Songs That Actually Terrify Me For Halloween

Halloween is almost upon us and I absolutely love it. From the horror movies at the theater to slutty nurse costumes to bobbing for apples (the forerunner of the choking game?), as humans, it feels like we need to embrace our dark nature sometimes. And nobody does destruction like humans do destruction. We're awesome at being awesomely bad to each other, it's built in. For all the wonderful things that we can do, we're equally matched by the horrible. At Christmas, we celebrate our generosity an...

TONIGHT: Tuesday 9/15/09 at The Frequency with MARK MALLMAN!

The day is finally here!Tonight we will be putting on a rare TUESDAY night show in Madison, and for good reason: Minneapolis rocker Mark Mallman is in town!If you haven't had the opportunity to see or hear Mallman, here's a sneak peek of one of his new singles:and here's another one that I love:If that's not enough to convince you, I have a personal testimonial.

New Torchwood starts tonight on BBC America!

Just wanted to send out a reminder to everyone that the new Torchwood starts tonight at 8pm on BBC America. I cheated and watched the first one (but I'm still DVRing the BBCA version) and I can tell you that it is indeed, the best Torchwood ever. It's a definite "quantum leap" in quality.To jog your memory back a little bit, here's a video we made last year using some of our favorite scenes from Season One with the demo version of our song, "Alive Day". I was thinking of putting the new verison ...

Opening for Cowboy Mouth at the Majestic!

I'm really excited to play The Majestic tonight because this will be our first show at the club and I heard that it's a great venue (but I haven't been inside it since Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie came out and I had to spend most of my time babysitting my drunk friend, Jeff (who eventually ended up back in his dorm sitting in a recliner in the elevator telling people that he was Captain Kenda of the Starship Elevatorprise), so I can't wait to see what they've done to the place.)

Grand Guignol

"Grand Guignol" is a hard rock anthem about the people who just have to make a big deal out of everything.Le Theatre du Grand-Guignol was where Parisians used to go to get shocked. They specialized in naturalistic horror plays that were over-dramatized, ridiculous, and over the top. It now comes to mean any gruesome or gory drama or event. We all know at least one person who loves to turn every night into drama night, and this song is for them.You can download the MP4 of the video right here an...

Up until an hour ago, I never thought I would see what might be the greatest episode of GI Joe ever.

Oh frabjous day!Cobra, you see, ran out of money and needed to find a way to pay back their creditors, so Zartan and The Dreadnoks form a band called Cold Slither and they use subliminal messages to get the song to Number One.However, as you ...
