Seven Videos That Got Away From Me During Blogging Hours

makeoutclub.pngIt’s the last day of the month, a time for desk-clearing and “to do” list-finalizing and, in the case of April 2008, celebrating that a pretty horrible 30-day stretch is near its end.

This Album’s Out-Of-Print Status Makes Me So Sick, So So So Sick


Even in the MP3 age, there are CDs worth searching out–that require the search. “O.O.P., We Did It Again” is dedicated to great albums that are criminally out of print–and that aren’t necessarily likely to become available anytime soon.

The album: Perfect Teeth (1993), the final album from Washington, D.C. trio Unrest. MORE »

There's also a (single) copy of the 6x7" for sale at 3 beads of sweat, which I'm mostly posting about in the hopes that someone else snatches it up before I spend $50 I don't have.
