RVTZTVX-BLKGVRLC

From deep within the Emerald Triangle comes some seriously weeded the fuck out sounds most appropriate for Auto-erotic asphyxiation sessions, Ouija board sleepovers, hash-oil dipped newports....and other activities all us crazy motherfuckers in 2011 have been dabblin in. Identity right now is on the hush hush, but I'm expecting a full takeover imminently RVTZTVX - NOZ OUND by rvtztvx_BLKGVRLC OUT NOW

LOCALS ONLY!!!

Fuck yeah !! summer is almost here and its time to pick up your 'Merican cape and a motorcycle and break a leg or an arm (literally do it, break that fucker). The world was supposed to end May 21st but i guess that didn't happen because were still here and you're reading this shit, so that's good... or is it?? Naaaah its good, the swap meet is still open and Psilocybin is still as killer as ever. tomorrow will be my first psychedelic experience in almost 2 years now, the last one was a little drug some call 5-MEO-DMT otherwise known in some circles as super acid bobby hill dmt freak show. To this day I am followed around by a giant jewel encrusted panther bigger than a 1-ton van and resembling lady death better than any image I have seen since. I know change is looming, whether that be death, war, incarceration, or a personal hell that I created for myself by twangin' and wailin' on the whammy bar too much, or going to the suburbs too much to kick it with a bunch of rich white girls, or spending every last dime at stadium market on Nick's juice. To the future we all march! It never ends, it never ceases we just march forth into the New America, the Real America, Freak America!! Wish me luck fellow Psychenauts!

THE 4TH IS FASTLY APPROACHING HOW ARE YOU GOING TO CELEBRATE?? BLOW SHIT UP? BURN SHIT DOWN? CAST SPELLS ON YOURSELF AND HUFF PAINT? GO TO THE SUBURBS AND EAT PILLS AND DUST? SMOKE DUST ? GO TO SPACE? ALL OF THE ABOVE I SAY...

oh and the top pictures are as follows.

Rubba Band Business Pt. 2

Alright alright Juicy J has been doing it hard as of the last two or so years and Lex Luger has taken the world by storm with his steroid-times-a-million-crunk-on-elm street-super-future shit. No lie I love Lex Luger it's damn near perfect in my mind. Now, it's not like they have done anything they didn't do on the last one, and I can understand how some might get old of Juicy J's modus operandi. Which literally is Weed, Pills, Pussy and Guns ONLY over and over and over and over again. Surely not for everyone, but before you hate, throw this in the best car stereo system you have access to and bomb down the highway with a car full of friends and tell me it doesn't do the damn trick. For all those who have ignored Three Six Mafia since their television show, grammy, and LolliPop song I would advise you to check out the last couple of Juicy J mixtapes, not gonna speak so much for DJ Paul but Juicy J is on some next shit, as far as 'trap music' he's definitely perfected the method. I picked it up off DatPiff but there are other mixtape sites with it up....WE TRIPPY MANE

Gal, Ohs

When I first saw the trailer for M. Night Shamylyan's The Village.....I figured it was gonna turn out something like this.....man o man it gives me a bad taste in my mouth, but Im also wondering if they may have been as into Avonlea as much as I was as a kid

Yes, One Million Times

doooooooooooood

Singles of Note

Weed Hounds-Skating Away From The Cops 7"

Hell yeah two-songs that are super-potent, couldn't get enough of this band, the demo is great too but I really like the way they produced these tracks not too hot not too cold if you know what I mean. The songs are great, would you run away if I told you they reminded me of "Isn't Anything" MBV? You can call me lazy, but don't discount the band. They are set to drop a full-length in the next coupla months and I can't wait.



The Pains Of Being Pure of Heart-Say No To Love 7"

Even though I've slowly been coming to the conclusion it ain't healthy to listen to all this spoon-my-heart-out/fatalist/uber-romance shit all the time I still have to give it up to these doods, it's just too pretty too well crafted. The secret hater in me can't wait till this band screws up so I can just hate on em but it's probably not gonna happen cuz they have a pretty damn consistent track-record of purrrfection. On a related note: When is Mac gonna come out with filters for your eyes, fuck rose-colored glasses, I want super 8 lenses.Say No To Love



Veronica Falls-Beachy Head 7"

Well I am getting a little miffed(that's british right?) that there hasn't been a full-length yet, or a deluge of singles....just a slow slow trickle it's all gold though I guess that's the trade-off. I heard somewhere this song is about a famous place to kill yourself, now that's goth and they didn't even need to bury it under a mile of white-noise. But on another note, has there ever been one sunny day in all of England's existence? Catch the Wave



Wild Nothing-Evertide Ep

Welp no surprise here I been jocking this band too damned hard lately. I don't even have words for this one too good too good. jock on



Balam Acab-See Birds

I think you could call Balam Acab rookie of the year, he came out of nowhere and pretty much won the hearts of all, he pulls more emotion out of machines than most can out a slew live instruments, and they are covered in gorgeous texture. Unlike witch house which he might be unfairly asscociated with he doesn't leave you feeling desperate or scared, mostly fulfilled and renewed and shit positive like that. See Birds



Ikonika-DCKHDBTCH

A lot of times I am really disappointed by dubstep, but really it's just that it's gotten so big now that it has gone in a million different directions. And unfortunately the directions leading to the general mindless herds are the ones most popular. Thankfully guys like Joker, Hudson Mohawke, and Nosaj Thing are still pushing boundaries and right up there with them is Ikonika. Her drums are pretty simple kinda cheap sounding, but she throws the most bonkers ass melodies over it, after a minute they just start to work on you, then her super woozy basslines start to take effect, it's real cool. This isn't the best introduction to her music but it is definitely solid.



Zomby-One Foot Ahead of The Other

Zomby definitely fits into the above-mentioned category of people not being content with the definition of dubstep the mindless are trying to impose on the rest of us. I don't know much about electronics or sequencers so I can't really say what he's doing, it sounds analog and complex to me. Actually I think this ep has more in common with Wendy Carlos than Bassnectar. It surely satisfies my brain in ways simillar to Switched On Bach.



White Ring/oOoOO-Emotion 7"

This whole genre is inevitably gonna get a whole bunch of flack but good music remains good music and this seven inch is good music. You shouldn't have to apologize for like DJ's Paul and Screw as well Portishead and Burzum it's fucking 2010 ya heard? Let em do their thang thang. And besides the clever genre tag isn't it really just cold wave or goth or whatever? I think sometimes people lose perspective and can't appreciate something cool when it's crawling like Ju-On across the floor.EmOtiONaL



oOoOO-EP

Yeah other than Salem I think these guys have got the most bankable catalog at the moment, NoSmmr4U is a certified banger.Did I mention the Pokerface Remix?

Keep Ruling Violently

schools out thank the gods, another semester fumbled

Hell yeah in the next coming weeks there will be a couple vinyl releases brought to you by the homies, on saturday the mighty VIOLENT RULER will be dropping their first full length, SWELLING THE MORGUE. In fact if MO woke up he should be fucking around with transparencies and diddlin' with layouts as I write. the release party is on SATURDAY in Reno at Jub Jubs Thirst Parlor. As it stands I don't know any information on pre-ordering and all that but I'll pass it along once it's passed along to me...
For the woefully uninitiated VIOLENT RULER is hands-down the best metal act in Reno, taking the best parts from 80's splicing it with the best of the 90's, then they smother it with drugs and let it bleed. In other words they are top-notch Thrash Metal unit that make bands like Toxic Holocaust look like a cheap after-school special in comparison. But don't take my word for it you can check out six songs right below. They also are in the process of recording some other other shit so yeah be on the lookout for that as well. I've also heard rumours of a West Coast tour this year, don't wanna give too much away, but itll more than likely beINFAMOUS, and it might get RAINY and they might take a Pro-wrestler with them....anyways keep your ears and eyes open.

Violent Ruler DEMOlition

Ham Ratchet JCAT

Cupla posts back Austinian mentioned Die Antwoord Harmony Korine and Lil Boosie in the same sentence. Im gonna chalk that down as one of my November highlights. Anyways got me to thinkin about the Boos, I honestly wastn't sure if he was ever going to get any real attention thrown at him, because those in the know can clearly see that the dude has bona fide skills. Any youtube comment list you read will have some talk about him being the next Pac. Hmmmm that whole conversation is kinda, "eh" but it got me thinking, first I had to construct a "2Pac" in my head and distill his importance cross-referenced and translated into a form(a sort of mental rubrick if you will) that I could compare Lil Boosie too. Once I did that, I found that indeed Lil Boosie fulfilled my arbitrary and completely baseless expectations of 2Pac. But unfortunately the type of people who are good at identifying Lil Boosie's greatness are not usually given much clout in any form, maybe least of all in the music-journalists world. But we shall see we shall see.



But then there is the other impending and faaaar more bleak reality that he is currently facing 6 muder 1 charges and could very well be the first Rapper to be executed. When keeping it real goes wrong? Or should we entertain the idea that the powers to be might not like a Boosie type popular in the world. Well, of course the powers to be don't like the idea of Lil Boosie, but to the extent that they would orchestrate some way of blacklisting him like this....that's hard to imagine.



Now I fully realize that there is some (probably large) percentage of the Boosie character that is completely made-up. But it certainly was not made in a vacuum. Just as Captain America didn't ever decapitate a red skulled Nazi-type, but it is definitely coming from somewhere, so too does some element of Lil Boosie really exist in our world. But are people really listening to what he has to say? and thinking about what it all means? probably not, but just do a comparison between the homespun wisdom of rappers like Rakim and Big Daddy Kane, and then think about the life-philosphy of the new-school, it's not that the new school is dumber or meaner per se. It's just that the situation they are reflecting is probably far grimmer.



But honestly put yourselves in the position of an old-timey white sheriff or D.A. in some shit parrish in the south, over your life-time you too have seen the degradation of your way of life and your base of power, and out of the woodwork comes these twacked out, bug-eyed, homocidal maniacs flashing guns and money and throwing a middle finger to your whole world. Speaking for myself it would be coonin' time for sure.



But what do you do? Sit on the side and try and wipe yourself clean from the mess and throw admonishments and call it macaroni? or do you say fuck it and get knee deep in the muck and bask in the evil surrounding you? I'm not too sure, on the whole I don't think the kind of shit these guys are saying is really constructive or beneficial long-term. But I can't deny that I like it, and indeed love all the robbin' mobbin' shootin' and lootin'. I feel like I can separate good fantasy from the reality we live in and extract what should be extracted and leave the rest, but I don't really trust the next man to be able to do the same....hmmm problems without answers

Demons of the Static Age

Word has it that with super high bit-rates this video appears to be more than it is...I haven't actually been able to watch it yet, and certainly not download and watch it proper, high and defined, but yeah check this shit out. No lie I've listened to this song more than any other in the last couple of months(beating out Joanna Newsom, Big Boi, Isobel Campbell...that is one large feat). While static is an interesting medium, they really need to get someone with a Carpenter/Kubrick aesthetic up on their videos and start churnin' out the new DARK...you can pick up a super Fidelic version of the video somewhere on this website but not entirely sure how...how helpful

We Out Chea Evil Boi

Affinity is a weird thing. It's somewhere between intuition on one side and rational thought on the other. Something like taste in the middle. Reminds me of a dream I'm going to have. Suffice to say, Harmony Korine and Die Antwoord are doing a short film this week in Nashville propelled by Lil Boosie? ! ! !


spin:

What American hip-hop have you've been getting into lately?
Well, we're making a short form movie with [Kids writer] Harmony Korine and he started playing me Lil Boosie's video "We Out Chea." It's pretty fuckin'….I've never seen something like that. They all look cooked in the video. It looks like there's something wrong with all their eyes and Harmony told me they all drank cough medicine.

inmusic:

"We're making a short film with Harmony Korine in a few weeks time. He sent me this gangsta rap music of these videos of these gangsta rappers in the Deep South. And I kind of understood Die Antwoord a little bit more after watching them. They all drink that cough mixture or something [drank] and they're all like f**kin wired and stuff. And I was watching these gangsta rappers and I didn't know what the f**k they were saying and I kind of got it. It reminded me of Die Antwoord. They're in this f**kin zone. It's the only thing I've seen in a long time that reminded me of Die Antwoord."

pitchfork:

We're doing a short film in a few weeks time with Harmony Korine that will screen at the Rotterdam Film Festival this January. [Korine] wrote the script and we made it a little more Zef. It's come out fuckin' wild. It's a short film called Wat Kyk Jy-- which means "watcha lookin' at?"-- which I tattooed onto my penis as well.

and this is what ninja says about his raps:

I'm rapping about finding boobs and stuff. And black magic and like stealing money.

Bathe in the Obscene

Happy Halloween everybody. I must say this year I am feeling the call of the ultra-violent and grotesque more than other years. Which is perfect because Brotha Lynch Hung signed to Strange Music, Tech 9's label. Now some of the more ignorant and uninformed might not see how any part of that story could be tight. But Brotha Lynch is one of the best that ever did it, and Tech 9 is definitely on the up and up, and I think it shows real character that he would extend a hand to Lynch in the midst of all his success....it's real good for Lynch because he has the most potential for exposure and all that than probably any point in his career. I feel he sees this oppurtunity and on his Strange Music debut he laid it the fuck down. Mark my words if you take all the shitty skits out
Dinner and A Movie' is one doozy of an album. I think that when Brotha Lynch raps about depression he is unequaled in ability to elaborate on the sickened mind. And as for the cannibal shit. well well well. I could intellectualize about what cannibalistic fantasies says about our culture. shit, you and i could intellectualize about anything in the world we wanted, but im gonna leave it short. If you are a fan of horror movies, than there is no way you can't like Brotha Lynch. you know "nuts, and guts and slabs of human meat motherfucker" if that doesnt excite your mind than we are different people and should stay to our different ways, that is fine. But I tell you, if you like Horror, then Dinner and a Movie is essential. And in the spirit of Halloween I will share a link to a new mixtape, I haven't had the chance to listen to it, so I can't quality control but it's a Strange Music affair and Im gonna assume that is a stamp of quality, and it's called Silent Supper so there is no question as to what the content is gonna be. Like I said, happy halloween. Boo!

"i went to parties and saw kids get around black lights!!"

tryin something new, i made this pouch for whatever you may want,(weed pipe, sage, 40oz, tiny-bong, etc.etc.) the painting is untitled show far, ill be showing stages of it and all the backseat insiders footage where they show you all the shit not seen in theatres or stores. the 2 larger panels are 24x30 and the smaller is 8x24, medium is acrylic, enamel, spray paint, gouache, pen and ink, also human blood is mixed in with the red lining you see. just taste it, it's salty. next up is a painting of the famous "The Pine" market. a real blast from the past up your ass roller coaster ride back to yesteryear. hopefully by christmas ill have all my work ever done in a digital format where you can actually see details etc.

"Get the hell off that jet-ski, Blonde Ambition Tour!"

just some ideas, super high on this shit called "blue dream" i highly recommend it. Sierra Nevada has a new beer out its 30th anniversary Bock. that too is also i recommend. much better than bud light with lime and clamato. all reno all white trash event inspired works. from the birds and the bees, fly honeys and the love of it all. oh yeah with a little bit of Gummo mixed in but still, its one in the same. get some head, smoke some weed look at some drawings, do some drawings but still. the canvas witht the bat is called "Circus, Circus" and is a tribute to austin pratt, all the colors i used were lifted from an earlier painting austin did and gave to me, . it was almost 50 individual colors. the two brown, black , red pieces are my favorite so far.

Which House?

The Flaming Lips famously stated, "Finally the punk rockers are taking Acid", I would like to say, "Finally nerdy computer geeks are taking cough syrup". If they were ever to accurately remake a classic horror film(mostly Nightmare on Elm Street) The opening shot would be a descending aerial view of a sleepy neighborhood that slowly descends on to one open upstair window....this song would be playing and their would be choppy cuts of an underwater scene and maybe some stock owl footage spliced in there really artfully. Plus that guitar solo sounds ripped straight from David Gilmour's hands circa 1983.

The Ballad of Colton Harris-Moore

NPR
A teen bandit from the small Washington island of Camano has been on the run for 20 months and is being touted as a modern-day Jesse James. Police say the young outlaw is an amateur criminal — but a master escape artist.

The last time authorities had Colton Harris-Moore in custody was in April 2008. At that point, he was serving time in a halfway house for youth offenders, just south of Seattle. He'd been convicted of theft and possession of stolen property.

It was bed-check and he was in his pajamas. But soon after the nightly routine, he climbed out a second-story window and into the night.

Since then, the now-18-year-old fugitive has eluded police in Washington, Idaho and Canada, repeatedly vanishing into the woods. Police suspect he's stolen at least two planes, two boats and several cars, plus broken into more than 50 homes. Yet the only thing growing faster than Harris-Moore's alleged rap sheet is his legend.

Lawless But Loved

"I don't understand it, myself," says county sheriff Mark Brown. He bristles at the mention of Harris-Moore's exploding popularity.

"Reasonable people would not want to idolize somebody or sensationalize somebody who's a thief," he says.

Harris-Moore is wanted in five counties on multiple charges. But 10 of those charges are in Harris-Moore's hometown of Camano Island — Brown's jurisdiction.

Over the years, police say Harris-Moore has evolved from a petty thief stealing food and blankets, to what he is today — a convicted felon on the run.

During a recent appearance on a local Seattle radio show, Harris-Moore's mother, Pamela Kohler, said she has no idea where her son is hiding.

"And I like it like that, because that way I don't have any information to give to the police," she said.

Kohler says she's writing a book about her son's exploits. She plans to use the profits to open an animal shelter for abused pets, something she says her son had dreamed of doing. Kohler also claims he's a genius.

"He took an IQ test a few years ago and he's three points below Einstein," she says. "And if he flew those planes without lessons. I am very, very proud."
But he's not a boy only a mother can love. He has a growing legion of fans — and not just locally. Harris-Moore's fame reaches far beyond the small Puget Sound community where he is accused of invading homes and stealing credit cards. Feelings about Harris-Moore run the gamut from locals who are tired of the story — and of answering reporters' questions — to fierce fans enamored with the growing myth.

People have even written songs. The lyrics to "The Ballad of Barefoot Harris" read, "But he'd never hurt a fly, and he'd never kill a man, and he never will be found."

Fans as far away as Greece, Italy and Australia extend open-door invitations through the magic of Facebook. To date, there are more than 16,000 members of a fan page for Harris-Moore.

Girls, taken by his almond-shaped blue eyes, beg him to visit their homes and offer to be his girlfriend. Guys mock the law enforcement agencies who have failed to capture the 6-foot-5, 210-pound teen.

Aidin Stephens is also rooting for the runaway. And not just because Stephens sells T-shirts bearing Harris-Moore's picture for $15 each.

"Being good doesn't really get you very far," Stephens says. "It's a kind of a sucker's swindle."

"There's haves and have-nots in the world, and whether he's a mastermind or not, he obviously was never going to have the kind of opportunities that some people might have to have a Mercedes or to be a pilot," Stephens says. "I mean, it's an expensive hobby to have an airplane."

Legend's End Still Up In The Air

Nobody knows that better than Bob Rivers, whose plane was worth $150,000. That was before Harris-Moore allegedly stole it — then then totaled, it.

It took police almost a year to link Rivers' 4-seater Cessna to the wanted teen. But despite their assertions, Rivers, a Seattle host for CBS Radio, is not entirely convinced Harris-Moore is really responsible. And he's reluctant to add to the fugitive's growing legend.

"There's a saying in aviation: There are old pilots and there are bold pilots, but there are no old, bold pilots," Rivers says. "Colton has clearly done some bold things, but could he learn to fly on the Internet and then crash-land several planes in a row, in rugged terrain, and walk away each time without a scratch?"

The story — if true — is what makes Harris-Moore's life the stuff movies are made of. Just last month, a documentary film crew landed on Camano Island to interview locals. A slew of production companies are courting Kohler for access to her son.

Of course, this isn't a movie. With each new crime that's attributed to the teen, the stakes get higher and the potential for a dangerous confrontation increases. Authorities and Harris-Moore's mother are hoping for the least cinematic ending — the one where the 18-year-old quietly turns himself in.

What the Buck

The level people are taking popping and locking to these days is just nutty. It reminds me of the shit Pharoah's would have in their royal courts. The kind of stuff europeans would go back home and make up tales of black magic and pacts with the devil over. This shit can fuck up a lesser man's whole sense of reality. Camera's can't even catch all the frame rate, it's fucked up.

Making Fear Reality

This band is one of my favorite finds of the year. They contacted me earlier this summer about a show, and within 30 seconds of checking 'em out I knew that I was in for a treat. It was really one of the only shows that I've booked this year and was actually stoked to see. In my opinion THIS is American black metal. That's just me though. Anyways what you have here is extremely abrasive loud rock n roll. Simple as that. They put on a great show, and are great dudes too. Here's a sevey...
