Music Videos

I just saw the damn near coolest thing I have seen in a while. My friend linked me to a music video of a band named Sour from Japan.

This music was also pretty interesting, but a good interesting.

In the video, they get a few of their fans (from the looks, around 20) and have them set up on a laptop webcam, and they just do some visually stunning effects and such with it. It will blow your mind.

Here is the video:

Now, that I posted that video, It also reminds me of the Weezer video for Pork and Beans.

The video for Pork and Beans features a tribute to many of the viral videos of the year.

The intro of the video also features a webcam style type intro.

Also, I am glad to say that Rivers Cuomo is getting better after his bus crash.

Dear Jack

This post is entitled Dear Jack for one simple reason.

Andrew McMohan started the band Jack's Mannequin in the year of 2004.

But in 2005, Andrew started feeling tired. He decided to visit his doctor.

Andrew was diagnosed with Leukemia.

Dear Jack is the story, his story, about his battle to make a full recovery of his leukemia.

Here are two of the trailers.

Just watching the trailer(s), it gives me shivers, and brings tears to my eyes.

The movie came out yesterday (November 3th, 2009).

In the summer of 2009, I had the once in a lifetime chance to see Jack's Mannequin live. It was an amazing experience to say the least.

Andrew McMohan is truly an inspiration.

TRV$DJAM - Fix Your Face Vol. 1 and 2

This post is going to be half review and half tribute. I will start out with my review

Upon hearing this for the first time, I was instantly impressed. Me being a drummer and Travis Barker being one of my major influences as a drummer. I also have played drums to rap songs for fun just messing around on my set. When I heard this, I clicked with it instantly. Gave it a listen through all the way, then another after that.

These mix tapes are both a solid flow of rap mixes, very well transitioned to one another, showing DJ AM's pure skill, and you can almost feel his passion for it by listening to how well he performs. As with Travis Barker, his skill is very well displayed in this tape. He adds his own touch to all of these songs.

The pure talent of Travis Barker and DJ AM together is insane. I realize I keep on repeating that over and over, but it is true.

I apologize for this being scattered, it just happens that way.
