
Unexpected: one of the albums of 2008 getting the most play on my iTunes is 808s. Hmm.
I woke up feeling pretty nauseous, and it wrought havoc on my day. Here's hoping that tomorrow I'm feeling well enough to do all the crap I need to do.
2009 FILMS SEEN: 4
2009 SONGS ON MY ITUNES: 439
Current Computer Situation: MacBook Pro, addicted to cocaine.
