Re:

I totally fucked up this one! I got up last Thursday morning... *ah, I'll do a songfight for tomorrow*. Then I looked on the site and it said "due Thursday morning" so I wrote a chord progression quickly, recorded it, wrote lyrics, threw them on top (my mic was making a really weird crack...

Rack & Ruin Records

rackandruinrecords.com have a tonne of EPs/albums up for free download, many of them great! I'm Dublin Duck Dispensary as you might (but surely don't) know. I get the feeling that a few of the others on the label may also have been songfighters at some stage. It's pretty cool though, go seek! :mrgre...

"Anomaly: Deviation or departure from the normal or common order, form, or rule." I took the definition and did a song on fruityloops-and-glockenspiel, rather than my usual fuzzy-guitar-and-computer-drums. I couldn't think of a decent lyric with "anomaly" in it, so that's the bes...

The guy in it (Glen Hansard) is pretty much a hate/ lol figure in the Irish indie 'scene'. He's in a band called The Frames who are fairly popular here and aren't awful, but the guy himself is extremely irritating. I didn't see the film, but everyone I know is kinda watching bemused as he becomes in...

It was an amazing end to the series. Oh, just probably the best book I've ever read! JK apparantly wrote the epilogue in 1990 so that may explain its amateurish-ness. "All was well" bugged me until I read this. Still, that chapter gets the job done, despite letting us know that Harry went ...

I have a 6-track demo here, if you'd like to download it. I'd love it if you'd like to download it! One of the songs was written for songfight [King Me - now called Your Militant Working Boy].

Anyway, thanks! Also, my myspace is here.

I read an opinion of some critic who seemed pretty sure that he had the ending sorted.. it was to do with Harry being the 7th horcrux and so seemingly needing to commit suicide to defeat Voldemort. But this guy reckons that instead of killing himself, he can just abscond his magic and go about the r...

Dublin Duck Dispensary - All acoustic, or is that kazoo sound a synth? Interesting lyrics and production. I think songs like this get over looked too often, good job. Thanks mister.. The kazoo/synth sound is actually a fuzzed-up guitar! And there's more electric guitar in some of it too, but I'm gl...

Thanks for listening anyway, m'boy! I'm quite proud that my guitar was mistaken for a kazoo.. perhaps I shouldn't be? :D

The new Modest Mouse album title is like an Eggers' short story title. It's gonna remind me of him forever: 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank' Is 'What Is The What' good? I'd only be able to import it ($30 + postage, and it's a heavy-lookin' book!) and I'm not 100% I'd like it, even though it'...

This is the funnniest movie I have seen in a long time. The trailer pretty much lays out on the line the exact type of comedy it's going to be, which is the kind of comedy where the humor arises from the uncomfortablenesses that exist between a group of people who can't or won't communicate with ea...

I liked it but thought it'd be funnier.

I love these indie films but could've sworn that I read it was a "comedy", and it was no more a comedy than other "drama" films like it..

But that was my only let-down.

I'm about to get shootin' on Mao II by Don Delillo. I liked White Noise so then I tried Libra but the first chapter confused/bored me in equal measures.
