Peter V. Brett's The Daylight War



Will be released on February 12!!! Nice. I've fallen behind a bit in my reading. It's funny how no longer working at a bookstore impedes my knowledge of what's going on with my favorite authors (not that I miss retail - I DO NOT). I knew the third book in Brett's quintet was coming out in 2013, I just wasn't sure when. Imagine my surprise to look it up and find it's in a little over a week! Soooo cool. You can pre-order a copy here, or you can go to your local bookstore and buy it (if you're in the Southern Los Angeles area I recommend The Book Frog).

I talk about how I met Mr. Brett here - he actually gave me a copy of the first book in this series, The Warded Man and I am forever grateful to him for it.


Mutiny In Heaven - Nick Cave & The Cavemen - La Edad de Oro, London 1984



Whoah, watched this and didn't realize at first that it had Barry Adamson on bass and backing vox.

"From slum-chuch to slum-church, ah spilt mah heart
To some fat cunt behind a screen... " - beautiful Mr. Cave.

Brendon Cronenberg's Antiviral



When the heck is this coming out on DVD? I've been reading about it since it hit the festival circuit in the back half of 2012. Bloody Disgusting had words on it here but I'm not seeing much in the way of an American release.


He clearly is his father's son.

Marnie Stern's New Record...

I keep forgetting about this. The album, The Chronicles of Marnia is yet another record to look forward to in the first quarter of this year (out 3/19/13) Again, an artist Mr. Brown turned me on to when he sent me her album from 2008 which I am currently too tired to try and type out the title of.



The new record should herald a tour. You know who I think should open for Ms. Stern?

Ungrounded



Looks like a worthy artistic project to support - Eating the Internet? Tasting tv signals? Unfortunately I am broke at the moment. So looks like my contribution is viral!
