Beck's Record Club

So even though he might be a Scientology I am a real big fan of what Beck has been up to as of late. On his WEBSITE he has a new feature called record club. basically he get some of his musician friends together and they record their "interpretation" of an entire album in a single day. There are no rehearsals and the recordings are low-fi. He decided to start with the Nico & Velvet Underground although he almost started with Digital Underground's Sex Packets. He's been posting a new song every week and I assume he's busy recording additional albums as you read this. Here are a few of the videos so far. If anyone finds the MP3s let me know!

Landlord of the Flies

This dude tried to rent a room in a house this summer and ended up with the worst landlord ever. Its a crazy story and since his landlord wont return his security deposit he started a blog calling him out on all the retarded shit he did. Its really awesome. If nothing else just go and check out the crazy voicemail his landlord left him.

Here's the link!

“Gabe… Gabe Dunn you little cunt, you little queer. If you think you’re going to get a uh a uh deposit refund from me…. kiss my fucking dick. I saw your little squirrelly ass… came in here today and didn’t have the balls to hand me your key, and I’m not sure it was your key, because I think you’re a little fucking … crook. I hope you rot in hell you cocksucker. (long pause) You little fucking dick. You little squirrelly bipolar dick…. I know you’re bipolar. You will not receive a refund of your stupid fucking deposit because you broke the contract you motherfucking little squirrelly dick. Take me to court you lying motherfucker. Remember…. Well, you don’t remember because you’re fucking queer. And you’re bipolar. You let the cops in my house you fucking dick. Take me to small claims like you threatened me. You DICK. You fucking little tiny fucking dick. That’s what you are. You’re a little tiny dick from… Fermilab. Call me if you dare… dick!”

"In response to numerous requests over the past few days, my original "I Glove MJ" t-shirt will be making a comeback. Also, to address the concerns of some who have written to me, Yes, I'm the original designer of this graphic (which was originally released for me by 2K tshirts back in 2003).

This time around I'm producing the tee independently here in the States. It's available in the original teal, pink, and heather bodies, along with a new colorway on black tees."
