Mike Patton's Peeping Tom & another night out with The Sick List

I figured that if I sit plugged into music all day while selling Booze, I should at least share some of the great shit I come across.....For the last 2 weeks or so, thanks to a review on Crown Dozen’s Blog , I've been listening to a few songs off Mike Patton's new album everyday. It's called Peeping Tom and it's some of the best shit he's done since the first album of Mr. Bungle. The entire album is collaborations between him and a slew of amazing aretists: Bebel Gilberto, Norah Jones, Kool Keith, Massive Attack, Rahzel, Dub Trio, Odd Nosdam, Amon Tobin, Kid Koala, Dale Crover, and several of Patton's Bay Area running buddies, such as Dan "the Automator" Nakamura, and Jel, Odd Nosdam and Dose One of hip hop collective Anticon. It wasn't until then that I realized Dub Trio, which are amazingly innovative mfers, are signed to Patton's label Ipecac. URB and Zygo did an event with them over a year ago at Joe's Pub. There were about 5 bands, but Dub Trio just blew everyone away and now I'm seeing their name all over. Their track on Peeping Tom is my highlight, but every track is worth buying. If anyone gets word of them playing here you better give me a heads up.

Check out the pics section too. You'll see we had another night with Emily and The Sick List. They're definitely coming together as a band and I'm glad to see Emily any time! And of course it helps that they played at R & R on 14th, which is a recent Zygo account. It's the only haven for tattooed metal heads in the Meatpacking district, so you know it makes me happy. There was also this strange man lying in front of the bar completely wrapped in a rug, with a hole cut out for his face. Well, look at the pics and you'll understand.

Also check out this band from Stolen Transmission … Monty Are I – Pretty badass and you have Sarah to thank for bringing them to the masses.

Well, this week should be fun, and if you're down -come to Galapagos Art Space in Williamsburg for an event we're sponsoring Thursday night. Or Come the birthday of one of our favorite agents of the Zygo
cause, Nico Reyes of the Reed Space & Staple Design. WE LOVE YOU AND THANK YOU!
