Subterranean wasn’t on last week. I’m not sure why. I was concerned it had been cancelled because MTV2 has gone through an image shift and it’s not for the better. MTV2 now has a ridiculous 2-headed dog as a logo and it sits, not transparently, in the bottom right corner of every video. The old [...]
I was crawling through the archives over at kottke, and I ran into this post of his from May of 1999: “Is this a weblog? I don’t think it is. It’s more of a diary/jotpad for my thoughts. Sometimes I include links, sometimes not. If I don’t link, how can this be a weblog? Maybe [...]

This is another reason the internets are cool. Paperback Believer is a very, very clever mashup of The Monkees “I’m a Believer” with the Beatles’ “Paperback Writer”. There’s a video but it’s only okay. Good idea, though. [Torr again]
This is why bands and artists still need to make videos. I had no idea who Saul Williams was until I saw his video for “List of Demands (Reparations)” on Subterranean a couple of weeks ago. Now I am an official fan. Thanks to a certain “special someone” I happened across a copy of the [...]
