Holy Sweet Jesus.

Best band press pic, EVER.

Apparently The Cribs are "the second coming of the Libertines". I've heard a couple songs and they're okay. You just have to big up a band whose photo has one of your members knocking out another band member. They totally deserve a little attention.

In other "news", now that we have that Top 25 silliness out of the way we can get to serious business: Sufjan Stevens, Dangerdoom, Prefuse Reads the Books, Yann Tiersen and Shannon Wright, assorted breaking news (as reported by Pitchfork) and if I can get the damn thing off Insound backorder, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.

Go A's.

The Cribs new album The New Fellas is out import only right now. They are opening for The Kaiser Chiefs and Brendan Benson 7/25/05 at The Fillmore.
