Get your DDR dance pad out of storage! LINUS will be featured on DDR Universe 2 on the XBox 360 this winter!



LINUS! has hit the big time with our very first video game song. It's been in the works for a while and I may have slipped up and told a few friends prior to the confirmation a few times but what can I say, I was excited. You'll be able to dance to your heart's content as LINUS jumps out of obscurity and into the hearts and minds of DDR loyalists. We've worked our song "Arrivals and Departures" into pop culture history! Other artist featured on the game include Outkast, Kool and the Gang, The Bangles, and Franz Ferdinand.

Cool, someone gave me a lesson in photoshop.

Do you like the new graphics? I'll keep working on updating all the pages.

Efterklang Mirador


So I clicked through youtube to see what was on today and who do I see featured on the front page? A video by my two danish friends Sophie and Nanna! I like how the trees are colored and I like how the main character walks. I wish I could manipulate and create that kind of digital color. Congrats you two!

Wow! I'm impressed


I have two new Radiohead tracks from the new album In Rainbows. I thought "Faust Arp" was self indulgent but "15 Steps" is sooo good. So good I'm going to listen to it again. It sounds like Bjork and Thom are feeding off each other's scraps.

VHS or BETA


What a tight album. I love the guitar tones. "The Stars we Came From" sucks but the rest of the album is really good. I love the intro to "Love in my Pocket" even though the chorus sounds like a bad attempt at a beach boys arrangement without enough movement. And there's even an asian dude in the band! Listen to the album on myspace

A.R.E. Weapons


I can't stop listening to "Confusion is the SIgn Today" by brooklyn-ites A.R.E. Weapons.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!



Finally got back from our tour of the East Coast with many experiences that will stay with me for a lifetime. I've got to fill orders for "Local's" slippers this weekend. Apparently the local brand slipper is big on the east coast due to its inclusion in the Urban Outfitters catalog. I will come through for sure.

Anyway, I think I can speak for the rest of the band when I say that we all had a great time. We saw a band called Lowercase Blues after a bunch of people suggested that we catch them at the Dewey Beach Music Festival. The response to our set was mixed. I don't think we played loud enough.

When we got back, I went to one of Tim's shows with Upstanding Youth and stayed in the back during most of their set. Coupled with the shows we witnessed on the east coast, that show made me think about the incentive for going to shows. I don't want to hear someone whine or showoff. I want to be entertained, lose myself in the music. As an attendee, I want to get something out of the performance.

I've been thinking of a new name to encompass the new direction I want to take with music and I think I stumbled onto it last night whilst watching Family Guy. "GLADIATOR MICE." Check out the clip. Nonsense. Like the band Fujiya and Miyagi. As the famous ancient greek philosopher Heraclitus said, “Expect the unexpected, or you won’t find it.”
