Music Shit / Where can I find Belching Penguins lyrics?
« on: October 27, 2013, 12:04:57 AM »
Besides their albums, that is.  Google and Bing were of no help.

It's frustrating sometimes how hard it is to find lyrics of hardcore punk bands sometimes.  Unless I run across something at a record store and it's not sealed, I'm not gonna find them out.  Sucks, because there's a lot of bands that I'd get into more if I only knew the lyrics.  Concrete Sox are one example - I was extremely fortunate to find their split with Heresy (no, I'm not trading or selling it) and really dug what I read of their lyrics.  Especially "Speak Siberian or Die", which was a dig at S.O.D.  CS's material o there isn't the greatest, but I'll listen to them just to shout along.  And yes, I realize that CS's lyrics are probably googleable.  That wasn't the point, though.

Music Shit / Long VICE article about cassette tapes

I have mixed feelings about them giving exposure to this, but some sort of wide-scale resurgence in the manufacturing of cassettes by major labels sounds pretty unlikely. 

Still, this does make me cringe...

Burger Records is actually working on a collaboration with Urban Outfitters to make a walkman called ?The Burger Buddy.? The difference between this and an iPhone cover that looks like a cassette is that ?The Burger Buddy? actually can play cassettes and Burger hopes this player will influence more people to use tape players and listen to cassettes.
