Tayo - FabricLive.32 (2007)

I can't be fucked to make a mix this week, so enjoy this instead. I've been listening to a lot of dubstep recently and this is always first on my iPod. Even if you're not a fan of the genre, I think you'll be able to still appreciate it. Enjoy.

Splice

This is oficially the worst film ever. The entire plot boils down to this:

Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley are lovers/scientists who splice (hey, that's the name of the film!) animal and human DNA, resulting in a creature called Dren (hey, that's 'nerd' backwards!). Brody fucks Dren, she dies, then comes back to life as a male (somehow), and rapes Polley, who becomes preggers.

It therefore should have been 5 minutes long, not 2 hours. Fuck.

Scumbag Philosopher

This band were nice enough to e-mail me, and I'm nice enough to post a video of them, so here it is. To me they sound like a cross between The Fall and Art Brut - the genre of post-art-punk? I'm quite digging this song, the lyrics are hilarious.

Embedding didn't work so just click here instead.

Official website is here, MyFace is here, support the artist, blah blah blah. But seriously, buy a single or something, mmkay?

!!! - Strange Weather, Isn't It? (2010)

I have never posted newly-leaked albums before, but my friend Chev (of Top Ten of 2009 fame) uploaded it for me, and it'll be a waste to not share it...or something. I've not even heard it yet - too caught up in the thrill of the leak - but Chev had this to say about it:

erm got it a few days ago its a beast, loving Jamie, My Intentions Are Bass


Nuff said. Enjoy.

The Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967)

The Stones' compilation Forty Licks is one of the few albums I can remember actually buying - I was sixteen, on a Univeristy open day in Cambridge (yeah, that turned out well...), and bought it from a Woolworths while exploring the city. Is this the Stones' best album? Debatable; they have so many great records. But this offering is nothing but amazing psychedelic rock. Enjoy.

MF DOOM - The Mouse & The Moustache EP (2010)

Some guy calling himself MF Borat (apparently Sacha Baron Cohen & Daniel Dumile, but I have my doubts) has remixed/reproduced or whatever a couple of MF DOOM tracks. Whatever the truth behind the story, this record is fucking incredible and that's all you need to know. I'm not patient enough to wait until the end-of-year Top Ten, so I'm sharing it with you now. Appreciate and enjoy.
