MBV

After 22 years, My Bloody Valentine finally release their 3rd album, m b v.  No one else makes music like this, well worth checking out.  If the first listen doesn't resonate with you, give it a few more chances.  There is so much going on in one track that it takes a while to process, but when it all comes together, just imagine Christopher Walken saying "Wow!"  Link to the track "new you" below.

DOOM aka MF DOOM aka Viktor Vaughn aka King Geedorah

Been listening to a lot of DOOM lately (all caps).  This guy is a prodigy: rhymes, creativity, vocabulary, obscure references.  What other artist can change his name every album or send body doubles to perform at his concerts and still be successful?  If you want to check out his back catalog, do a google on Viktor Vaughn or King Geedorah.  If you want to go back to the beginning, try KMD (he goes by the name Zev Love X).

Take Me To Your Leader
DOOM uses some really unorthodox samples.  Check out this link to see how he sampled G-Force ("Gatchaman" in Japan) for one of the tracks off of Take Me To Your Leader.

KNUE Movies

Over the years, the instructors at KNUE have created short movies to show to trainees after their skit performances.  I've included links to some of them here.  If you're the type of person who enjoys B-movie weirdness, check it out.  And I make no apologies for wearing a horse mask in Loser Rap Stars.  I had a vision.

 Loser Rap Stars
Colin, August, Reggie and I tried to make a coherent movie about 3 homeless weirdos who are transformed into Hip Hop royalty.  This video accomplishes one thing: destroying any hopes of a career in politics for all involved.

The Language of Terror
Malcolm directs and produces this slasher movie.  I think the script was written by Nicole.  Some quality acting in this one, a real star vehicle.

Team Spirit
Malcolm directing again.  Probably my favorite of the movies we've worked on.  This really captures the petty rivalries and infighting that happen on a day to day basis at KNUE.  I keed, I keed.

Shaving Teacher Brian
This one is especially gonzo.  Brian absolutely nails his role as an English instructor turned Al Qaeda operative.  And the whole "Fart Blocker" scene, not my idea.

Jack White and Conan

Jack White and Conan discuss Catholic guilt, art, and technology.  Also, chain smoking and drinking.

You're not in ur twenties anymore...


Next year, I'll try a skullet (for those who don't know: balding on top + mullet in the back).
