Radio Moscow - Dog Show
As a garage punk faggot myself, 3 & 3 Quarters is my favourite release from Radio Moscow. It awesomeness measures itself with early Black Lips, Demon's Claws and you name it. Or don't name it, who gives a fuck what you do? It's a shame it was released ten years after it was recorded, it could've went in the books as a garage punk classic, but the people that care for such music haven't heard this and the majority of the Radio Moscow fans would much rather like to hear generic blues rock than dirty tunes like these. (Not that I did any research about the fans, I just pulled that statement right out of my ass!)

Pig Destroyer - Can't Tell No One (Negative Approach cover)
Book Burner was my one of my favourite albums of 2012, the best thing about it was the bonus disc where they cover seven hardcore classics. It's absolutely outstanding and it doesn't come off as some gimmick like, look at this grindcore band trying to ruin a bunch of monumental punk songs. There's definitely some soul to it!

The Humpers - (I'm) Watching You
Recorded in 1994, badass garage punk band from Long Beach, California. Aren't really known as some of the similar bands around that time and area, which is strange because the songs are catchy as hell and they released a couple records for the big shots over at Epitaph. I hadn't heard of them either until I listened to The Hellacopters cover of this song. That's what's so cool about those Swedish artists like them and The Hives, no matter how much fame they get they always make sure you know by what bands they were influenced, unlike other douchebags who steal like bankers and then tell Rolling Stone magazine they were influenced by the sun, rainbows and Che Guevara. Go fuck yourself.

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Danger
Bettie Page scares the living hell out of me! Meat + Bone came out last year and it defines what punk and blues are all about. Chaotic, fun, rootsy, paying homage to the greats and at the same time holding a middle finger to every convention.

Black Lips - Stranger
I've left the house only for about half an hour the last week, and that's because I was out of booze. My anxiety issues may have gone to an extreme level, it's never going to outweigh my alcoholism though! I spend a lot of time watching hockey now that the lockout has ended. It's such a great sport, boxing is number one, but I'm becoming dissatisfied with what it has to offer lately. Marquez finally got the victory against Pacquiao he deserved the previous match(es) too, other than that nothing is happening. So called talents are not living up to the hype, judges are still scoring the fights like they have shit in their eyes, Bernard Hopkins is still fighting... I have the utmost respect for the man, but after that last "my shoulder hurts"-debacle, it's just getting embarrassing. When am I finally getting my sports show? Being a blogger fucking blows.

Salome - Master Failure
The documentary Dark Days was brought to my attention by the Opester (Underground Exploring Searching for MOLE PEOPLE). It's about homeless people who literally lived under Manhattan in the Amtrak tunnel. Beautifully shot, they focus on a few residents who all have their own stories and various backgrounds. What you hear is Salome, a doom/sludge metal band with vocalist Katherine Katz who has the one most powerful voices I've heard in my life. The band split up a while ago, but good old Katz is still kicking it with the grindcore masters of Agoraphobic Nosebleed.
