Getting the band back together

I am loving this. SNL has been hit or miss the last few years but this had me laughing my ass of. Makes me want to dig out my old Black Flag records!

Die Antwoord




















Die Antwoord (Afrikaans: "The Answer") is a Zef-Rap band from Cape Town, South Africa consisting of Ninja, Yo-Landi Vi$$er and DJ Hi-Tek.

The band labels themselves as a mixture of many diverse cultures all mixed into one. An article in 'The Guide' explains more about the making of the band.

The band has signed with Netherlands music company Magnetron Music and is planning to tour Europe in April 2010. They announced via their website that they will be starting their tour, visiting France, Belgium, Amsterdam and London, sometime in April 2010.

Tracks from their upcoming album '$o$' are streamed on their official website.

Here is a video for their tune 'Ninja'.



I am loving this...it's wild! The beats are insane the the vocal back and forth between Ninja and Yo-Landi Vi$$er is funny and fits perfectly with the whole crunk/b-more vibe they have going one. Cheeky but very well done! This fits nicely in with M.I.A. and Santigold.

Definitely a band to watch in 2010.

The Flying Eyes


















If you ever wondered what Jim Morrison would be doing if he was still alive...wonder no more. He would be the lead singer of The Flying Eyes.

The Flying Eyes are a heavy, psychedelic rock band hailing from Baltimore, Maryland. Since they formed in 2007, the group has supported bands such as The Raveonettes, The Black Angels, Witch and Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys.

The Flying Eyes have also created an annual, home-grown music festival, "Farm Fest", in Manchester, Maryland. They will soon be releasing a full length compilation of their two EPs ("Bad Blood" and "Winter") on the German label Trip in Time/World in Sound Records.

The Flying Eyes (CD/LP) is now available for order in the US through Forced Exposure:
http://www.forcedexposure.com/artists/flying.eyes.the.html (it's expensive because it's an import, buy it directly from them if you can)

...and in Europe through Shiny Beast: CD:

The only video you'll ever see of Dan "The Automator" Nakamura and some Brazilian violist busting out a Stevie Wonder instrumental in some dude's office.
