This week was supposed to be psych rock songs with our friend, Ben Harrison, but alas, something came up as things often tend to do.

Bonus Mp3 (not for the faint of heart):Jungle----Electric Light Orchestra (ft. Sleepies and Haunted Castle)Well, it's taken three days to sift through the marathon of idiotic jabbering that took place on Sunday, but UTD Episode 6 has arrived. We struggled for hours over how to edit all the material down to a concise, thematically cohesive hour of music and discussion. That pretty much failed.

Apparently Metallica believes that the future of music lies in releasing albums through "Guitar Hero" and similar styled video games. That's just great fellas. It's definitely more important to appeal to the army of PlayStation 3 rapscallions who would rather acquire their music collection via television speakers than to those loyal fans who may not have contributed to Lars Ulrich's new,

Last month’s news that Touch and Go Records planned to stop releasing new music made us pause and chew on the following facts:1) Touch and Go began as a fanzine during the Carter Administration.2) Big Black’s Songs About Fucking came out when our genitals were used only for waste management purposes.3) When Slint, Jesus Lizard and the Butthole Surfers recorded and released their iconic albums we
