OTD Exclusive: Mighty Mighty Bosstones
By webteam

LISTEN: Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "The Impression That I Get (Dub Blend)" (mp3)

Hi. The Bosstones are broken up, supposedly. But something funny just landed in our in-box. And if it hadn't come from who it came from, we wouldn't be posting it. But let's just say we're pretty sure they want you to hear this. So as not to spoil the surprise, we'll keep the description simple: when we cue this up, RealPlayer tells us it's from the MTV Mashups album.

And the award for laziest CD-single-sticker copywriter goes to . . .
By webteam

. . . Mark "Hydrahead" Thompson. Let's give Mark a round of applause, and welcome him to the blog game. (Pelican jumping on an Opeth tour? How can anyone be mad at that?)

Actually, Mark's holding a real Emmy, which belongs to his girlfriend. But let's pretend it's one of those cute little paperweights they were passing around at the saddest night out in the USA, a/k/a the Boston Music Awards

"I look like the fat girl from Heart"
By webteam

Before the esteemed Mercury Prize mantle, before allegedly making Lou Reed teary-eyed, before blog-rolling Boston college girls chatted about him on the Green Line (we eavesdropped on one such hilarious conversation last week), androgynous cabaret singer (chanteuse?) Antony performed at the Oni Gallery, a dearly-departed Chinatown loft space.

1. How many bridge-and-tunnel glossies does it take to give Aerosmith's singer a handjob? Both of them, apparently. We love a front row seat for a nasty media war, and Boston Magazine has apparently fired off its opening screw-you in the general direction of incoming interloper Boston Common, a new high-end, large-format admat that's shelling out gazillions in an effort to become the new bible for our fair city's sorta-rich and barely-famous.

Even Though He Didnt End Up Get
By webteam

Even though he didn't end up getting the NEP slot, D-Tension is still That Dude. Tonight: him and the Commonwealth Records posse team up with dem Leedz boyz and 97.7's Mr. Peter Parker for a rally in the alley. There's a mixtape to go along with it, the best part of which might be the bonus track:

Stooges Play Central Square World's Fair
By webteam

The Stooges (top two: JazzFest, 2004, at Louisiana Music Factory; above, in their previous incarnation as the Lil' Stooges, at Ernie K-Doe's funeral, New Orleans, 2001)

"In New Orleans, the brass bands are street-bred. Their chops can handle tricky jazz arrangements, and their second-line rhythms (laid down by drums and tuba) can morph into dancehall raps or straight hip-hop.

OTD Exclusive: Rainbow Bright
By webteam

LISTEN: Rainbow Bright, "The Rollah" (mp3)

Rainbow Bright, aka Jay Flower and Mike Uzzi, met at the New England Conservatory back when they thought electronic music was crap. Years later, they're cutting one of the hottest techno tracks of the year. As part of the Unlocked Groove collective, they have been in the lab experimenting and trading ideas with other carbon based life forms.
