It seems like theres going to be a ton of worthwhile music that's coming out soon. I just heard about three more cd's that will be out before years end that I am excited for.
Firstly, theres the new album from Sonic Youth The Eternal. Needless to say I'm excited about this, after their last attempt I am back on the SY bandwagon. As long as they stay with that recipe I won't be away, also I saw them with Pearl Jam in concert and it was amazing. As long as they stay with the old recipe of just going with a lo-fi stripped down guitar sound that they did on their last album I will be there to see them again.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club is currently recording a new album that is supposed to be out before the end of the year. This band has yet to disappoint me on one of their studio albums, though I was horrified though by their self released album last year though, and am wondering how they can outdo their last effort. Baby 81 was my favorite album of 2007 so I am on pins until this arrives.
Lastly I just heard from Pitchfork that Jarvis Cocker will be releasing his new album Further Complications May 19th. His last album was great, and some of the stuff that he did when he lead his previous band "Pulp" was remarkable. I just hope he can bring back some of the wittiness that he had on his last album. Anyway here is a real video from his last album. Enjoy.

A cool new Banksy
This may be desktop worthy. It's a little cooler than the nature pics I have from Costa Rica. I see that there appears to be a "Romany W.G" credit there but I am still going to credit it to Banksy anyway. If you google Romany WG it takes you to a different type of artist.

Tron 2.0
I honestly didn't think I would care about this at all. I wasn't a fan of the original film, Then I had seen a Nike commercial by Tron 2.0's director. The commercial itself was unappealing though it did show an interesting use of CGI. Needless to say that will be more than necessary in a Tron vehicle. Actually heres that commercial.
The real news though about this is that Daft Punk is reportedly going to do the soundtrack. When I heard that, this movie immediately became relevant. There really is no other option when you need a futuristic soundtrack.

It's the bitches that will get cha's!
Joe Pesci, what can the guy not do? The answer in short is nothing. He is one of the best actors of our time and anyone that disagrees will find their head in a vice. Cause as Joe would put it “Nobody pull’s the wool over a Gambini”. The first movie that I remember watching Joe in was Home Alone. Of course I was a kid and I wasn’t allowed to watch most of the types of movies he was in. He did however play a great role in that movie but it wasn’t until years later after watching Goodfellas for the 100th time that, I started to question how he could kill people so easily yet he couldn’t catch one little kid? He even had Daniel Stern the voice over actor for the Wonder Years helping out but the two of them could not catch that kid.
Never the less Joe is still a fine actor for his roles in Raging Bull in which he broke his nose sparing with my boy Bob DeNiro. In Goodfellas as the sick Tommy DeVito who killed Spyder (which by the way his whole family was rats and what was he going to do? Grow up to be a rat?) Also as everyone’s favorite friend Nicky Santoro in Casino, $100 who ever hits the plane.
Even with all these movie roles I don’t think anything is better then his music. I am talking specifically about his album “Vincent LaGuardia Gambini – Sings for you”. (This is the name of his character from My Cousin Vinny.) Watching and listening to him rap is awesome, the lyrics are even awesomer.
Now please watch the video below and take note that it is the bitches that will get cha’s.
Remember my favorite band from 2008
Heres their show from the Noisepop Festival from 2 days ago. Pretty good, though I'm a little against an unbroken youtube video that runs over 55 minutes. Also it was cool to hear some new songs. Now Banter.

From the one of the guys that brought you "Eastbound and Down"
Video NSFW this is the "red band" trailer
I'm not sure yet why they haven't advertised this movie with that tag-line yet. I honestly can't wait. This movie though looks very similiar to Eastbound. Both seem to deal with the "Hero" of american culture now. Plus it includes Danny Mcbride as some kind of gang member as well as up and coming comic actor Aziz Ansari. I would say that the only thing going against this movie is Seth Rogen. Seth Rogen really has become the "Lil Wayne" of movies. He just seems to be anywhere and is hurting himself by overexposure. Just unnecessary.
Also the fact that Anna faris is in it doesn't make it that bad either.I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that she is one of the sexiest actresses working that you never here anything about her. Seriously this broad has been in seemingly every other movie that comes out (26 credits this decade).
Also if anyone wants to hear the song from the second half of the trailer here it is.
