Pieces of shit. Take me away. Little particles of dust. Sing it loud, sing it proud, say something fresh.

New CSS Video, “Rat is Dead”


The five member Brazilian art-music collective CSS is back with their sophomore release, Donkey. Album drops July 22nd on Sub Pop, and we just received this promo video for their first single, "Rat is Dead." Anyone familiar with the preceding Cansei Der Se Sexy LP will immediately note the shift toward, um, we’ll call it musical maturity for now — less on the electro party do-as-you-please style, more on the vocally structured, new wave-sounding, “my name is Lovefoxxx and, yes, I actually sing tip.” But until we hear the entire album, whether or not the new CSS is a better CSS remains open to debate. Though Lovefoxxx is looking as cute and fashionably eccentric as usual, donning a glimmering white one-piece with some type of tutu fabric for the shoulders a la boa style, topped off with a waist length tassel or two down the chest. Gotta give her points for that.

The Cool Kids: That's Stupid! (The Mixtape)



Run DMC, Beastie Boys, a taste of Too $hort for some of them playa points -- Mikey Rocks and Chuck Inglish, aka The Cool Kids duo, are indeed pushing that late 80s, sweet bass rumping, 808 sound. With slots on both Lollapalooza and Rock the Bells stages this summer, and hot off the heels of their debut The Bake Sale EP, the Cool Kids continue to clamber on up the music chain. On That's Stupid!, with homage to Sir Mix-A-Lot's "My Posse on Broadway" and Eric B & Rakim's "Paid in Full" it's time to rattle that trunk, put them windows down and lay back that seat, cuz' main street with the Cool Kids be calling.
