"Loud noises!" - This guy

We are getting a late start today because sometimes we need late starts. In college I got a lot of late starts. A lot. I’m not in college anymore so the number of late starts I get anymore has sharply decreased but the need for late starts really hasn’t. I’m not sure what I’m trying to say here because I got a late start and my brain is still wondering what parts of last night actually happened.

We (I) need some energy to help wake me up. So how about a new video from Kele Okereke?

Kele Okereke may or may not have been fired from Bloc Party or Kele Okereke may or may not have quit Bloc Party. Either of those situations I’m not a big fan of because I am a big fan of Bloc Party. But the dude does have a new EP coming out soon and here is a new song/video from that EP “What Do I Do”.

Whoa. Looks like Kele’s been hitting the gym. He probably has to get up early for that…

"A - C - D" - These guys

This is an old video but I don’t care. I like it. I like the song a lot too. And since we have kicked all the rules for Friday Dance Party to the curb then I am reaching back and putting up a sing that I just want to hear right now. That’s how this shit is gonna roll today.

The video is awesome. Just plain awesome. Giant fighting robots and monsters is never not awesome. Never.

So here is the video for Bloc Party’s “Flux:”

Bloc Party has been on hiatus but a couple of the dudes in the band have said that Bloc Party will be reconvening this summer. Awesome.

"Cheers!" - This dude

I know Bloc Party raises some pretty serious emotions in a lot of people. For many they became a poster child for disappointment and “bad” change in bands. Whatever. I like them. They are allegedly getting back together this fall, which is cool because I like them, but in the meantime they are all kinda doing their own things.

Drummer Matthew C H Tong has a new song. Want to hear it? It’s pretty good. Not great, but pretty good. Click here to download the “Present and Correct” courtesy of RCRD.LBL.

That’s it for me… I’m outta here and headed to New Jersey! Yuck.

June is national Gay Pride Month… in case you didn’t know. To celebrate we’ve got a couple videos from some prominent (and awesome!) gay artists; Tegan and Sara versus Kele Okereke. Tegan and Sara released Sainthood last year and Kele released Boxer last week.

So enjoy these videos, vote for your favorite.

Last week’s winner, Franz Ferdinand, has been sent to the winner’s circle.

"Ouch!" - this guy five minutes later.

Even more music! It’s never gonna stop!

Kele Okereke, who you may remember from his stint as Bloc Party (R.I.P?) lead singer, has a new solo album hitting the interwebs soon titled Boxer. We’ve posted a couple songs from the album already and today MySpace is streaming the whole gosh-darn album! Yay!

So click here if you want to head over to said MySpace page and listen to Okereke’s first solo album.

Jeez… all this new music is getting me all discombobulated. Is that the right word? I don’t know, I was never good at math. Just kidding. I was good at math. I was good at math and good with the ladies. Just kidding. I was never good with the ladies.
