<div style="text-align: left;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Thanks to <a href="http://electriccomicbook.wordpress.com/2013/01/20/the-doors-riders-on-the-storm-in-a-major-key/">Electric Comic Book</a> and the magic of computers, you now know how <b>The Doors'</b> <i>Riders on the Storm</i> would sound if played in a major key. <br />It sounds like the most<i> unsettling children's song ever</i>.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Amazing tale time: Did you know that <b>Freddie Mercury</b> once dressed <b>Princess Diana</b> like a male model so he could sneak her into a gay club for a night? I'm writing this on a Coleco, that's how 80s that sentence is. <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/diana/9963557/Freddie-Mercury-smuggled-Princess-Diana-into-gay-bar-disguised-as-a-man.html">The Telegraph</a> </span></li>
</ul>
<ul>

Don't just skip to the end, because they are funny, over there.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Wondering where all the cool indie, smooth sax pop records are? Yeah, I wasn't either, but </span><a href="http://www.fensepost.com/main/2013/03/29/renny-wilson-sugarglider-out-now-mint-records/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Fense Po</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.fensepost.com/main/2013/03/29/renny-wilson-sugarglider-out-now-mint-records/">st</a> makes a compelling case for <b>Renny Wilson</b>, "the epitome of what Ron Swanson's alter-ego Duke Silver <i>should</i> have created."</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But if you take the other side in that contentious, age-old, sax-versus-banjo battle (brothers against brothers!) <a href="http://whatsprotocol.com/2013/03/sunday-listening-red-summer-spirit-black-horse-motel/">What's Protocol </a> presents to you the amazing <b>Black Horse Motel.</b></span></li>

</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">...But by <i>God</i> I love a bad review. More than I like a good one. And <a href="http://www.bitcandy.com/posers/darwindeez/songsforimaginativepeople">Bit Candy</a> has a whole section just for bad reviews. My current favourite: "<b>Darwin Deez</b>: This Album Sounds Like His Hair." Fuck, this guy could have a blog just writing <i>titles</i> for bad reviews and I'd read. I'd read.</span></li>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Bon Iver</b> won't be performing at <b>Coachella</b>, but Justin Vernon will be. This time, the indie frontman and noted <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/13/bon-iver-grammys_n_1272975.html">passive aggressive Grammy speech-giver</a> will be backed by a very different group. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Completely bypassing any timid navel-gazing, bandmates <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;">Brian Moen (Peter Wolf Crier), and Phillip Cook (Megafaun)</span> bash out bluesy, old-school rock, as Vernon gives the autotune a rest to howl in his best Otis Redding. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The result is </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.theshoutingmatches.com/the_Shouting_Matches/SM.html">The Shouting Matches</a>,</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> a group that's been around and recording since 2008, but hasn't really put much out there, til now.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And how do they do? Well, <i>Mother When's the Judgement Gonna Come</i> has a raucus, I'm-totally-gonna-get-a-staph-infection-in-this-dive-bar feel to it, while the live <i>I Had a Real Good Lover</i> makes me want to lie on the floor, belting out lyrics in a whisky stupor. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So it sounds awesome. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Mouthoil, </i>their first EP is due out sometime this year. Probably.</span><br />

<a href="http://www.thebaybridged.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/hot-toddies-bottom-up.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.thebaybridged.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/hot-toddies-bottom-up.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I've always had a thing for hazy, garage-style girl groups. The love hatched in the still fledgling years of my musical development: I remember staring longingly at a Veruca Salt album wishing I had the $25 (in 90s Money!) to buy the CD.* Now music is cheap and easy to get, and I'm all grown up and can have as much as I want. But I'll never forget the ache for that <i>American Thighs</i> album and all the cool I thought it would bring into my life, and I still covet the discovery of those grungy girl bands. Thing is, my angst has waned; he early teens is not the early nineties, and Jimmy Stepchuk is not flirting with my prettier, cooler best friend anymore, so I can afford to lighten up.<br />
<br />
That's why I fucking love this EP.<br />
<br />
Taken as a whole, this is what it would sound like if Veruca Salt circa <i>American Thighs </i>travelled back in time to 1965, moved to California, popped some pick-me-ups, and cut an album to send to us, here, in the future. Which, y'know, is probably totally what happened. Science.<br />
<br />
The only thing <b>The Hot Toddies</b> did wrong was not make it a full LP.<br />
<br />
But I have all five tracks below, for your streaming pleasure. Or <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/the-hot-toddies/id201244753">buy it</a>.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Earlier today, DJ and producer Scott Hardkiss passed away unexpectedly, at the age of 43. He had </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">reportedly suffered an aneurysm.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Born Scott Friedel, the early 90's saw him forming the influential <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardkiss">Hardkiss</a> with "brothers" Gavin and Robbie. They would lead the way in the west coast/ Bay Area's developing electronica scene with their acid house/trance/psychedelia sounds and legendary warehouse parties, key to the development of the 90's rave scene. He also worked under the moniker <i>God Within</i>, defining an era with 1993's <i><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-F493KW8Egg">Raincry</a></i>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the late 90's Hardkiss moved to Brooklyn, where he continued DJing and producing under the name Scott Hardkiss (official<a href="http://godwithin.com/site/?cat=3"> site</a>), also working the musical end of film and television projects from the likes of Spike Lee and Wes Anderson. In 2009, he would <span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; line-height: 20px; text-align: start;">finally release his well-received debut solo album, </span><em style="background-color: white; color: #262626; line-height: 20px; text-align: start;">Technicolor Dreamer</em><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; line-height: 20px; text-align: start;">. </span> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm most a fan of his countless remixes for artists that include </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Flaming Lips</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">George Clinton</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Goodbye to a musician whose distinct hand effortlessly blurred the lines between what's hip and what's beautiful. Rest assured, he's remixing the tired afterlife into a better place.</span><br />
