I Wanna Punch Glenn Beck (Glenn Beck in the neck)

Music and lyircs by me.  Last year some friends and I tried to start up a punk band in NYC called either Sweatband or Night Sharks, and I wrote this song for us.  We quickly discovered that it's hard to start a punk band when you're all in your early 30s.  We would try to practice, but we would often have to cancel for very non-punk rock reasons.  Chris had to work late.  I was volunteering.  John was at a wedding in Costa Rica.  So guys, if you're not snowboarding in Vermont or taking improv classes this weekend, I might be able to skip my wine tasting to make room for band practice!  Watch/listen above and/or download the free mp3 here.  Oh, and also, Glenn Beck sucks, obvs.

NO DEPOSIT, NO RETURN (Anton Webern vs Henry Rollins vs Captain Hollywood)

Here I've sliced-and-diced the first page of Webern's "Variations for Piano, Op. 27" (1936), added a beat suitable for the breakdancing stylings of Captain Hollywood (1983), and sprinkled in some spoken word from the A-side of Black Flag's "Family Man" (1984) for added seasoning.  I love how my friends and mash-up masters The Hood Internet make songs dance and groove in ways that they don't in their original forms, so that's basically what I'm going for here, ZILWAUKEE-style.  Check out the video above and/or download the free mp3 here.  Original source music below.  Fotokopieren gesetzlich verboten.

THUNDERSNOW
