MUSIC:
I don't understand the track ratings at Pitchfork, at all, but the "6" rating they give to Passion Pit's new song at least fits their (unlinkable) review of the song. Hey, though, it's a fun tune. Also, the Pitchfork folks spent time talking about tattoos today.
Over on DiS, Lipster's all up on the week in singles. Dananananaykroyd's song kind of does nothing for me, and they seem pretty intent on proving how above Animal Collective they are, so that's two big strikes.
The audiovisual piece feels kind of like a fan video, but I won't look Fader's freeloadhorse of CFCF in the mouth. Oh, and they've got a couple of lonely stoners doing their live thing.
Not that Drake's mixtape was getting old, but this new TreaZon stuff is the same delectable mix of nerdy, spacey and smooth.
FILM:
Before you go out and nab the Let The Right One In DVD (which normally I'd recommend you do ASAP) read this cautionary message about the new subtitling job. It really is pretty ghastly.
Miyazaki's new film is coming stateside.
Via IFC's blogs, critics were pretty fair to my favorite film of the year so far and offer some interesting thoughts on the interesting doc Objectified.
WEIRD:
I read "mumblecore parody," I thought to myself "too early." I saw a mumblecore parody, and I thought "right on time."
Sing and dance erratically inside a french McDonalds and your ass is going to jail.
WORLD:
The New York Times reports on increasing tension along the U.S.-Mexico border.
PERSONAL:
Scripts to revise, rough drafts to perfect, essays to finish, and possibly a film to produce. Jesus.
