Beat the Devil..Freakin Sweet!

If you're already familiar with this short film then you'll probably agree with me. This is one of the coolest things I have seen since the first time I saw Pulp Fiction. It's only 10 minutes but well worth it.

...Albums You've Never Heard of..Earl Greyhound "Soft Targets"

Here's my latest entry for Greatest Albums You've Never Heard of Earl Greyhound...Soft Targets...this is the video for their first single.. S.O.S.


Earl Greyhound began with the collaboration of songwriters Matt Whyte and Kamara Thomas in the spring of 2002 in New York City. The pair began performing regularly as a duo on piano and guitar in NYC and Los Angeles that summer, during which they crafted the sound that would become the nucleus and essence of Earl Greyhound.

They expanded the act into a far louder guitar trio—Matt on lead vocals and guitar and Kamara on bass and backing vocals—with keen aim set on the sound of strident English rock bands from the likes of Queen and Bowie to Led Zeppelin and T.Rex. The trio’s live show soon exploded into a veritable rock and roll wrecking ball, swinging from melodious soul to gallant rock. Behind a leviathan drum kit, drummer Ricc Sheridan pounds out thundering interwoven beats in the tradition of John Bonham and Billy Cobham’s Mahavishnu—and in appearance, uncannily reminiscent of Hendrix-era Buddy Miles.

The interplay of Matt and Kamara’s singing is mesmerizing, “often invoking the spirit of Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris” (Village Voice). With the release of their self-titled EP on Some Records in October 2004, Earl Greyhound began an extensive tour of the US to prepare for the recording of their self-produced debut full-length Soft Targets (release date 10/03/06) in Los Angeles. The tour concluded with an invitation to support Soundtrack of Our Lives at The Troubadour in LA.

Soft Targets was recorded in LA at Westbeach Recorders (FleetwoodMac, Pink Floyd) and finished back home in New York in January 2006. The band is at work preparing their next record and playing shows on the northeast corridor before they head out this fall to support the release of their full-length debut. Soft Targets is one of the most important releases of 2006, a impressive foundation for a band set to make a major impact on the musical landscape.

FARK.com: (2598062) Parts of NY could get up to 100 inches of globally-warmed snow. That's a one with two zeroes

Searching YouTube Videos

We watch alot of YouTube videos around here. Some are absolutely horrible and some are abso-fuckin-lutely horrible. Finding the video you are really looking for can be a real pain in the ass. Since every 12 year old schmuck in the universe has figured out that adding a bunch of porn-spam-tags to the description of his nose picking Vlog will earn him views (even if there's no real traffic there) it can be hard to search out content you'd really want to watch. Enter PodZinger, the site that enables keyword searches within audio and video podcasts, now lets you search inside YouTube videos as well. This came to us in the GReader from Lifehacker.....

Now besides simply searching on the metadata of the video files, you can search for terms that are actually mentioned inside the audio, allowing for a greater likelihood you will find relevant material.

I don't have any clue yet if the product really works but i can tell you this...if the gang at Lifehacker put it up it ain't too shabby. They rarely miss. So if you listen to lots of Podcasts, or you're just wondering if there are YouTube videos out there that mention you by name, give PodZinger a try and see what's out there.

Blu-ray vs HD-DVD / VHS or Betamax? Warner Total HD

CNET - The NY Times is reporting that Warner Bros. plans to announce a new Hi-Def, single videodisc that can play both Blu-ray and HD DVD.

Just like the good old format wars between VHS and Beta, Blu-ray, backed by Sony and HD DVD, backed by Toshiba and Microsoft launched competing products. The whole thing has pissed off tons of movie lovers, and made for really slow Hi Def video and player sales. (It's also created a nauseating amount of posts just like this one about who will win the "format wars") You may have spent big bucks on that Big screen HD tv but how many people dropped $1200+ on a Blu-Ray or HD DVD player?

Warner Bros. seems to be saying that everyone should win, by putting both formats on a single disc. Only problem I see with this is its logical and corporations detest logic. particularly the fuck ups at Sony, Toshiba (I have a Toshiba Pocket PC - Thanks DJGreggieC! and believe me they can ass rape a consumer but good) and Microsoft(I have two words for you Vista EULA).

Shit get worse when you start to look at who has already chosen sides. these aren't rinky din little piss-ant companies. These are the big boys who tell us everything from what's cool to how to dress. In

Blu-Ray only companies are- MGM, which is part owned by Comcast , 20th Century Fox, a division of the News Corp. and Walt Disney Pictures.

HD-DVD only-Universal Studios, which is owned by General Electric,

Warner and Paramount Pictures, owned by Viacom, are using both formats.

Much of this bull shit has more to do with console gaming than it has to do with the actual movies themselves. The PS3 (Sony) has Blu-Ray built into it and Xbox 360 (Microsoft)just issued a shiny new add-on HD drive.

As you can see these companies have alot to gain, and alot to lose if their own format of choice isn't the eventual winner. Personally the only way I am buying any of this shit is if I end up with a PS3 by some miracle. the movies are over-priced and eventually everything will be available on broadband for viewing on demand.

Pretty cool...I must find out more.... for now just enjoy
