Full disclosure: I have never had much success enjoyably listening to bands or albums just because they have a great name. I don't think very many people do. However, that is how I stumbled across this hidden gem of an album in 2010. Strand of Oaks, the recording moniker used by Timothy Showalter, is, at its core, a singer-songwriter project. Rarely is anything ever heard beyond Showalter's melancholy voice and his guitar. Many of the songs you don't even hear his voice, choosing to forego that route for simple instrumental tracks. However, for his second album, Showalter lets go of some of the despair that was the root for his first album, Leave Ruin, and chooses the much quirkier route of writing a concept album.
More disclosure: I am a sucker for a concept album. From Neutral Milk Hotel's Anne Frank-inspired indie-folk classic In The Aeroplane Over The Sea to Titus Andronicus' Civil War themed The Monitor, the stranger the concept, the more I am sucked in. So, what is this grandiose concept that drew me in? The same disappointment and regret as before, but this time focused around fictional stories involving the Bible, The Kennedy's, and everything in between, up to and including Ghostbusters. That's right folks, Ghostbusters. Honestly, some of the concepts would not be out of place on one of your favorite metal albums. Tales of 12-foot monsters leading to mothers crying in the street would seem quite fitting on the new Mastodon album, but not on a quiet indie-folk album.
But enough of the concept, what about the music? As I said before, rarely does he disembark from the textbook singer-songwriter aesthetic. So, as is typical with these albums, the lyrical content is what must stand apart, and he passes with flying colors. On “Kill Dragon”, Showalter starts of with what would seem like a fitting song on his previous album, singing about how everyone has left him, whether it be through break-ups or death. However, the tempo picks up, leading to him repeating the line, “Mary, Mary, Mary would you marry me? / Then me and you and Jesus could be a family”. And that's how the song ends. That just sets up the strange feel of the album.
On the next track, the seven minute centerpiece “Sterling”, Showalter launches into a story about a dream he had about a trip he took with the Kennedy's, in which John Kennedy discovers a German tale written by his estranged, bastard son about a pope named Killdragon. However, at the end of it all, he reminds you that he still has a heavy heart, telling about how he “drank himself to sleep, just to get some company”. But, this is also where the music reaches its apex, a the acoustic guitar is subbed out temporarily for an electric and the drums slowly kick in as Showalter's voice fades out behind the wall of sound, saying “I saw him coming” over and over, further painting the picture of him drinking and passing out, repeating those four words.
The entire album carries this same weight. As Showalter deftly strides from song-to-song, the listener gets insight into his own life, despite the fact that it is projected onto the wild songs of lore. Also, in case you were wondering, “Alex Kona” is the song that references 12-foot giants and mothers crying. “Daniel's Blues” is about Dan Aykroyd wanting John Belushi to have a role in Ghostbusters, but he had passed away. He sings about who he will get to replace him (But who will I call / Chevy's an ass and Gill has got a cold”). I won't spoil anything else for you, but it is easily the most cathartic song ever written about Ghostbusters. Just do yourself a favor, and, if you are a fan of folk music (Or even doom metal, as he shows he can do that too with the song “Giant's Despair”), just listen to the album and let Strand of Oaks wave of tales drown you in its sound.

Too funny... Tyler Perry's movie "Madea's Big Happy Family" is coming soon. So... here's a promo of Madea as "Snooki" on Jersey Shore. Is this fashion... I mean for my blog?? In a comedic way.... YESSSSSS!!!!!
Housewives of Atlanta reality star NeNe Leakes and Housewives of Beverly Hills castmate Taylor Armstrong were spotted out enjoying paparazzi and fun. They looked great as well, especially NeNe with her form-fitting jersey dress and Christian Louboutins.
NeNe is apparently supposed to be starring on the HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS show!!!
WHAAAT???!!! Awkward black dot on a white sheet of paper... just sayin'.... You never know.... IT could work. See more pics of the pair holding hands and going into a steakhouse.
FYI: NeNe is not THAT big; I met her in Detroit one time, and she was my height when she was in heels.
This powerhouse-- WILL SMITH-- the guy that rakes billions of dollars for movie companies, the guy whose daughter has people "whipping their hair" all over the world (Willow Smith), the guy who has a get-better-with-age wife, and--- this dude just has it all.
Sidenote: He's rehearsing for Men In Black III.
Will Smith seems to revive his FRESH PRINCE OF BEL-AIR days by wearing an equally fresh outfit. Wearing ALEXANDER McQUEEN jeans and NIKE BLAZER sneakers for $100, he's just killing the game effortlessly.
1: Most of my adult life I've worked in forensic psychology, in prisons and police departments in six states, specifically with sexual offenders and serial homicide offenders.
2: I dig (though by no means am tr00 or kvlt) black metal; of course I still consider Behemoth black(ish) metal, and love Liturgy, so....
3: Burzum, aka Varg Vikernes, served time in Norwegian prison for murder and arson.
This highlights a sticky area for reviewers: how do you review a piece of (at least alleged) art, knowing the potentially toxic background of the artist?
Do you avoid the Ad Hominem fallacy ("He's a bad man, so he can never have anything good to say!") and listen earnestly to what he's done?
Or do we say Fuck that shit, murdering, church burning bastard.
And it's deceptively easy, from the safely of reading the monitor, to say "you go, burn that shit!" or something similar.
Now imagine your mother or grandmother being burned alive in a building she found peaceful, or held onto as a symbol, or source of peace.
Regardless of your opinion toward the church and/or Christianity (and the perhaps-inevitable paradoxes inherent therein), there are serious, life-changing repercussions of what Mr. Vikernes was convicted of doing.
The point is, this area gets emotionally tangled very quickly, especially to me; I'm likely to be particularly irritated by the artist's history and perhaps not enjoy this work as well as someone else might. Be warned, and read on with that in the background of your cerebellum.
So.
If his musical work, despite his background, is good, do we say it's good? Do we endorse it?
Maybe put more directly-- if Hitler gave you the winning lottery numbers, would you play them?
Or would you object to the millions you'd get, despite the millions dead?
[Although I'm phrasing this question somewhat rhetorically, I'm obviously working up to a review of the work in question. But: wouldn't it be hilarious if I just concluded it wasn't something that should be reviewed at all, and just stopped here? Something like, soup Nazi style: "No review for you!"]
Overall, Fallen sounds like it cost $10 to make; does that make it tr00? Or is it like John Cougar Mellancamp or Joel McHale, spending hours on a haircut, trying to make it look like they spent 10 seconds on it?
If the appearance, at least, of low-budget recording appeals to you, well then... there you go.
Track one, "Jeg Faller": sounds like my first guitar, a Harmony, played through its accompanying 1.5 inch speaker, with no gain-- but somehow does not sound bad...? Like all tracks on Fallen, it's a mix of ambient, electro-pop (somehow: maybe it's because of what I'm certain is a drum machine and its stiffness...?), black metal, folk music, acoustic pop... actually, it might be easier to list what musics don't end up somewhere on here.
"Valen," like the previous track, follows the songwriting trope of less-melodic verse followed by "catchy" chorus with cleanish vocals. And it pretty much works.
"Vanvidd" continues both the Norwegian lyrics and musical themes: cold, tremolo-picked chords in standard tuning, with murmured lyrics that become hoarse and raspy, replete with blast beats... managing to sound like black metal and ambient relaxation music (seriously) at the same time.... Bonus: at around 3:45 it manages to invoke both Ministry and Joy Division....
"Enhver till Sitt" starts with that same shrill, high-gain non-wound guitar string, bleating a flatted-fifth (sinister) riff.... The remaining tracks "Budstikken" (black metal Pet Shop Boys? Dance floor KMFDM?) and "Til Hel og Tilbake Igjen" (say what you will about the songs themselves, but Norwegian song titles sound metal as shit, don't they?) are interesting, above average black metal.
So-- the overall verdict here is actually quite anticlimactic: Fallen is pretty good.
It's got good moments, and interesting uses of texture and contrast. It's not great. It's not terrible. It's the germ of something great.
Whether Burzum is past his greatness, or approaching it, is anyone's guess.
Sometimes wearing a simple black T-shirt needs to have a lil' more of something to it. Like a pocket T-shirt would handsomely accomodate a handkerchief, and a black T-shirt can have even the smallest of graphics, like JOE JONAS' Comme Des Garcon T-shirt. Judging by the shirt and his break up with Ashley Greene (not that I care; just sayin'...), he's available for the girls who want him.
Brightens up the whole shirt and has a deep meaning to it, doesn't it?
check out Keyshia Cole slimmed down and belting out a live performance recently. The 'talk of town' was not really her performance, but her attention-grabbing heels by shoe great Guiseppe Zanotti (falls in same line as Christian Louboutin).

Just doin' a fly-by this morning; Amy Winehouse (spotted in London) really looks great, a far cry from her "dirty" self that included holes in her stockings and dirty feet..
Ever since people stopped buying rock records in decent quantities, there’s been an increase in quality documentaries on classic artists like The Ramones and Rush as well as rescuing a band like Anvil from obscurity. Given the subject matter, it seemed like Lemmy: 49% Motherf**ker, 51% Son of a Bitch would be the ultimate portrait of rocks favorite ugly son but unfortunately this one falls pretty short of expectation. While definitely worth watching, the overwhelming feeling I’m left with is “what happened? How did they not get the job done?”
Granted, I’m a bigger Motorhead fan than most Motorhead fans. Motorhead’s music changed my life the first time I shoplifted Iron Fist from Caldors back in 1982, and when I saw them for the first time in 1983 my ears rang for 8 days afterwards. To this day, all live performances are measured against that high energy volume overkilldose. It’s obvious the filmmakers are fans but not stone deaf forever Motorheadbangers. They have stated many times that the movie is about Lemmy and not a history of Motorhead but we all know that those two things are one and the same.
Some of the better parts of the film are about Lemmy’s days before Motorhead, including a great segment about the Rockin’ Vicars, the band he played guitar for in the mid-1960’s. They managed to track down some of his band mates and even legendary producer Shel Talmy (The Who, The Kinks) who make it clear that Lemmy was pretty much the same guy back then that he is now. The section on Hawkwind is also good. Lemmy repeats his often told tale of how he got fired from the legendary space rock band, but you also get to hear Dave Brock and Nik Turner’s side of the story, too. Even the Amazonian dancer Stacia gets some screen time. Unfortunately, there isn’t that much discussion of Hawkwind’s groundbreaking music. No one mentions that everyone should own a copy of Space Ritual and there’s no information about the classic albums Lemmy made with them.
The formation of Motorhead takes up about 120 seconds of screen time. Guitarist Fast Eddie Clarke is on and off the screen way too quickly. Philthy Animal Taylor apparently did not want to be interviewed for the movie and he’s barely mentioned. Again, there’s hardly a word on the incredible run of albums that line up made. Wurzel, Pete Gill and Brian Robertson are written out of the script. Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell wind up looking like mere sidemen of a band that they’re equal partners in.
Way too much screen time is spent on pointless interviews with Billy Bob Thorton, Jarvis Cocker and the bass player from New Order. Who fucking cares what these clowns have to say about Lemmy? The usual VH1 talking heads like Scott Ian, Dee Snider, Dave Navarro and Henry Rollins have some good stories and there are interviews with all the members of Metallica except, surprisingly, Lars Ulrich. Dee has one of the funniest lines in the movie where he talks about not having seen Lemmy for a long time and goes backstage and it’s all the same roadies that he knew from ten years before. Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible of The Damned share some great tales from the insanity they participated in with Lemmy in the late 70’s.
One thing that the filmmakers get right is showing just how dedicated Lemmy is to his music. This is someone that has literally sacrificed everything for rock n roll. He’s had some moderate success but lives in a rent controlled 2 bedroom apartment with his enormous World War II collection when he’s not on tour or at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in LA. He has one son that he has a good relationship with and another one he’s never met. When he’s not playing music, he’s reading or gambling but always drinking.
Luckily the DVD helps correct some of the problems with the feature film. It’s worth picking up just for the full interview with Fast Eddie Clarke. It’s up to him to tell the real story of how the band started and he’s the only one to mention original guitarist Larry Wallis by name. Eddie also gives insight into how Motorhead got their signature sound – speedy music played by guys on speed. He claims that speed is a great drug to take when you’re playing music since you don’t have to leave the stage every 20 minutes to re-up. His story on how they wrote their signature song “Overkill” is hilarious and inspiring.
Other cool extras include extended interviews with Lemmy and individual features on Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee. The movie could have used more of this and less ass kissing testimonials. Any movie about Lemmy is worth watching, and this one definitely is, but it should have been so much better.

These are very interesting. I guess you're wondering how this made it into my "Sneaker of the Day" post. Well, uniqueness always trumps. The sneakers above looks like a $290 sock... as a matter of fact, IT IS A $290 'SOCK'. The sneaker has a sockliner and it's lightweight to feel like a sock.
Very OUTER-SPACE, DIFFERENT; I LIKE IT. Would I wear it, though? No.

WOW... that's a pretty white woman. If THIS was in 2011... watch out!!
In respect of the royal woman of glamour, fashion, and beauty, I want to post a few pictures of Elizabeth Taylor, the one who many women across the world looked up to and many men, as well, doubled back to look at this gorgeous figurine who was the centerpiece of magazines and the big screen for decades.
You can tell she was clearly scared. The tiger has to be restrained by a trainer while the Kardashians took a family picture. Now, I have done a few photo shoots, but I don't know if I'll be ready to do something to THAT extreme; if it does happen.....OOOOOK.
See what else Kim had to say about the photo shoot:
"I tried posing with the white tiger at our family photo shoot for Keeping Up with the Kardashians season six last week, but I was so scared!!!! The tiger had to get into position on his own! It was freakkkky! He got a little frisky so the trainer had to come help out. This is probably one of the scariest moments I’ve had during a photo shoot."

“Good evening. I’m your host Glen Moderator. Welcome to Point / Counterpoint, a show featuring informative debates on hot-button topics. Today’s program is a little different than normal. Our regular contributor Penfold is here of course, but unfortunately I have to report that tonight’s scheduled guest was forced to cancel due to an unforeseen emergency. The show must go on however, so we found a willing replacement to assist us on such short notice. Ladies and gentlemen help me welcome Richard Hoak, drummer and lead vocalist of the band Total Fucking Destruction. Thank you for being here sir. Penfold, are you ready? “Yes Glen, I am.” “All right, let’s begin. Due to the nature of our guest’s vocation, we’re going to be asking after some music related issues. Here’s an easy one to get us started. Do you believe that the current state of music is getting better or worse? Mr. Hoak, you can go first.” “I long for and listen for a deathlike silence to engulf the planet. Otherwise, I listen to 24 hour news radio for the up to the moment information on the slow motion apocalypse that is unfolding around us.”* “Ha, very good! And you Penfold?” “I’m afraid my answer won’t be as interesting as Mr. Hoak’s. I’ve been listening to a wide variety of music lately, and I’m confident that music is better than it has ever been. Unfortunately, the albums I’m most excited about I can’t talk about thanks to a non-disclosure agreement.” “That’s too bad. We’ll just have to move on then. Mr. Hoak, when I think of what it means to be an underground act, and I mean this in a complimentary manner, your band registers in my mind immediately. Do you feel an underground band will break through to massive popularity this year?” “The only reason such obscure artistic concepts like the underground scenes of grind and death metal exist is because of the privilege and power provided to selected citizens by the global corporate economy that allows the leisure time and extra income to make such noise. No guitar riff is brutal when compared with watching your children slowly starving to death or dying an early, violent death in a religious war of hate. The underground scene is a state of mind, an artificial construct based on collective ego stroking by members of the ‘in’ crowd. I refuse to be defined by others, so my state of mind is unaffected.”* “Okay…I guess. Penfold, what say you?” “While I think it is more difficult than ever to really ‘break through’ to the mainstream consciousness, yes I do believe there will be some artist or band who has been toiling for a few years that will make that transition. It seems to happen once every year or two, so I’d say we’re due.” “I’m inclined to agree with your reasoning Penfold. Mr. Hoak, assuming Penfold is correct, what can you do to increase the marketability of Total Fucking Destruction?” “Total Fucking Destruction is driven to create temporary autonomous zones where we can celebrate the end of times in the style of Babylon together with other like-minded individuals. We encourage all individuals to get in touch.”^^ “What does that even mea…?” “Penfold, hold on a moment. I’m going to give Mr. Hoak a chance to further explain that statement. How exactly do you go about creating these temporary autonomous zones?” “Maintaining localized anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic atmosphere. Forgetting about unknown motherfuckers. Grind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Some days I don't eat or sleep, only grind. Time is running out, the future is now and we are participating in the end of history. It's fucking awesome.”^^ Glen and I sit in stunned silence. After a few moments, Glen collects himself. “Ladies and gentlemen we’re going to take a short commercial break, but we’ll be back with more after these words from our corporate sponsors.”
Cards on the table time waveriders. I know next to nothing about grindcore metal. Honest. I don’t yet own any grindcore albums, I’ve never seen a true grindcore band live, there are no stickers on anything I own advertising a grindcore band, and there is no chance that I would be able to differentiate a song by Napalm Death from a song by Carcass if my life depended on it. With all that being said I do know what I like, and I like Total Fucking Destruction!
The name of the album that has managed to hold my attention for a good little while now is Hater. It is the latest full length release from TFD, and it is composed of twenty seven ear-blasting songs. The uninitiated (like me) might make the mistake of looking at the quantity of songs on offer and assume that this was a monstrous two disc affair. Not so, as I quickly learned. These twenty seven songs lay waste to your eardrums in a little under twenty eight minutes. What I find most impressive is that I listened to this album multiple times before noticing the short running time. Hater is such a complete listening experience, I feel fulfilled with every run through. It was truly shocking to find out that some of my favorite songs had such short running times.
What should you expect to get from this album waveriders? Well, you should definitely expect a blitzkrieg assault upon your senses accomplished with lightning-quick guitar and bass lines coupled with mind-bogglingly manic drumming. You know…grindcore music. Now if that last statement produces concerns over whether these songs might become monotonous, fear not, for this band throws quite a bit of variety at the listener. Seriously, it is not difficult at all to tell these songs apart. Most are quite memorable thanks to huge riffs, crazy lyrics, interesting breakdowns, or unique song structures.
“Weaponization of the Mega-Self” opens the proceedings with the aforementioned blitzkrieg assault, functioning as a righteous call to arms for the rest of the album. Highlights abound. “Everything you Need but Nothing you Want” begins frenetically before transforming into this heavy groove monster. “It’s Only Attitude” brandishes it’s message of self-empowerment like a bludgeoning instrument. “Repeat Repeatedly” refuses to leave my conscious thoughts. “Green Fire” is thrashtastic and features a fantastic guitar solo! “Time Theft”, a virtual marathon run clocking in at two minutes and twenty seven seconds, bowls me over every time with this wickedly repeated upward-scaling guitar riff. Look waveriders, I could go on but I think your time would be better served by listening to this album for yourself. Do it! Do it now! With that, we now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
“All right, we’re back. I’d like to thank our two esteemed guests this evening. Penfold, great job as always.” “Why thank you Glen.” “And Mr. Richard Hoak, I’m not sure that we have ever had anyone on the program quite like you sir. Thanks for filling in on such short notice. Are there any last words you wish to express before the show ends?” “Nihilism, nothingness, emptiness and nonsense is the agenda of Total Fucking Destruction. Our songs are true stories of life in the modern day world. Our interest is in both the music and the message; our art is our only possible response to the complicated questions that post-modern society asks of the individual human.”* “Right! There is no way I can compete with that statement. Good night everybody.”
