We sure can’t. However, one thing that we’ve got covered is the question of ‘what’s hot?’ in the world of music videos. Check them out below. Read more…

I can’t get enough of it, I need more of it, I want to stretch it out, pound it thin, toss it in the air and put it in the oven to make sure it will always stay this fresh and tasty to my eardrums. So far so good - looks like it’s shelf life has been extended indefinitely after watching Spencer, Dan and the gang rip through a handful of tracks from Zoomer last summer at Montreal’s La Sala Rossa (well done brockmasterflex). The countdown for their Terminal 5 shows is officially on…. Read more…

What’s hot right now? Death Valley, hybrid vehicles, pregnancy pacts, short shorts, keyboard pants, When You Are Engulfed In Flames by David Sedaris, NYC Waterfalls, probiotics, etc. etc. ad infinitum… it’s tough to keep up with it all sometimes.

Here are just a few examples - good and bad - of others willingly spreading the “Creep”. We ask you to reconsider your “Creep” embargo and give us the goods….everyone else is doing it: Read more…
