Vampire Weekend covers Rancid Indie rock fans had a collective WTF moment yesterday when blog Abeano Music posted an MP3 of Vampire Weekend's cerebral take on Rancid's 1995 pop-punk classic "Ruby Soho." Link: http://www.abeano.com/blog/new-vampire-weekend-ruby-soho-rancid-cover-and-minimix The heavily buzzed-about neo-Afro-poppers yank the fangs from the original, but the spacey cover is a nostalgic treat.

If you had attended the "burlesk" festival and then gone out to a modern strip club, I can guarantee you would had two wildly different experiences in terms of the sexuality on display, the talent level, the sexual and financial politics, and your overall enjoyment. You say "stripper" like it's a bad thing, but the neo-burlesque performers (which include a couple men) are quite another phenomenon.We can argue about roller derby later. [...] |

I agree with Sophie. Being an artist myself I constantly watch the hipster artsy fartsies make up rules to try and back up ideas such as burlesque or roller derby. No one really cares about the derby, it's just scantily clad chicks putting on a show for the guys. Sure most of the girls are kind of punk. [...] |
