SaY What: Wax Fang, Sub Pop shoe, ‘Prince’ Billy
Bonnie "Prince" Billy has a new video out.
A few you stories you may have missed, but probably shouldn’t have
Pitchfork pointed readers to a video up about Bonnie “Prince” Billy. “Director Mike Aho’s video for the song features two kids competing to win Mardi Gras beads, with Will Oldham himself trapped Tron-style in a “Dance Dance Revolution” arcade machine,” Pitchfork posted. It’s a song from his new EP. Click here for the Pitchfork post or here for the actual video Pitchfork will point you toward.
Sub Pop did a lot of things to celebrate two decades of success. Festivals were thrown, cool deals were resurrected, and corporate shoe companies created an ugly high top in the label’s honor. It’s, uh, yellow? Click here to check it out on SaY.
The first coverage of Buster’s grand opening is now up on the InterWeb. Matt Jordan has some great Wax Fang photos and a pretty insightful blog post up about them. He points out it was strange they opened – which was my thoughts exactly – but also that they cranked out some new tunes. There’s not anything about Buster’s though, so I’ll keep you posted as I find news about that (checked every Kentucky blog and newspaper I know about – nothing). For now, check out Matt’s first review.
