I came across these nice remixes of David Bowie’s music in 8-Bit while making All My Bowies. Give them all a listen and a like if you like them, too:

Kishidan’s New Album (And My Favorite Kishidan Songs)

Kishidan, another of my favorite six-man bands, is releasing a new album: Kisarazu Graffiti!

Kishidan is one of my favorite Japanese bands. Singing songs with themes ranging from camaraderie to love to just plain badassery, their classic style is fierce and unforgettable. Jump the cut and see some of my favorite songs/videos of theirs!

With the recent release of Super Mario Galaxy 2, not to mention E3 with all the other great returning classic platform heroes, I just want to play video games all day. But such desires of the id are played down and subdued, only to be lived out in my fantasies while I watch video game related media at work.
(Nah, I’m working, honestly… with a little peep here and there.)
So anyway, I got a real kick out of this:
Quaff in Nashville

Heard of Quaff? I hadn’t, until it was announced they were coming to MTAC. Quaff: a Japanese visual kei band. Officially described thus: “Quaff is a band like none other.
