We can’t believe that it’s been 10 years since the day that inspired people across America to unite in fighting a common evil–the day that Nickelback released their Silver Side Up album. Here’s what you missed while you were avoiding all subways and bridges and screaming “Are we having fun yet?” (Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no…)

Das Racist released their new video for “Michael Jackson”…

…and it looks…exactly how you would imagine a Das Racist video for a song called “Michael Jackson” to look, oddly enough. That is, if you’ve mixed top-shelf moonshine with a few bottles of expired Nyquil and find yourself dazedly toggling between MTV, the History Channel, and public access…

Chad Valley played house with Active Child and How to Dress Well

What do you get when you mix the electro-harp stylings of Active Child, the silky smooth this-is-what-R&B-should-sound-like appeal of How to Dress Well, and the Jack-of-all-trades remixing prowess of Chad Valley? You get this space-age, ambient rework of “Playing House” that’s so sultry, if you don’t have a family yet, you will nine months from now.
