Flag Pole Sitta
192. Harvey Danger
"Flagpole Sitta"
[Slash; 1998]
Right from the start, Seattle's Harvey Danger wanted to bite the hands that fed them-- not just the corporate machines that co-opted youthful dissent, but the fickle backbiting post-Nirvana "punk rock" subculture that treated credibility like a credit card. Think of "Flagpole Sitta" as a slightly more mature and jaded version of Green Day's "Longview". In Harvey Danger's world-- a world where their caustic candor shared Billboard real estate with such alternative rock landmarks like as the Barenaked Ladies' paean to Chinese chicken and the Goo Goo Dolls' big ballad crossover-- the couch is falling apart, the TV broke years ago, and the self-loathing has reached such levels of agonizing irony that when singer Sean Nelson hits one of his many fish-in-barrel bullseyes, you have to wonder if even he believes his own bullshit. --David Raposa
First track is the original, second track killzzzz happy new semester everybody

Film Geek Time Killer
Sunk hella time into flickchart.com tonight. It randomly pits two films against each other and forces you to pick a favorite, thus compiling a more accurate top movies list for you. Its not perfect (i have absolutely no fucking clue what the methodology is beyond the obvious) but it is really fun.The best part about flickchart is the alternate movie posters they show from time to time, super rad. highly recommended.
Everything In Between
No Age's new LP Everything In Between is an absolute masterpiece. Perfect inspiration for next semester, Grad School Apps and Beyond. Absolutely cannot wait to see these bros September 30th at the Bowl.
