At Any Speed

Sam Cassidy used to be in a band called Shoreline. He might still be in a band called Shoreline, but the future is up in the air. At Any Speed is another outlet. Some new songs, some old songs, and an always unstable group of contributors.

I really, really miss this dude.

Flicks

This movie is so good. If you haven't seen it, I urge you to watch it. Family is fucked.

Also, this movie is obviously great, but have you seen this poster? I hadn't. Kevin used to watch this movie on the daily. I need to watch both of these again.

There are some cool posters over here. Hey look at me. I blog. Ryan Adams is claiming retirement. So is Morrissey. Fuckthatnoise. At least in Ryan's case. Morrissey can really do whatever the fuck he wants. He has a good argument. A thought just popped into my mind: now that he is putting out records and Johnny Marr is playing with Modest Mouse, I wonder if they have played at the same show ever. Like one of the big festivals. In fact, they might both be playing Coachella... but I'm not sure. That will probably be the closet thing we get to a Smith's reunion. Ever.

HOLY SHIT!

If you read this, like, ever, you know how much I love the National. Well, the two guitar players, who also happen to be brothers, have curated a compilation for an AIDS charity called Red Hot. It is called Dark Was the Night and will be available on 2/17 here in the states. The tracklisting is out of this world! I could go on and on about it, but ... fuck it, I will. There are new tracks from The National, Bon Iver, Grizzly Bear, Kevin Drew, Cat Power, Arcade Fire, and more. But wait. It gets better. Collaborations. Feist with the Griz! Feist with Ben Gibbard! Dirty Projectors and David Byrne! Antony and Bryce! And the one I am most excited for... Justin Vernon and Aaron Dessner! Holy shit! For those of you unfamiliar, that is the dude from Bon Iver and a dude from The National. That has the potential to be the best song ever! I may be over exagerating a bit, but it will rule nonetheless.
