Kevin Tong: Illustrator God

Not a big Star Wars fan, but dude just put out an amazing R2D2 poster. The video below detailing how the print was created is mind-blowing (for any computer design nerd, anyway!). The print goes on sale tomorrow, 11/26 at a random time here. Geek on...

Album of the Week

Amiina, Puzzle

"What Are We Waiting For?"

Awesome footage of the band in the early days playing one of their signature songs...

I was at ye olde Pig n Whistle on Hollywood Blvd. to witness history...

Album of the Week (Halloween Edition)

Solo Andata, Ritual
Séance music, anyone? Probably not the best thing to listen to after seeing Paranormal Activity 2, which wasn't as good as the first but still plenty creepy. Of course I'm such a wuss that I can only listen to this record at work in broad daylight. Lame.

Below, the indelible Patrick Watson & his mercurial band performing live and in the NPR studio, and the trailer to the excellent but sadly very little seen (and NOT on DVD in the US!) French Canadian movie he wrote the music for, "It's Not Me, I Swear!" I suggest checking them both out immédiatement.
