The Gorillaz are back!

Well not yet, but soon! It's actually been over a year since it was announced that the Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewitt were working on the new Gorillaz Album. Even back then it was said to happen in 2010, which can be a long time. The last thing published was in September when it was said that The Horrors were asked to help on the new album. I just got wind of it today as I was listening to the radio.

I'm definitely wanting March 2010 to come soon since this when the new CD is supposed to come out. Demon Days is in heavy rotation on my ipod and I kinda got giddy when i heard that a third album was happening. It will be interesting to see what the Blur band member and Tank Girl illustrator has in store for us.

On a side note, it is rumored that the Gorillaz website will be relaunched in December with new content.

The Devil Ducky Super Post

So it's been a while since Devil Ducky had a post, and I figured it's time for him to come out and play for awhile. Beside being busy with plans for world domination, Devil Ducky has been working fervently to maintain and raise his evil nature. As you can see, people can try to avoid the ducky, but he will always be there... right behind you... thinking of the chaos he will produce.



Also, a good friend has come up with lyrics for Devil-Ducky's theme song. He was singing a song about Devil Ducky in the tune of Rubber-Ducky, but I thought Devil Ducky needed a more metal sounds and lyrics. So here are the lyrics and you can insert your own metal sound; throw in heavy guitars , guttural sounds and some screaming and you pretty much got Devil-Ducky's theme song.

Devil Ducky's a Li-ar
Devil Ducky's on Fi-ar
Devil Ducky will cause you pain
Devil Ducky will make you lame
Yeah!
Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky!
I will follow - Where - You -Lead
Even if it - Makes - Me - Bleed
Devil Ducky - Hear My Creed!
Devil Ducky - You - Fill - My - Need!
Yeah!
Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky!
Yeah! You fill My Need!
Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky - Devil Ducky!


Finally, Devil-Ducky has official minions. They have been dubbed the Four Duckies of the Apocalypse. Tremble in fear.
That's all for now. Go on with your normal business as usual. Don't think anything is wrong if you see any of these ducks wandering around your neighborhood. Nothing to see here. Move along.

The Halloween Post w/ music videos!

Happy Halloween!

As in past years, I'm probably not doing anything this Halloween, but there definitely seems to be a buzz about it this year. It's making me excited. Maybe it's because this year the day falls on a Saturday, so the revelry can be way more spectacular. Even seen creepy clowns in the sidewalk telling us to go to their haunted house. I've seen numerous sign post for more haunted houses. and I'm in the mood to carve a pumpkin. I even have the great pumpkin recorded on my DVR.

So in honor of this holiday, I present great songs for Halloween!



Of course, I have to put this up RIP Michael Jackson

And my personal favorite:

Popular Music besides in the US

I figured I'd check out what Europe and Canada see as popular music.

Canada has:

Currently number one in the European Hot 100:
I admit I have this weird fascination for Robbie Williams, i think it's that tattoo and the swagger, or it could be this vid:


That is until around the 3 minute mark... you have been warned if you have not seen this before.

I still head bang like Wayne's World



Push play. Read new Lyrics. Enjoy
oh if you can buy the shirt too.

Is this a graveyard? Is this a castle lab?
So many pieces that those other people had
Sewed them one by one, a new sort of son he’d be
I called for Igor, he brought a brain to me
Because Prometheus
He will rise
Show them all
I was wise
They all thought me maaaad
I’ll show them who’s maaaad you seeee
Not meeee

Mummy
Just killed a man
Opened up the casket bed
He got cursed and now he’s dead
Mummy
His sarcophagus
Was comfortable and they took it away
Mummy
Ooooo oooooo
Didn’t really want to rise
But if they don’t put it back before tomorrow
they’re all gone
they’re all gone
And he will show no mercy

His job
Is never done
All his organs kept in brine, he’s made lots of overtime
Pharaoh was his buddy, his life-long bro
Said he’d stay awake and guard him in the tomb
Mummy
Ooooo ooooo
there aren’t even windows
He cannot ever die
He’ll sometimes wish he’d never signed on at all


Igor be ready with that switch in your hand
God’s domain, God’s domain, going where you should not go
Thunderbolt and lightning, the monster is rising, see!

Come here, Igor
Here’s your Igor
Help me, Igor
I’m your Igor
Igor, shut it help me pull
This circuit clo-o-o-osed

I’m just a wolf man nobody loves me
He’s just a wolf man, oh the humanity
Three days a month he will hunt you and me

Quake in fear, I am here, to collect my rent
Dracula, no! We will not pay your rent
Pay my rent!
Dracula! We will not pay your rent
Pay my rent!
Dracula! We will not pay your rent
Pay my rent!
Will not pay your rent!
Pay my rent!
Will not pay your rent!
Never pay my rent?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Master we flee-a have to flee-a they have pitchforks at the door
The villagers have come to kill the monsters weeee
That’s weeee
We beeeeeeee


So you hit me with lightning and bring me to life?
Left me scared and confused and now I’m the bad guy?
Ohhhh, monsters
Who are really the monsters
Technically us
Technically, sure, but you see


We’re just allegory
You watch vicariously
We’re just allegory
You’re all the true monsters
Not weeee


Note the clever ennnndiiiing
CRASSSSSSssssssssh

R-71 revisted


I just wanted to touch base again on this issue since ballots are being mailed out and Nov. 3 is quickly approaching. The referendum is not about gay marriage. The actual ballot even states it is not a gay marriage bill. Whether they are misinformed or know the details and wish to confound the issue, opponents of the referendum have taken steps to mislead. There has been signage that says, "Reject R-71. Marriage = One Man. One Woman." I don't understand why American society has this weird issue with marriage. A good percentage of people either don't mind or actively believe a same sex couple should have the same rights as a heterosexual couple, but say the word "marriage" and that percentage shrinks, and with that, the rights that become exclusive with the word "marriage." It may be cynical of me, but sometimes i think certain people knows this difference and uses it against us and society.

Nevertheless, I feel it is necessary to make sure people see the difference, so they know that rights are being denied. There will be a time when American society will accept gay marriage, but in the meantime, at least give committed gay couples the same important rights a married couple has.
