“In The Dark” – Horror Film Short by Enrique Garcia
Are you an indie horror film connoisseur? Into the whole short film thang? Well I highly recommend you check out this worthy flick written and directed by up and coming film star, Enrique Garcia. “In The Dark” is a chilling short that is pretty damn sweet, it had me gasping for air at some points (I’m a bit claustrophobic). The film is shot exceedingly well and the acting isn’t your typical cheese grade horror flick. Had this 16 + minutes of film gone full length, it would most definitely be [...]

“Dragonslayer” by Sunset Rubdown – Album Review
“Dragonslayer” by Sunset Rubdown – Wolf Parades’s co-frontmant/keyboardist, Spencer Krug has been keeping his musical pallet full with a colorful variety of bands. From the more widely known Wolf Parade, to Swan Lake, and Frog Eyes, his most active side project Sunset Rubdown has put out its fourth album “Dragon Slayer.” With his unique voice, Krug at times reminds me of David Bowie during his Ziggy Stardust era. A smooth yet shakey voice, full of power and emotion that can quickly be taken down to a soft sensitive tone. Filled [...]

GrimyGoods’ Top 10 Albums for the First Half of 2009
Damn! Only half-way through the year and so many great musicians have put out some killer albums!

But for now, here’s GrimyGoods’ Top 10 Albums of the first half of 2009. Also check out 2008′s top ten! Yeah Yeah Yeahs “It’s Blitz!” (Interscope) Dan Auerbach “Keep It Hid” (Nonesuch) [...]

“Hombre Lobo” by Eels – Album Review
‘Hombre Lobo” by Eels – Howling like a werewolf with a broken heart, front-man Mark Oliver Everett (aka “E”) and his band put out a stellar seventh album. Eels’ “Hombre Lobo” is most definitely “12 songs of desire.” I couldn’t help but notice how almost every song is about a woman. I guess us ladies do have quite the profound effect on you men, considering almost all songs are about us. J “Hombre Lobo” has a great variety of sounds, effects and melodies to keep you listening to each track. [...]

Sky Saxon – RIP
“I remember the day Darby Crash died. The next day, John Lennon was shot and killed and the world at large didn’t even care that Darby was gone.. sadly, I am now seeing the same thing happen with Sky Saxon, who died this morning….I guess that’s the price you pay when you swim outside the mainstream….” I read this yesterday on my friend Kurt Ross’ (a.k.a “The Infamous Jet Rash”) Facebook update and I couldn’t agree with him more. Lost in the sadness and flurry of Michael Jackson’s death (RIP), [...]

“Kitsune Maison 7” by Various Artists – Album Review
“Kitsune Maison 7” by Various Artists- The latest compilation from the French techno label features remixes of Phoenix, Autokratz, La Roux, and more. I love listening to music in different languages, especially when it doesn’t come off as some joke for pure amusement. Naturally I love track three, a remix of Phoenix’s “Lisztomania” (CLASSIXX Version). Phoenix has put out quite the pleasing album this past month, and the remix is’a nice medley of some chill-ass grooves. Track five, “Favourite Things” by The Golden Filter is cute and sexy (kinda like [...]

Another Retiree –Danny Gonzalez Retires From Professional Skateboarding
What’s up with all these amazing skaters going through early retirement? First the whole Jereme Rogers going “rapper” thing and now Danny Gonzalez? Legitimately so, Danny has some serious injury issues keeping him away from shredding. “It doesn’t look good. I recently found out my ankle is off set to the right. Which means my knee can’t take impact because I don’t have a good base. I would like to thank you and Jart for all your support, but this is it for me. I can no longer skateboard as [...]

Michael Jackson Moonwalking in the Clouds Above-RIP
Up there with Sky Saxon, may the one an only King of Pop rest in peace. June 25, 2009 was such a sad day for the whole world. Michael Jackson is legend and although we all may have poked fun at his unusual ways, it doesn’t change the fact that he is one of the greatest entertainers the world has ever witnessed. Rest in Peace MJ, we’ll always remember the mountains you moved and created in music. One of my favs:
