Tim Biskup Day!
Artist of the day is the incredible genius that is Tim Biskup. Among designing backgrounds for the Cartoon Network series Time Squad and creating short comics for Fantagraphics' Blab anthlogies he's also an accomplished and succesful painter. I highly suggest you thouroughly check out his site.
NEW WHITE STRIPES!
The White Stripes have become one of my very favorite bands over the past year, and their new album, "Elephant", is due on April 1st. The first single Seven Nation Army is already on the airwaves, and can be downloaded along with half the album already on Kazaa. (One version labeled Seven Nation Army is actually just Now Mary, but look up "white stripes - elephant" on Kazaa and you'll get the list of songs.)
I have to recommend the afformentioned new single, as well as The Air Near My Fingers, Ball & Biscuit, and definately The Hardest Button to Button. The entire album was recorded in 2 weeks on equipment no newer than 1963 and was made for something in the neighbourhood of $15 000 including accommadations. You'd never know though, the product is just as good if not better than their previous efforts. Oh, and Meg White sings on one track. I can't wait to buy it.
