I've been gathering links for ages without properly posting them. Here goes.
MUSIC
Oh Kings of Convenience, how I needed and missed you. And the same goes for you, too, Sondre!
Kanye's Swift interrupting tactics have been deemed press-worthy, because the theater of entertainment news loves simple stories. Jay-Z defended him. So much saturation that I saw this headline and thought "why did Venezuela have a summit just to criticize Kanye West?"
Jay-Z has been in the press a lot (just as planned, I'm sure) including highly publicized comments about indie rock and an appearance on Oprah and a huge press-event concert.
Epic rap track is epic.
Los Campesinos! are swinging back into prolific activity.
Mr. Magic, hip-hop DJ of the oldschool variety, has passed.
Wavves and Black Lips got into a fight.
Lil Wayne got friendly with Weezer. This kind of thing has become the norm.
Lyrics websites are being targeted for copyright infringement.
Muse (wisely) asked professional jackass Glenn Beck to retract his praise of the band.
Rock City keep releasing rad mixtapes. Don Cannon is obnoxious though.
Summertunes was released. Chiptune greats abound!
Is anybody having as much fun as Basement Jaxx are these days?
FILM
Good short films deserve to be seen.
Henry Gibson has died.
The old Polanski wounds have all reopened after the director's apprehension in France. Celebrities have weighed in. My take? The man committed a terrible crime and deserves to be punished for it.
Disney acquired Marvel.
Antichrist looks terrifying and crucial.
Paranormal Activity has been pretty brilliantly hyped.
AICN has exciting news about both Thor and the Facebook movie. Also, Woo's Red Cliff is finally coming stateside.
Fascinating-looking movie, and fascinating that "Hurt Locker-style" has become a thing.
Up In The Air looks fantastic, as do The Revenant and Metropia.
The Cove may have helped alleviate dolphin killings.
/Film loved Parnassus.
A filmmaker who chronicled El Salvador's gangs was shot dead.
A visually stunning Confucius biopic is coming soon.
Harmony Korine's latest sets a new standard for weird.
With all the hubbub about New Moon's soundtrack, it's notable that Jonah Hex is getting soundtracked by metalheads Mastodon.
I received an odd satisfaction, seeing Rob Zombie punished for making stupid, pretentious movies.
WEIRD
Facebook played a strangely significant role in a recent jealousy-fueled UK murder.
Russel Crowe was mean to a journalist. Flashback much?
New movie with The Rock looks impossibly braindead.
WORLD
Iran draws closer to nuclear capabilities.
U.S. unemployment soars.
Obama's recent speech to public school students caused a furor.
Ashcroft can be sued.
The scale of gorilla poaching is horrifying.
Interesting Net Neutrality laws were passed.
The last man to see Hitler alive recounts the experience.
PERSONAL
All I know is that I'm tired.

MUSIC
Some people would have you believe that Fuck Buttons sound like an angry Dan Deacon. Backwards. Dan Deacon sounds like a happy Fuck Buttons. Anyway, the new Fuck Buttons song is awesome and the video is perfect. Apparently Stereogum thinks their new album is "too polite." Please indie world let's not lose our heads; their name is FUCK BUTTONS.
So wow, I wasn't too into the new Massive Attack at first to be honest, but that goofy riff eventually just takes over you, like some subliminal message saying "we are all going to die" until you kinda believe it but still want to bob your head to it.
Crookers and Fever Ray sounds like an awkward mix, (I'd rather have Cudi and Fever Ray!) but it's basically just Crookers being friggin' Crookers with a few samples from Fever Ray to justify strapping it to the upcoming Fever Ray release. Not really complaining.
So... many... leaks! Jigga's latest is a prickly little thing, kinda slides along. The battle of Venus versus Mars, of course, ends in sex. (Duh!) And holy shit, Drake ft. Eminem and Weezy and Kanye. Any reason Em didn't go this hard on his latest release? And yeah, you can be sure I'm catching that Jay-Z show on my DVR.
I hadn't even heard of Weird Tapes a month ago, and now he is everywhere at all times.
FILM
Avatar is really going crazy. Midnight tickets are available four months in advance? A goofy-ass lawsuit? Sigourney Weaver is involved or something?
Emile Hirsch's play at Hamlet will go for scares. Honestly, it sounds pretty cool.
Wall Street II looks fantastic.
AICN readers dislike Halloween II.
Black Dynamite is coming to theaters! People are going to expect a romp and end up squirming in their seats. It will be a surreal movie-going experience.
WEIRD
Cool Lost poster is cool.
McG's authorial stamp: boobs.
WORLD
Ted Kennedy is dead.
Wikipedia is set to launch substantial revisions to page controls, according to the BBC. Also via the BBC, Karzai's lead is widening.

MUSIC
Hov is leaking so much material.
FILM
Oh no... /Film, I love you guys, but your musical analysis is on a lower plane than your film analysis. Saying Karen O's new song sounds like Arcade Fire and the Flaming Lips is... an interesting choice. To be frank, I kind of think the song (a soundtrack piece for Where The Wild Things Are) sucks. It's not just that I think Karen O is Siouxsie Sioux-Lite and all that, I just don't think it's a good song. It's kinda cringe-worthy to be frank. But oh well, maybe it's a grower? /Wrists.
It's really disconcerting to hear how the beloved Weinstein brothers pissed all over somebody's indie film.
Bioshock is moving ahead with a new director in tow.
Avatar Day reactions buzzing around.
Van Sant has a new film in his pipeline.
Inception's got a trailer! And it looks ace.
WEIRD
Nuthin'!

According to the BBC, a new treatment could reduce the severity of MS symptoms. Also via BBC, some more analysis on the release of the Lockerbie bomber.

August 23rd, 2009: What the hell?
How the hell did all of these days go by? It's really kind of disgusting that a week and a half slipped away without me noticing.
I don't have time to trawl through the dead of summer. Suffice it to say, health care is starving, some good music (that I can finally buy again) is on the horizion, and Avatar's trailer is causing a shitstorm. I urgently need to see Thirst, Inglourious Basterds, and District 9.
Regular posting is renewed tomorrow.

Wow, a blog entry about a single day! This has become the rarest of things for me, like stumbling upon a legendary Pokemon in the wild. Even more rare. Like, I caught it with a normal Pokeball on the first throw after dealing no damage. And it was level 99 but somehow obeyed my orders before my first gym badge. Okay, now I'm just fantasizing.
MUSIC
I had never heard of Naomi Shelton, but TMT set me straight!
Hoooooly shit, MikeWaxx and Nero are friggin' younger than me, whaaaaat? Also from illRoots, yet another dope mixtape.
Almighty Defenders (Black Lips + King Khan + BBQ) sound kind of like what would happen if a novelty 50s/60s revival band got really bored and decided to up the weird by about ten notches. In other words, they sound awesome.
This is one of the weirder music videos I've seen in... ever. Memory Weird Cassetes Tapes something something something.

July 7th through August 10th, 2009 [Complete!]
[8/10 Re-Update] Done!
[8/10 Update] STILL still tryin'!
[8/4 Update] Still tryin'!
Keeping a blog about pop culture is like any chore. You're too lazy to do it, so you let it slip a day, and the next day it's even longer and more tiresome a task, so you let it slip and slip until... well, until a whole damn month passes.
And it doesn't help that I don't have the money to see the films or buy the albums I blog about. But that'll change soon, with any luck.
Here it goes.
MUSIC
Here comes trouble!
Holy shit... they captured Pirate Bay. It's a depressing day for all of us. Had you ever been to the Pirate Bay's "Legal" section? This is... augh. Tragedy.
The Heath Ledger-directed anti-whaling Modest Mouse video is not without its rough edges but is genuinely chilling, and I will stand behind any and all earnest animal rights statements.
Also, Drake's hard knocks (and I include the somewhat meh video as one of those knocks) keep on rolling. His recent leg injury and collapse can't be helping this stress.
Animal Collective is running this shit.
Sondre Lerche continues to be what I like about being alive.
New Kings on October 20th! Good day!
Everybody got in a fuss about the first new Muse single, which I didn't think was bad but was definitely not worth the epic puzzle/game nonsense required for a listen. It's as polemic as Bellamy has always been, and why are people surprised that the new direction is Queen-ish? Anyway, the second new single is kinda better anyway but still waaaaay overstays its welcome.
I'm kinda letting myself get really excited about The Big Pink's upcoming. Accuse single "Dominos" of being Time To Pretend Part II all you want, but there's a warm fullness to their sound that rounds out the catchiness. Also, have you heard "Velvet"? I mean, really? People are (rightfully) praising the Antlers for aiming high, so let's at least share some of that. Ya dig?
I'm really late to this Basement Jaxx party going on, but holy god damn it is a good party. What with Royksopp tearing shit up earlier and still promising another release, it is a good year to like dancing.
Oh TMT, I like the way you think.
The new Raekwon is wiiiiild.
Please Billy Corgan, please let me like you again.
M83 got kinda violent for no good reason. Guys... you're not Morrissey.
Weezer's new songs are only a few degrees separate from the vibe they used to go for, but those few degrees make a shit ton of difference.
Interpol's Paul Banks is pulling a Sasha Fierce.
Goddamn, I thought Drake was going to run away with my "favorite rapper of the year" award, but I just can't get over how ballsy TreaZon has been. He's referenced Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, and I think Naruto, all in the last few months' worth of tracks. Referencing middle-school anime obsessions in your online leaks? Dude's letting it all hang out.
The indie world is stepping forward to support Chris Knox - including Jeff Mangum!
The new Raveonettes is actually really good.
Also, as far as finding a mixtape to succeed Drake's in terms of addictive listenability, lately the strongest contender has been Nero's new release. He can't work the 90stalgia angle forever, and that's one of the strongest selling points here, but I'm definitely getting used to his flow.
My crush on Bat For Lashes is goin' strong.
David Byrne is to U2 as Jarvis Cocker was to Michael Jackson (but evidently is no longer).
Big Sean needs some work, especially when it comes to swagger, but he's got the whole silky flow, addictive hook business locked down. Oh, and Kanye's hanging out back there or something. This and Day n' Nite as a double-feature? No-brainer. Other illRoots treats include Hova's new single, Cudi's new whatever-it-is-he-releases, and a guy named Gooz.
FILM
John Hughes is dead. Please don't underestimate the significance of those words.
Avatar is getting some wild hype. I have to admit that it's starting to grab me. They definitely owned Comic-Con, and with all the high profile stuff at Comic-Con, for an original plot to take the cake is saying something.
New York, I Love You looks fun.
Harmony Korine's next film is finished.
One of the best things about Austin is the Drafthouse, and, well, case in point.
Bad movies get sequels.
Lots of /Film Comic-Con blurbs. Where The Wild Things Are was dazzling. District 9 is apparently some kind of new religion. Kick-Ass surprised everybody with a gutpunch. Christmas Carol is going to scare you? Alice in Wonderland looks really fun. Secret Ninja Assassin screenings confirmed that the movie will feature blood. (Surprise!) Oh, and Tron Legacy is the movie I have been waiting for all these years.
Spielberg wants to stick some Elites.
Linklater is on his grind. Meanwhile, Duncan Jones is doing well.
Fantastic Mr. Fox doesn't have a great trailer, but I'm not nearly as displeased as everybody else seems to be. Flat, maybe. But not godawful.
I trust /Film, so I look forward to hearing more about Simple Machines.
Langella's joining the new Wall Street. This movie could end up pleasantly surprising me.
Definitely looking forward to Big Fan.
New Moon featuring music from Bon Iver and (gasp!) Thom Yorke? Now hear me out - what if Twilight was kinda the Pablo Honey of the film series? What if New Moon ends up being a The Bends, or even an OK Computer!? Yeah, probably not. Sigh. Oh, and Daft Punk are doing the new Tron, which makes a crapload more sense.
WEIRD
Minneapolis hates music or something. Honestly, as much as I feel for venues that'll buckle without 18+ hybrid shows, I've been offered beers at shows pretty much since I've been going to shows, and I can see the logic behind the potential laws. It's not a clean cut issue, and going all "up in arms" and pulling a Bill O'Reilly-esque "you're declaring war on Christmas!" rantfest is not going to solve an issue that requires a genuine compromise.
Lady Gaga is now confirmed to be a woman. Phew?
WORLD
I don't even know where to begin. Health care change is stuck in the mud and I doubt that any reform will pass. The real unemployment rate (the one including those who've ceased looking for work) is projected at 16.3 percent, which is beyond what I could have imagined. Typhoons pelt Asia while domestic pundits laugh off the global warming crisis. Is this the decline of U.S. dominance globally? What will that mean for my future, and the future of my friends and family? I don't have any other real facts to post in this section, just a large number of questions.
PERSONAL
The "world" section could get transplanted here.
Other things in my life seem normal. I'm working pretty hard to pull a short film together. I'm trying to stay productive. Oh, and the two bands I really want to get into: Sleater-Kinney and A Tribe Called Quest.
