Treasure

I'm too distracted today to say anything about Treasure except that this song rules:

Treasure - Canada

Also, the video (starring Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee) is surprisingly romantic:

Baths

I'm too "meh" today to say anything about Baths except that this song rules:

Baths - Hall

Beach Fossils

This is my favorite album so far of 2010. There have been a lot of good leaks so far this year, but nothing comes close to this one. So there you have it! Now you don't even have to read the Pitchfork review when it comes out a month from now. You're welcome!

Beach Fossils - Daydream

Beach Fossils - Twelve Roses

Beach Fossils - Youth

Self-Titled LP out on Captured Tracks May 25th

Bad Lieutenant (Film)

It's a rare occassion when both the original and the remake of a film are both equally fucking good, and this just happens to be one of those cases. I remember when I first saw the original Bad Lieutenant starring Harvey Kietel at about the age of 10 (props to my big brother for being an eternal bad influence!). It just happens to be way more graphic and disturbing than the new version with Nicholas Cage, and I remember feeling like I wasn't really sure what was going on, but whatever it was, it was very, very bad.

Wernor Herzog directed the new Bad Lieutenant starring Nicolas Cage, which he claims was not a remake of the old one, nor was he even aware of the original one with Harvey Kietel. This just happens to be total fucking bullshit, but you should still watch them both anyway.
