Bullshit!
14 Comments
According to the Cuss-O-Meter, our cuss level here at YBNBY is low -- a mere 6.6% compared to the average 9% of most blogs! We have got to do something about this outrage. Take a moment and add the most colorful language you can imagine in the comments, and together we'll blast our cuss level through the mother fucking roof.

Portishead Third

200804221949.jpg

British Trip Hop pioneers release their third album next week, appropriately titled Third. Their first album, Dummy, is probably my favorite album of the last 20 years, so I have been looking forward to this. And now you can stream the entire album free, exclusively on LastFM.

So far I'm loving it. As always, Portishead provides one the soundtrack to one of the best movies never made.

It's All in How You Look at Things

Look at that logo above. Seemingly innocuous, right? It looks like something you'd see adhered to the side of a building along the highway, or at the top corner of a business card. Now turn that logo 90 degrees clockwise. Look long and hard. The UK's Office of Government Commerce missed it, and you may have too if a pervert (that would be me) didn't point it out to you. (You can read the whole article here.)

Replacements: Great or The Greatest?
0 Comments
replacements.jpg Today Rhino has reissued the first four albums by The Replacements with 30+ previously unreleased tracks between them. I don't need to tell you how brilliant they are when everyone from Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney to the music geeks at Pitchfork are singing their praises, we just need to figure out whether they are a great rock n' roll band or The Greatest Rock N' Roll Band: Here's a playlist of tracks from the reissued albums:

Catching up with Gary Gnu

gnews.jpg

"No gnews is good gnews with Gary Gnu."

That was the famous catch phrase of 80s muppet puppet icon Gary Gnu. Gary's gimmick was adding a guttural "g" sound to the beginning of any word he spoke which normally began with an "n", such as "gnews" for "news" and "gnaturally" for "naturally". It was comedic gold for 6-8 year old tykes back in the early 1980's.

Of course Gary is nothing but foam core and green fabric without the voice and puppeteer skills of Jim Martin. (Pictured above with Mark Hamill and, years later, accepting an Emmy for his work on Sesame Street.)

So what's up with them/him today?
