Giant Drag

So yeah I've recently become obsessed with this band recently, Giant Drag. Its just a girl and a dude, but unlike the White Stripes, they are good. I guess best way to describe them is like a mix of grunge/Liz Phair/My Bloody Valentine/Helium/The Breeders and even some hints of trip-hop, and one strangely sexy sultry voice. Plus they dont take themselves too seriously, with cheeky songs like 'You Fuck Like My Dad' and 'Kevin is Gay', and the girl has a good sense of humor, seems humble. Great songs, and the album is one that gets better and better on each listen. Below is a video clip of them performing 'This Isnt It' at this years Coachella. Their album 'Hearts & Unicorns' is in stores now and available for download.

'I was wrong to have voted for George W. Bush'

'With a belated tip of the cap to Ralph Nader, the system is broken, so broken, it’s almost inevitable it pukes up the Al Gores and George W. Bushes. Where are the Trumans and the Eisenhowers? Where are the men and women of vision and accomplishment? Why do we have to settle for recycled hacks and malleable ciphers? Greatness is always rare, but is basic competence and simple honesty too much to ask?

I believe that George W. Bush has taken us down a terrible road. I don’t believe the Democrats are offering an alternative. That means we’re on our own to save this magnificent country. The United States of America is a gift to the world, but it has been badly abused and it’s rightful owners, We the People, had better step up to the plate and reclaim it before the damage becomes irreparable.'
