You can stream the entire album by Satellite Party, Perry Farrell’s new musical project, over on their MySpace page. I’ve been listening to it this morning, and while it’s not the worst thing out there, I don’t see myself illegally downloading buying it anytime soon.
I understand the creative urge to keep producing new product, but like Harrison Ford’s film career, I feel like each project Perry does tarnishes his earlier work which was nothing short of amazing.

CD Baby may have one of the worst logos on the web, but I can’t think of a place to buy CDs with more personality. During the checkout process of ordering the latest aether album, they asked if I had any special requests. They said I could ask for “anything.” So I asked that they draw smiley faces on the shipping envelope. I thought the request would throw their shipping department into an uproar.
But then the package arrived and there they were: five smiling pen strokes.
Somebody actually listened to me. Try getting that kind of personalization out of your favorite retailer’s supply chain process.

The Beastie Boys have released track info from their forthcoming disc The Mix Up. They also claim it’s going to be all instrumental. That would be kind of a bummer, but with The Beasties you never know when they’re kidding and when they’re not.

Never have I loved a musician while equally hating their website. Luckily, the Ted Leo website was finally redesigned. I’d love to see an RSS feed for Ted’s news/blog area, but I’ll take what I can get.

Donewaiting.com writer Chip Midnight has launched yet another new website, Atomic Ned. Named after the column he ran on this very site, Chip says Atomic Ned is going to be his one-stop shop for just about everything he writes for himself.
I think he’s taking this one pretty seriously, considering his baby Swizzle Stick actually redirects to the new Ned site…
