Meet
Jakob Lodwick of Blumpy.org. You may
be familiar with him because of sites like
this or
this.
Blumpy.org i s a bit of a step up, however, featuring some pretty nifty skits and a great
video-journal.
He has also made a
video for
Cex, Baltimore's soon-to-be legendary (any day now) basement rock god, whose site also has a huge
stash of excellent b-side material and another
video.
not the biggest sites, so go easy on'em and be patient.

Grandfather of the personal blog freaks out at age 30, after spending 11 years writing about the most
in
tim
ate
de
tai
ls of his life. From
the beginning, he was always brutally honest in a time long before it became so commonplace, before any of us knew where this internet business would take us. Naturally he recorded said freakout on video for the world to see, and more or less
shut down his
storied site. Can we take this kind of display at face value? Is it a bad case of someone substituting net life for the real thing? Is it all just effete whining? Or is this a genuine case of two loves colliding, and a man forced to make a difficult choice?

Have you reached the 13th level of rock and roll that is anti-folk? Do you
think using an 8-track recorder is selling out? If the phone rang while recording
a song for your album, would you try another take? Not if you were the
Moldy
Peaches you wouldn't. . . pansy. The Moldy Peaches are
Adam
Green and
Kimya Dawson. Their
first album, "the Moldy Peaches Greatest Hits" was most people's first
taste of anti-folk and it featured clever (and occasionally insane) songs recorded
in their apartment and subsequently rocketed them to
stardom.
In fact, they've just formed as a 6 piece and they have a
video
out. (The video is in realplay*buffering*er format)
But what exactly is anti-folk? The Moldy Peaches are pretty much all over the
place musically and other anti-folk artists are no different. Take
Jeffrey
Lewis, who's songs range from intricate
tales
(his first love is cartooning) of chance encounters with love to rockin' songs
