NEW GTA TRAILER

Friday, March 30, 2007

Looks like a new GTA is on its way, and they’ve finally decided to actually set it in New York. So now you can tool around for hours outside the gameplay griping about all the neighborhood details they missed or reenacting that time you tripped straight into a cop horse at Coney Island. I don’t know how many of you are into Fairport Convention, but if you cut the sound on this trailer and sync it up with the intro to "The Lobster" from their first album it’s actually really intense. Swearsies.


NEW YORK - NOT FUNNY?

Friday, March 30, 2007

Malerape1We’re all for these guys, SPR, and their whole campaign to get TV writers and ad guys to stop making light-hearted jokes about getting shoved into your cell by three guys and having your face pressed into the sink in the corner of the room with a shank to your throat while one guy tears open your jumpsuit and the two take turns ripping your ass open with their hands and HIV-laden cocks (hardy-har, right?), but seriously guys, could you have picked someone for your PSA who is, I don’t know, a little less funny?

WHO IS SIMON FARROWLAND?

Friday, March 30, 2007

Our buddy Saam Farahmand (in the pink sweater) is the "hottest" music video director in the world right now. Klaxons heap praise on him in a recent interview with a free magazine which describes itself as "a lifestyle title for 21st century media savvy creatures." But it seems the dictaphone was dodgy because the interviewer decided to give Iranian-born Saam a nice Anglo-Saxon name. The misnomer now threatens to spark an international incident…

SPRAY PAINTED LADIES

Friday, March 30, 2007

Graffbum
We can’t quite put our finger on it, but there’s something pretty cool about the artwork on this site. We normally hate nerdy graffiti and shitty tags, but for some unknown reason we can’t help looking at this really, really, really awful graffiti. We’re not sure whether it’s the amateur-looking bubble letters and poor attempts at wildstyle, or the pert asses and perfect tits, but we’re hooked.


SIPPIN’ ON SIZZURP

Friday, March 30, 2007

Musicworld_screwed5 In Music World, the assorted denizens of the City of Syrup finally stop beating around the bush and get Trace up on some of that lean/ purple drank/ sizzurp/ oil/ Texas Tea/ etc. From SXSW we’ve got Brooklyn faves Boris lumbering through their bulldozer of a set. And don’t forget, we’ve got two new DOs & DON’Ts & Friends.


DEAR VICE - THE RICHEST BUM IN SWEDEN

Thursday, March 29, 2007

ShitmoneyDear Vice,
One night in October me and some friends got ourselves kicked out of a party. On the way to the next one we went for hotdogs. In front of us in the line was this tiny, homeless lady. Her jacket was rugged, her shoes had been worn for a decade, as had her pants. Suddenly some asshole at the back of the line started yelling stuff like, “What a little shitty lady!” …

INTERVIEW - SIMIAN MOBILE DISCO

Thursday, March 29, 2007

After producing the latest Arctic Monkeys and Klaxons albums, James Ford has been dubbed the Phil Spector of 2007. But he’s a million miles away from being a paranoid-schizophrenic alcoholic who fires gun shots at musicians in the studio, enslaves his ex-wife, and murders someone from Xena: Warrior Princess (ALLEGEDLY)…

CITY OF SYRUP / SXSW / EPICLY LATER’D

Thursday, March 29, 2007

In Houston, Trace leads a reminiscence parade for forefather of the City of Syrup’s Chopped ‘n Screwed scene, the legendary DJ Screw. From Vice’s party at this year’s SXSW, we’ve got more torturously awesome footage of the Melvins. And just to offer you a little respite from all the Texasness…
