Austrian Death Machine
Austrian Death Machine is a metal band out of San Diego that fucking rules. All of their songs are named after Arnold Schwarzenegger movie quotes, such as “Get to the Choppa” and “Quaid”. How sick is that. Check em out.

24H Architects made this Ecological Activity & Education center almost entirely out of bamboo. Looks like a eco-friendly death star. I’d definitely take a girl back here.

Song of the Day
Can’t believe that we can’t find you a downloadable mp3 of this song, but you can listen to it here. I think a few summers ago I listened to this song maybe… over a thousand times. Saw the live in Denver (where they’re from) and they blew the audience away.

Legolomaniac
Some how Legos have withstood the test of time as one of people’s favorite toys. With unlimited construction possibilities and struggling social life, it’s amazing what a few nerds can do with these little plastic connectors. From building reproductions of their favorite movie moments, to making fantastic portraits, or even a life-size house. Well if this is your cup of tea then you...

BEAST : Reuben Margolin
Reuben Margolin mixes beautifully hand crafted scultures with kinetic engineering to create an elegantly organic sculpture. Like anyone, he started with nothing, teaching himself how to make a mechanical catapiller. From there the obsession took over and now he has reach levels of complexity in his sculptures that leave any viewer in some degree of awe. Check out the video below to see some...

Song of the Day
New Orleans produces good music, period. The Generationals is no exception. This Lo-fi pop trio is as original as they come. They’re made up of former Eames Era guitartis Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner. This song includes the vocals of that blonde cutie.
The Generationals - When They Fight, They Fight

Song of the Day
The Fox Hunt is a four piece band out of Martinsburg/Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia. They create a sound you want to hear in a jam packed cabin in the woods, whiskey in your hand, shirt off, sweating, stomping your feet, and on the shoulders of your best friend. They remind me a lot of Charlottesville & Richmond’s The Hackensaw Boys.
These guys will be playing at The Camel in...

The newly famous Atlas Sound just released an absolutely amazing video for their single Quick Canal. It’s based off of mid-century iconic American lifestyle shots, genius. The video is directed by Fitz Vladich and features the amazing voice of Stereolab’s Laetitia Sadier.
