Oh, hello there.
Welcome to our new website - which is, coincidentally, a Tumblr blog as well. It is extremely (extremely) “web 2.0-friendly” which means you can do all of the usual Tumblr stuff but also read our bio, contact us, listen to our music, and a bunch of other things I can’t think of right now. Enjoy!

hooray for radical dads! we played with them for the third (i think?) time last week, and they were raucous and wonderful. what a bunch of charmers. great video, too. yvynyl: Radical Dads - Recklessness I post this because not only is this Brooklyn band’s single, erm, radical, but this video gets me all nostalgic for the days when I was an angsty teenager that would hit tennis balls against a...

FILM: Tavet Rubel’s PIZZA (2010) After more than a year of futzing around, my good friend Tavet finally completed his masterpiece: a batshit brilliant piece of short film-making called PIZZA. It’s about a guy who eats a piece of pizza and then… well, you kind of have to watch it and see. I was honored to compose the score and contribute a few pieces of ARMS music to...

Hear Neil Young Debut 5 New Songs Live
my favorite melancholy snow-monkey. twentyfourbit: As any longtime Neil Young worshiper could tell you, a Shakey tour isn’t always a “greatest hits” event, and his latest, a 13-city jaunt with Bert Jansch dubbed Twisted Road, is no different. Sure, Young has been adorning his sets with “Cinnamon Girl,” “Down by the River,” “Ohio,” “Helpless,” “Cortez the Killer,” and other choice tunes from his...

hypem: dogandponyshow: 1. Plug the thing in. I’m no technical wiz, but I’ve noticed that electric things always work better plugged in. 2. Wash your hands. You play better with clean hands. 3.

this is just a really damn original idea for a video. guy just wants to be by himself! look how happy he is when everybody’s gone. and then he goes and punches a dog. way to go, tame impala, for being both an excellent proggy/psychy band, and having the wherewithal to make this sweet video.
