Lame political references to the Smiths makes me feel pretty dang old...

Norm

8Clip linked me up to this sweet piece about Norm. Big fan of his Bay Area graf. Used to be Grime's apprentice and has links to the SoCal hardcore scene. always dug his graf and tattoos. Best thing about this piece is him making his own tattoo guns. Sick.

Austin Comp

Heard Matador's Austin compilation? Not exactly a Chaos set, more indie (again, Matador)... but not a bad collection... includes Bad Sports, Harlem, Love Collector...

Yeah, it's a tired line, but...

Voices

That "Gimme Shelter" vocal track from Merry Clayton (who does Brooksy's fave cover of the song) still has me reeling. Started digging back into some old shit, and have gotten stuck on Roy Orbison. Fuck, nice to rediscover him once in a while...still some of the best pipes ever.

Particularly love this early demo version of "Claudette" with him by himself...complete with a fuck-up in the middle. Then the live version of "Candy Man"...that harmonica almost steals the show. Gotta love the simplicity, and the talent.

Shit, what would the rest of us do without distortion pedals and the like? We'd have to actually be good.
