The brand new Brand New

The first time I heard the band Brand New’s 2006 album The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me I was not prepared to be bowled over the way I was. I’d heard a little bit of the band before and had dismissed them as ‘Scream-O’. In retrospect the group’s early albums are a bit … Continue reading

GASH WEDNESDAY #21

Jelly Belly Jelly Beans. Are you supposed to eat one at a time? Are you supposed to know which ones you’re eating before you pop them in your mouth? Because I’ve been unceremoniously cramming small handfuls into my mouth, gang raping my taste buds with cute things like cherry and juicy pear and popcorn and … Continue reading

I planned to keep him and observe him, honoring him  the … Continue reading

Hey, It’s That One Guy # 6: Leland Orser

                There was a time within the 90’s when I felt that Leland Orser would be the ”next big thing”.  The fucker (Orser) has an on screen nervous-wreck/Woody Allen attitude that turns his secondary roles into something of recollection.  And his yang:  I’ve seen him perform with a ferocious variety.  Nuff said.              Orser’s career … Continue reading
