When the internet gives you lemons, you throw those lemons back in it's face and say fuck your nasty ass lemons, I'll use my own tastier lemons. So here is a track from Phantom Planet's 2003 album The Guest... and yes that's Jason Schwartzman on drums. But get over it, they are amazing besides that fact that Jason is amazing. So I'll be behind the wheel over here at Left As Rain Headquarters for the next week. So buckle up.

Beck? Relevant again? While a huge departure from the Beck we're all accustomed to I have to say this new direction is rock solid. I remember the first time I saw Beck perform - It was 1997, I was at the HFStival waiting for the Prodigy to come on and fire start. Beck comes on and just cries his little weird heart out during his set, as a 14 year old stoned boy I just had so many questions. Now that I'm a grown 30 year old stoned adult... I still have so many questions.

4th of July is upon us - that time of year where inevitably get burned by a rogue firework. I'll be in my living room this year so if I get hit by a firework it will be amazing.
This track reminds me of the first time I listed to The Avalanches or Go Team!. Speaking of The Avalanches - Avalanches, are you out there? I'd make a deal with the devil for one more Avalanches album. I've been waiting patiently for thirteen years...
