Music
More Than Vibrations
It is a miserable February day. The drafty windows are letting in a full wind from outside, as my throat is becoming scratchier. The music starts, my eyes weigh heavy on the cover art – a boat with tall sails and masts floating on water. I am reminded of the rain hitting the roof and [...]

newspress scare
The internet has sent me word that Vikesh Kapoor is celebrating the release of his Newspress Scare 7″ (pre-order) tonight at the Democracy Center. My questions are as follows: (1) what’s a newspress, and (2) what does it have to do with twitter google buzz?

Sans Terrabyte
Bathed in a dull blue light, the soft spinning of the hard drive does no longer registers to the screengazer.

My Freight bag is filled with empty bottles; I hold a trash bag full of cans in one hand. As I deposit the cans and [...]

Trackstand is a misnomer. It creates confusion by implying that there is a single point on which a cyclist can stand on the bicycle that will allow him to balance in perfect harmony.
True, there is a “sweet spot” that he will come upon, but will quickly lose it, and then find it, and then lose [...]

The Jack Stafford Foundation, friend of the Enough Cowbell couch, has recorded a collection of T-Rex covers as a little Christmas treat. This is, of course, as good as any reason to celebrate. You can download the 11 (!) song sampler for free here.
