Giveaway No. 4 and plan to takeover the universe

Up for grabs this round, is a pair of Skullcandy “Smokin’ Buds.” Although I think the name of this model is a bit kitschy, I think that Skullcandy makes some quality products.

La Musica Coolica #102 (Radiohead [again])

As everyone surely knows by know, Radiohead recently released a new album after taking a break for a few years. I giddily downloaded the album from the RH site as soon as it was available.

Before I ever really heard much of their music, I was completely captivated by the whole Joy Division-New Order Kineckt. Stories about suicidal rock stars are easy for teenagers … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #99 (Joy Division)

La Musica Coolica #98 Guest Post (Stretch Arm Strong)

Maybe one day I should make a mix tape of power tunes. You know the ones? The ones that kind of help you get through those times when you wish you could write a song, but then you found somebody who expressed what was on your mind a little better than you thought anyone else … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #98 Guest Post (Stretch Arm Strong)
