Watch
Sen. Ron Wyden finally breaks the media silence on the proposed internet censorship acts that lobbyists are trying to silently push through on Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
Keith and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) review the Stop Online Piracy Act and the Protect IP Act, bills that claim to fight online piracy but are actually more likely to end up killing commerce and freedom of speech. Wyden,...

I agree with the above ^^^ very...

WatchGrimes - Oblivion
Sounds killer live, but I kinda like wish I didn’t like hear her talk before she like started playing. Too cruel? No matter, I’ll pardon on the assumption that she was super nervous. Regardless the new album will be best in 2012. For sure.

WatchLee Noble - Parents
Ghastly, ghoulish, gorgeous.
His new video is all of the above, what a tease to be releasing it after its long gone. Apologies if you missed out on Lee Noble’s OOP Horrorism LP, but it was Ltd to 300 copies from Bathetic, and gone pretty early on. But never fear maybe you can grab a copy from good ol’ discogs after the fact.
More from Bathetic:

WatchFear of Men - Doldrums
Damn I was already psyched for the new Fear of Men 7” I recently posted and now I find out about a simultaneous cassette release. I unfortunately got clued into the addictively sweet tunes from these kids long after their first cassette was gone, so I’m glad to see I caught this one. Has a very Broadcast/Twin Sister vibe if you’re into either of them.

WatchFear of Men - Ritual Confession
Absolutely loving this new 7” single from Fear of Men. Recently stumbled upon these guys late to the game to pick up a copy of their recent OOP cassette on Sex Is Disgusting. It was a ridiculously short run all of 50 cassettes. Come on, I feel like any release under 100 is just a tease.
Of course if I had gotten one of the 50 I’d be all about it.

WatchEla Orleans - Black and White Flight
Totally did not realize that Ela Orleans had a new full length out soon (like this week!!) Her recent split with Dirty Beaches was fantastic. Much as I love DB, I think her side shines through as the slightly brighter gem.
Update: also didn’t realize this release was Ltd to 300 copies. I guess I wasn’t behind on this one seeing as I just the...
