The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust

New album from Saul Williams, produced by Trent Reznor. Includes a surprisingly more than decent cover of "Sunday, Bloody Sunday". Sort of following the Radiohead/every-indie-band-you've-ever-heard-of business model, you can choose to pay for this music (a more than fair $5) or get it for free. Paying the $5 gets you a higher quality mp3, but the free ones are already 192kbps anyway, so... you make the choice. I'm going to pay the $5 because Saul Williams is dope as hell.

Executive Koala

My god. I have found new inspiration in this world. Who says there's no such thing as an original idea any more? Although movies like Executive Koala could be cranking out of Japan on a regular basis, for all I know. This movie gained a lot of popularity in Japan and Australia , which is far too stereotypical to be ironic. Unfortunately, the film is only available without subtitles, which may or may not make it better. Only first-hand exposure will give real results. It will probably end up being something like The Ring, though, and turn us all into murdering salary-man koalas.

Anyway, Executive Koala, final review-- March of the Penguins meets American Psycho. All of the fluffy homicidal action you could want.
