boycrush: stephen malkmus

Eloy and I watched Lance Bangs' Pavement documentary on Sunday and it rekindled my love for Pavement, and Stephen Malkmus in particular. My iPhone search history is embarassing. I'll share some of my finds with you here, mostly so I can look at and read and watch all my favorite Malkmus things in one place.

girlcrush: faye orlove

Ok, so maybe I'm sorta biased because Faye is my friend AND she's drawn me on more than one occasion, but c'mon, how cool is she?! (check her tumblr here.)

She recently started working for Fox ADHD. I can't wait to see what her incredible mind comes up with next.

morning video: radiator hospital - our song

Radiator Hospital is Sam Cook-Parrott (and sometimes a full band). They released a full length album this year, recorded by the brilliant Kyle Gilbride of Swearin' (he also recorded the Upset album, so I might be biased). The album is called Something Wild, and this song is on it. The album version is incredible of course, but God DAMN this live performance is heartbreaking. Sam is fucking awesome. For the superfan geeks out there (like me) you can hear his wonderful voice alongside Katie Crutchfield on Waxahatchee - Peace and Quiet. I dare you to watch this video and not get choked up/fall in love with Sam. Oh! And Allison Crutchfield (also of Swearin') sings one of my fave tracks on the album, Are You Feelin' Me? Just a perfect album front to back. Check it out here.
