This Got so Much Better

After the first installment of Beck's record club, I wasn't sold. The cover of 'Monday Morning' was slow and Beck's voice was, let's say, not optimal for that type of song. Then came the next tracks from 'Velvet Underground & Nico,' and I am eating my words.

'Waiting for My Man' is a song which should sound god awful. Somehow when executed, the off-tuned ill-matching manic instrumentation is so great. Mixed with Beck's through the nose style vocals, this is a keeper.

'Femme Fatale' sounds like a guy rapping on his jeans and stomping while Beck whispers (through his nose again). It's pretty good!

I think we can say that these songs are the OPPOSITE of communism. Sounds horrible on paper, great in reality.

I Liked Part of Late Night With Jimmy Fallon

Oh yeah, watch this. Wait, wait, wait.....Really? Oh my god. Ohhhhh god. Oh ahhhhh hahahah. Wha....What? Hahahahaaha. Oh man. Keep watching, keep watching. Oh man, really? Ahhhhhhhahahahahahah. Oh my freaking god. (Reaction of everyone aged 22-30 watching this clip).

Woof Woof 100th Post!

Today is a celebration at eatdogeat, for this is the 100th post. Ahhhh, it feels so good. Here's to another hundred posts (and the hope that at least a few people read them). Oh so bittersweet. 

Anyway, who more appropriate for a 100th post celebration than Tom Waits? It turns out he voiced a dog food commercial for 'Butcher's Blend' forever ago. Beeeeef, liver, bacon.

Bam! A dog food commercial by Tom Waits on a music blog called eatdogeat. That's so relevant, I don't think I will ever post again. Here's another Tom Waits song, one of my favorites:

Will I see you tonight? Reading eatdogeat? 

'Eat dog eat'

Not Gonna Lie

It's time for me to come out with the truth here at eatdogeat. I only wanted to become a blogger after I saw this character on SNL. You say this isn't music related? Bitch Pleeze.

Wilco (again!)

Wilco.  There, I said it again, in case you didn't get your fill-co.  They apparently took some crazy pill-cos, and came up with this great album cover which is going to kill-co.  Okay, I'll stop because this is probably making you ill-co.  Ha!  New album on June 29th.

'Wilco (the song)'

Fresh Turd: Chris Cornell

Well look who decided to join the parade of (semi-)respectable 90's alt-rock kings who trash any remaining respect for them with god awful choices (looking at you Billy Corgan).  This is a little old, but Chris Cornell of Soundgarden did sumthin' real real bad.  He teamed up with hip-hop producer Timbaland for some bangin' club tracks, like this one, 'Part of Me'.  It starts poorly, but you HAVE to stick around for the most awkward chorus of all time.  Part of me says I might have liked this song if Britney Spears recorded it.
