THE TRUST FUND [SHAMELESS PLUG]
You may have noted (if you have done any link following from vdov.net) that my good friend and hipster scum, Bob Hammond, has dropped of the internet radar recently. Bob was the diabolic mind behind his now defunct site Rebel Jukebox, which was quite good while it lasted.
From the irridescent pink and yellow ashes of that site rises a muted blue and grey pheonix called The Trust Fund. The notable addition to this site versus Rebel Jukebox, is Sam Ubl of Pitchfork fame. I really like Ubl’s reviews on Pitchfork and look forward to a little Hammond/Ubl action. I am also tantalized by the seeds of an anti-”Nick Sylvesters, Julianne Shepherds, Tom Breihans, or Sasha Frere-Joneses” axis of some kind, though Ubl and Hammond seem to demur. The site is clearly in the very early stages of production, but our readers should look forward to some quality music inspiration from that direction. It is almost enough to make me want to write a music review… almost.
Seriously, I just started Googlewhack back up and Costa’s name still proves to be the number one go to; and by Costa’s name, I mean middle name that reminds you of a name for a bearded clam in a Disney Movie; and by movie, I mean a potential “Ariel Does the Marianas Trench.”
I actually have that film. And yes… Beardsworth the Bearded Clam is a primary character, sort of the anti-hero of the whole story.
In the spirit of unrelated comments, there are new pictures in my gallery: mountains.
