Dan Deacon to score Francis Ford Coppola’s next film
Dan Deacon has somehow managed to become a divisive figure without actually doing or saying anything controversial. Apparently, the cartoon voices, his psychotically happy and celebratory music, his big glasses, his physique, his whole vibe pisses off a lot of people. Good. That’s what punk rock was all about.
Dan may be becoming a big celebrity, but he’s still just Dan in Baltimore, one of the many people making shit happen for themselves, a guy who very much is still involved in what’s going on around here. He’s into what he’s doing, and that’s what a lot of the people who leave nasty comments online don’t seem to understand.
Anyway, the big news lately is that Dan has been selected by none other than Francis Ford Coppola to compose the score for the legendary director’s next film, Twixt Now and Sunrise, which will star Val Kilmer and Bruce Dern. Sounds like it could be really rad, even if it’s really goofy. Go Dan.

Drawings of animals by Maria Elina
It’s funny that as alienated as we are from animals in this modern world, people still feel compelled to draw them as if it were one of our core instincts. Argentine artist Maria Elina does excellent drawings of anthropomorphized animals. Excellent, I say. Trust me, I look at the internet all day. Read more
Surreal sculptures by Ben Wheele
Honestly, writing about art (and music, for that matter) is kind of an awful task because good art speaks for itself. Such is the case with Ben Wheele’s surreal sculptures and videos. I use the word ‘surreal’ to describe 90% of the art I like not because I’m a lazy writer, but because there’s really not much more to say, and I like surreal and grotesque shit. Read more

Days Off is an incredibly catchy but smart punk band from Chicago. While they’re the best of what pop music through the ages has to offer, they’re by no means pop-punk. As infectious as their hooks and choruses are, there are enough off-kilter rhythms and complex guitar work to give their music a layered feel, putting them into a category all their own.
