The Panderers have a new EP
Last year I purchased “Songs that Bang,” a self released album by The Panderers and loved it. They are a band that when you listen to them, it seems like you may have heard them before somewhere. The songs all have a tune that would get stuck in your head for days.

Scott Wynn, the singer/songwriter for the band, grew up with deep east Kentucky and brings his deep southern sound to all his songs (also influencing the video below). With Dave Wilder (Macy Gray/Liz Phair) on percussion and bass, Andrew Livingston (Mike Doughty’s Band) on bass, and Pete McNeal (former Cake drummer) on drums.


The new EP, “Hotshot’s Boy (EP) - Snack Bar - 2008″ can be PURCHASED HERE for $7.
“This EP, produced by Pete McNeal and Dave Wilder and released by Snack Bar, a record label created by Mike Doughty (former frontman of Soul Coughing), has received critical acclaim for its stark, back-to-basics-yet-eclectic roots rock nature. This EP sold wildly on our first national tour this Spring and it put The Panderers on the map by having us named XM Radio’s Radar Report Featured Artist, KCRW’s Top Tune, Ourstage.com’s Top Ten song and video. You can buy the EP in CD format from this site, or you may download it from I-Tunes, Amazon.com or most any online digital music retailer. Your reviews of the EP are important to us, so please leave them at the various sites that you purchase the EP from.”

Radar: “Secrets of a Hipster Hooker.”
“The author’s friends are stylish, well-educated, and professionally successful young women in New York City. They also turn tricks on the side for $2,000 an hour. One day she decided to follow in their footsteps.”

Soon the three women were hitting what Heather calls “douchebag spots” in the Meatpacking District—bars and clubs frequented by the kind of guy who’s happy to drop a few grand on bottle service. “A lot of rich men approached us, and we thought, Why the fuck not?” Heather says. The women expanded their client base with other, classier men they met at parties, and discreet referrals from existing customers. With new prospects—especially ones they met at bars—they were always careful to get a full name and an occupation and to do some research online. “If they are Googleable, that’s always a good sign,” Olivia explains. Beyond that, the women generally accept new clients only if the men “feel” right.

AppVee is an iPhone App review site.
They have a mix of user reviews and official AppVee reviews. They rate each application depending on the type of application, so it’s a really in-depth review. They also have the reviews organized by type of application so if you’re looking for a particular type of App, it will be pretty easy to sort through. Each official AppVee review comes with a video and a few screenshots of the App.

Alexander Diaz has done a series on his mother’s eccentric objects that dominate her life called, “Still Lifes From My Mother’s House.”

“For me, these still lifes are layered in meaning and history and go beyond mere decorations. Her arrangements, like any successful fabricated still life throughout art history, are thought provoking and cleverly juxtaposed. These still lifes are not only informative of an individual, they are also testaments of a culture that is based on consumption.” –Diaz

It comes out in Japan late August, no idea when it’s coming to the states.

The Polaroid is coming back!
I think everyone let a small tear with the news that Polaroid was being discontinued. But there is news that they are bringing it back as a digital point-and-shoot camera with a built in PoGo Bluetooth printer that will print 4″x 3″. No telling if there will be an option to add white frame that made Polaroids so distinguishable.
