all you can eat bar-b-que chicken at fat jacks has put me flatly on my ass.

new dirty projectors album is on the way from domino. you can buy it on june 9th as a cd, vinyl record, or an old fashioned cassette tape. this is easily the summer release that i'm most looking forward to. sadly i can't offer any mp3 samples of the new new cause i've been depriving myself of that till i have my grubby little hands on the actual album.

here for the time being then is the video of a live thing they did a year or so ago in new york with their previous black flag cover album (above), and a track they did with david byrne for the dark was the night comp that came out a few months ago (below).

Dirty Projectors & David Byrne: Knotty Pine (4AD, 2009)

Released todays!!

Checkity Check out Paza Rahm's new albumsies, MEGATAC2. There's a Unicorn Dream Attack mixie wixie on there too, oh joys!



I love how incredibly dorky he managed to make himself for the album cover, considering how bad ass he looks in every other shot I have seen of him....

leave it to me to listen to the new DOOM album and end up posting a bunch of shit about bukowski as a result.



DOOM, who hasn't had an album out since 2004s MM..Food and who has been accused of passing off fake DOOMs as the real thing at his shows, is back, and his new album is actually pretty good! not as good as i think a lot of the reviews would have you believe, but pretty damn good overall once you get past the fact that a lot of the production is recycled beats.

whenever someone gets around to putting out a documentary about DOOM, i will thoroughly represent it, but until then, here's the trailer for the well-rounded bukowski flick that came out a while back.



ttlab has the best deal right now since they're in the midst of a %20 off everything sale which lasts till monday.

DOOM: Cellz (Lex Records, 2009)


DOOM: Gazzillion Ear (Lex Records, 2009)

homegirl has a new soderberg movie out, and seems to be on top of her game right now. i'm still not entirely certain how much of her taste in culture is real and how much is affected, but regardless, she is head and shoulders above my perceptions of many other "ladies of porn" excepting ms. mensa asia carrerra herself, though there is no word on carrerra's fave herzog flick yet (C'MON AGUIRRE!).

hearing a couple more or less break up on the public bus over the dudes desire to be a furry is a pretty effed up ordeal... i mean, the DUDE has to be HIMSELF, lady! you have to be down, or back it out.

UGK: International Players Anthem [ft. OutKast]

this is so deep, soulful and straight up honest.

fight back the tears y'all...

i want nothing more than to flail around drunkenly in a self-destructive fashion very very soon.



i have lost all hope for creatures like iggy pop to ever be birthed again in our world.

seriously summer. why you gotta make me do a thing?

This photo has been sitting open on my desktop for about a week now. Sorry for the slow delivery....

scorpion: hey girl i'm ugly (no idea what label, 1970)

these are making me want to break out my copy of the lester bangs reader and get drunk on shitty red wine while ornette coleman blorts the soundtrack out of my shitty secondhand speakers.

so this is how it goes. with regards to the getting super-fucked-up, my buddy ben has a line on shipping us some of the worst quality bum-wine the world has to offer.

wish i could get some moonshine up here for us. heh. might be able to work that out actually.

here's the third and sadly final issue of titty city. zipped jpegs, or pdf.



last year i ripped off the idea and printed off a few dozen copies of my own porno zine that i was calling lady madonna for no reason other than i think i was reading a beatles book at the time, and the it seemed an appropriate title for a collection of appropriated images of naked ladies.



hopefully in the next week or so i'll get the second issue of my selected porn snapshots out to the masses who are failing to clamor at my door for whatever reason.



the next order of business is to set up a picklesdickles gmail account so that there can be submissions. i think that we actually organized this at some point, but i can't remember the password i think. any ideas zita?

true story: in middle school i performed the final monologue thing for my drama class. it wasn't something i was forced into. i chose it cause it was my favorite movie of all time, and would be until i realized the error of my ways and placed jaws at the top of my list.

I wanna feel like this, with you

4 times out of 5 i call bullshit on yoko ono, and not for the retarded "oooh! she broke up the beatles!" bullshit. she might have catalyzed that whole implosion, but it was gonna happen regardless, and in fact, without her creating so much tension, .

regardless of my indifference to her art and double horrid attempts at what some might call singing, she gets an all time pass for this one thing she did way back when.

Yoko Ono: Walking On Thin Ice (1981 Re-Edit)

i cannot get enough arthur russell right now. to those unaware, he was an avante garde cellist who also happened to revolutionize the new york disco scene before dying of aids in 1992.





while he's known best for these ny loft party prime time records, it's the more subdued stuff that i cannot stop listening to.



there's a documentary out, and lots of crazy gorgeous stuff keeps getting unearthed, dusted off, and widely released by audika records.



Arthur Russell: This Is How We Walk On The Moon (Point Music, 1994)


Arthur Russell: I Couldn't Say It To Your Face (Audika Records, 2008)


Arthur Russell: That's Us/Wild Combination (Audika Records, 2004)

i'd post the trailer, but embedding has been disabled by request.

the cos' gettin a vibrator in his ear? sign me up!

if i'm not careful i'll start justifying all my images to center before too long...

i for one am looking forward to returning to my bone thugs

Bone Thugs N' Harmony: Ecstacy (Copy Remix)


Bone Thugs N' Harmony: Tha Crossroads (Copy Remix)


Bone Thugs N' Harmony: Thuggish Ruggish Bone(Copy Remix)


copy is the dude.

When we all get back home, can we just get shloshed, shiny, and naked?

pplleeeaaassseee??

Want to see more of Daddy Howard's bois?

how's that paper coming, zita? we're gonna rock a southern baptist style covered dish when you get back, right?

speaking of southern charms, i'm back below the mason-dixon for yet another wedding. catching up with friends over baskets of fried pickles in bars thick with hazy carcinogenic fog. not only can you smoke in the bars, but people representing the cigarette companies come around and give out packs (two at a time) in exchange for only your drivers license info and a smile. fine by me.



went to the penguin for those aforementioned pickles, hot dogs with homemeade chili and pimento cheese, as well as 5 dollar pitchers of yuengling.



Rufus Thomas: Do the Funky Penguin (pt. 1)(Stax, 1972)

Rufus Thomas: Do the Funky Penguin (pt. 2)(Stax, 1972)

when divshare goes back online sometime in the near future, you will have acces to these two retrofitted odes to barbecue, corndogs, and the plaza-midwood neighborhood in general.

this is sincerely one of my favorite pictures in the whole wide world. i saved the absolute best for last, and i refuse to back down on this claim.

the photo is apparently from a site called Southern Charms, which looks like a pretty awful cesspool of terrible filth, and not in the good way. if there're more than one image on a home page where i'm not sure if the model is pregnant or not, i'm gonna be slightly disinclined to buy into your set up, even if somewhere on the other side of that members area, this is waiting for me.



Bobby Jimmy & The Critters: Big Butt


not enough terrible music from bobby jimmy? well, here's some more!





thus ends butt week.

Check out this gem of a fortune city website that I found.

this is like how on jeopardy they give you the answer, and you have to ask the question.

Del Tha Funky Homosapien: What Is A Booty (Elektra, 1991)


del was here a couple of weeks ago, and i wasn't able to swing the ticket price, but get i wish my brother george was here if you haven't. that album was one of the catalysts for me getting into hip-hip. i had planned on posting a video of george clinton doing his live thing with this song, but it ended up being hell of depressing, so i cut it at the last second. find it if you want to remind yourself how the mighty have fallen.

Not all models voluntarily chose to be a part of Butt Week.

went to milwaukee to see animal collective last night. great show in a great venue with great people. i still can't believe i got a decently priced ticket from someone who wasn't a scalper.





after the show went to a bar that had a can of pbr, a shot of jamison and a single cigarette, all for 5 bucks, which i thought was awesome, followed up by one of the best gyros i've ever had in my life.

i've always thought that the dudes in the band looked like more or less like hackey sack playing frat guys than heralds of the new art music scene. i mean, they're basically becoming a jam band in a lot of respects... but maybe that's just me. way to go getting your technicolor kaos pad set-up on letterman, fellas!

Animal Collective: Summertime Clothes [Live From LA (9/18/2007)]


Animal Colelctive: Brother Sport [Live From LA (9/18/2007)]

i think my new favorite combination of words is "we interrupt your regularly scheduled butt week."

graduation presents from girlfriends are always awesome.



i can't wait to get my polish blue velvet poster framed.

as promised, issue numero dos of the supremely unfadeable titty city.



zipped up jpegs, or pdf. whichever suits your fancy.



they used to be less of a porny blog thing, and more of a get-the-zine-out-there sort of place. their new aesthetic kinda leans a bit more towards the high-school/college freshman myspace picture-in-a-mirror set, but there are more than enough artsy fartsy snaps to balance out the creeper factor.

on a slightly related note: are girls still taking pictures of themselves naked and actually thinking that it's not gonna eventually become internet fap material for greasy dudes around the world?



swing back through next hump day for the final ish.

Prince Paul: Booty Clap (Tommy Boy, 1996)


thugnificent's been ripping off prince paul for a while now, but then again, most everyone has i spose.

it's the pine trees that are doing it for me these days. my personal butt litmus test consists of whether or not i would want to (hypothetically) string up a lady by her butt parts and hang her from my (theoretical) rear view mirror.

The Carrie Nations: Look On Up At The Bottom


Look On Up At The Bottom - The Carrie Nations


this track is off of a compilation by a dude calling himself dj soul punk, and i have no idea where you would be able to get it. you can get some of his other really nice comps over at other music while the getting is good.

to bring you moar BMSR



I love youtube sometimes...

the first of five posts dedicated to presenting perfectly pronounced posteriors. not sure what prompted this, but enjoy it for what it is, ladies and gents, and never forget to live every day like it's big butt week.



Tribe Called Quest: Bonita Applebum (Jive, 1990)




seriously, you don't own peoples instinctive travels yet? really? i mean... really for real?

Blackmothsuperrainbow make a coolthing... and...

congratulations go out to chris ware and paperrad for finally having that baby they're always been talking about. i hope they ask me to be the godfather.

I can't wait.
