Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates.  I’ve been busy with school. As consolation, here’s a terrifyingly depressing article about Sly Stone http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/the_rise_and_fall_of_sly_stone_qijyKoYzmAqer1PA0YogSJ/1

Another one of our favorite albums this year comes from Sacramento scary ass hardcore rap collective Death Grips.  If you haven’t heard their mixtape Ex-Military yet, scoop that shit up right away.  It’s free. Anyways, they put out the stems to all of their tracks recently, something that could come in handy if you know what you’re doing. Pick those up right here

Kinda not really sure why I didn’t post this earlier, but The Rapture hosted a live stream of their new album In The Grace Of Your Love on ustream earlier today.  It was fucking awesome, and definitely one of my favorite albums of the year thus far. They’re running it on a loop now I think, so go and check it out right here. -Zach
