What a weekend. Friday marked the return of Travis Touchdown via No More Heroes 3 & even though I am only a few hours into the 4th video game in this series (the 3rd & newest NMH is actually the 3rd installment) by Suda 51 I am already glowing with praise. This is why I play video games.

Saturday I went down to Salazar's Records in Ventura & picked up "Flood" on vinyl by BORIS. Flood came out in 2000 but has never been pressed on wax until thirdman records got involved, thanks Jack. I did not pick up "NO", the most recent BORIS record which was also pressed & released this past Friday as I was lucky enough to secure the 1st OG Japanese pressing.

As I was venturing south past Ventura I ended up at the Roxy & saw Eyedress do a show, which coincides with his latest release Mulholland Drive. Yes I went to a live show, indoors and it was AMAZING. Eyedress and Zarah killed it and it was nice to be back in this element. Everyone in the club was moving and grooving as he tore through his catalogue of music. Big ups to LEX records for hooking it up.

Ended up staying the night and hit up a friend's engagement party before doing my New Noize thing the next day. Oh and what a New Noize it was. There is so much amazing music coming out its difficult packing all of it into 2 hours.

Let's just get this out of the way, whether you like him or detest the man known as Kanye West he is undeniably one of the most popular humans on the planet. Opinions aside his impact to the current zeitgeist is palpable & this is why Kanye West's "DONDA" is New Noize's Album of the Week

A producer you should get up on is Felix Weatheral aka Ross from Friends. His latest track (out on Brainfeeder) "The Daisy" is the New Noize Song of the Week.

Lastly I want to express my love and sorrow of losing an ICON and genre maker, one of the most innovative & eccentric humans, Lee Scratch Perry. His impact, contributions and artistry will leave a lasting mark on the story of humanity.

Better late then never, apologies for the tardiness. Life is coming at me at all angles so I'll keep it brief.

I played a bunch of metal as a red full moon was rising on Sunday night's set, it felt like the right thing to do.

New Noize's Song of the Week belongs to Alice Longyu Gao with "Kanpei". I don't know if she is just going to keep releasing singles but to be honest I don't care. Also how is she still not signed???

SO many amazing records dropped this past Friday but the one who has the coveted New Noize Album of the Week is KUNZITE with "VISUALS". If you are looking to fill the void that Ratatat left, KUNZITE got you cause Ratatat is on at least half of all the tracks on this full length.

Lastly I watched Snake Eyes, it was ok.

See you next Sunday.

This Friday saw the release of Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time AND IT WAS GREAT!!! So great that I bookended the start and finish of this past New Noize Sunday session with music from the latest release. Well, technically the first song I played was from 3.33 You Can (Not) Redo and the last song, "One Last Kiss" is the last song from Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time.

New Noize was stellar as always though there is a slight metal deficiency that will be corrected come this Sunday's set.

Song of the Week belongs to the Cots with "Flowers". They would have got my album of the week but Wednesday's full length LP "Twin Plagues" snatched that title this week.

Olympics DONE, Fiesta DONE, New Noize done & will keep on going. HI EVERYONE!!! We made it another week and it was a busy one! Some much to go through so I will give you skinny, lets start music.

So Donda did not come out this week & I love Kanye so I am looking forward to whenever he decides to release the album. If you watched his 2nd live stream of Donda you saw Yeezus ascend into heaven! Or if you were wearing sunglasses, the top of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

Kanye, however, was not the only person to have a surprise album drop this past Friday. Liars releases "The Apple Drop" and did a live secret show too boot & though they didn’t have a stadium to live in to finish up the album. Instead the Liars did a live set at Phoenix Central Park in Sydney, check the video here:

Liars "The Apple Drop" is the New Noize Album of the Week.

This weeks single was a HARD ONE as there was so much to choose from. In the end the New Noize song of the week is "SASAMI "Sorry Entertainer" Sasami rips through the whole track with heavy riffs and that post gunge noise which is personal fav of mine.

I saw a few movies in the actual movie theaters! 1st up the Green Knight, which I thought was incredible but is not for everyone. This flick was “artsy” and a touch Japanese in that there was not a lot of dialogue. Instead the cinematography did the talking along with the excellent set design, costumes, tripped out effects and hyper violence. Dev Patel really shined in his role and held the movie together as you saw this coming of age story. Not to give to much away but if you have seen the Temptation of Christ & liked it then set yourself up for the Green Knight.

I also saw the new Suicide Squad movie & IDK why everyone is hating it. It was a great ride, highly entertaining and made to be seen on the big screen. Rather than dive deep I HAVE to give ultimate props to Margot Robbie for being the best thing about this movie and her previous appearances as Harley Quinn. There is a specific scene/sequence that solidified Margot as Miss Quinn and OH MY BATMAN did she deliver. Clearly there was a focus on making her a main character with agency and a badass killer of killers. Great job writers.

Lastly this Friday its finally here, Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time. I will be watching the crap of this final film on Amazon prime, should we do a view party? I’m down.
