RATATAT - NECKBRACE

RATATAT - NECKBRACE another totally abnormal and awesome video by these guys. I think as far as music videos go these guys are becoming my favorite. In music class in college a professor had big head in the music biz come speak to our class. I forget her name. She claimed that because of the dying music industry people have much less money to spend on videos but videos are still very important for the artist. Back in the 90's artist would spend millions on a video, no problem, because they were actually making enough record sales to support it (some anyhow). Now a days there is not enough money to spend that kind of doe on a video. The task at hand now is to create a 1 million dollar video with $25,000 or less. The directors who can do great videos for $10,000 are the ones who will succeed. That being said. Ratatat is doing a great job at creating entertaining and cheap videos. I can't imagine this video cost more than $3000. I bet it was much less and look how cool it is. It just goes to show that a little creativity can go a long way. Do you think it's a good think that artist don't spend millions on videos anymore? I believe it's forcing creativity. Of course there will always be the show offs like Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Maroon 5  and all the other super pop stars like Bieber spending skrill on mega videos but who cares, they all suck anyway. This video was apparently directed by E*VAX the Ratatat member Evan Mast. Good job Evan!

KEVIN WINTER/GETTY IMAGES Paul McCartney subs for Kurt Cobain as Nirvana reunites to play for Sandy Benefit Are you fucking serious? First of all I know Paul McCartney is a great guy and all and is super into rock and roll and was the head Beatle in his hay day, or atleast her was the heart throb but... doesn't it seem a little strange that he of all people would take Kurt Cobains place????? I feel like Kurt would be a little disappointed. Kurt was so raw and grungy and cool and dark and having Paul McCartney in his place seems like having Elmo take his place. I don't think Kurt would be to happy about that, it's almost a joke.  Well guess what it was apparently  Nirvana's Dave Grohl (drummer that joined in 1990 and now plays in the popular band The Foo Fighters ) who invited McCartney to play today's special 12-12-12 Sandy Benefit .   McCartney was even quoted as saying "I didn't even really know who they were" what a fuck head and...

The IRS Is Hiring Armed Agents To Investigate The Middle Class

  IRS poised to get $80 billion in new funding over the coming decade if the Inflation Reduction Act passes The Internal Revenue Service’s operations are catching heat as the tax agency is in line for an $80 billion budget boost under the Democrats’ proposed spending plan — and now there’s intense attention being focused on IRS workers who actually pack heat. It started as criticism from Republican leaders that the tax-collecting agency would bring on 87,000 new employees to “target regular, everyday Americans” with the $80 billion earmarked for the IRS in the Inflation Reduction Act reconciliation bill, which looks poised to become law. That’s a “ misleading ” claim, according to the Associated Press. The bill passed Friday in a  220-207 vote  of the House of Representatives and is now headed to President Joe Biden’s desk to be signed into law. In recent days there’s been an online stir over job postings for IRS special agents who carry guns as part of their work with th...
