Battles
Saved by fortunate events, I managed to score a last minute ticket to the Battles second sold out show at the East Brunswick Club. Having toured with The Mars Volta, these guys create a huge magnitude of delicious sound. ‘Mirrored’ is a brilliant album, one of 2007’s best and when they performed the 7 minute epic track ‘Atlas’, the crowd soaked it up into a frenzy. More please!
Pop-culture roundup for June
Apologies for those people anticipating regular, new Hooverdust posts (ha!). Been incredibly busy with client/teaching work so I haven’t had the chance to put my heart and soul into the blog of late (but did I ever?). And I’m not going to lie to you, I’m not sure regular updates are in the cards any time soon. I’d really like to get on with building up the new site, streamline a few more things to make life easier. We’ll see what happens.
Regardless of all of that, here’s a few of my favourite pop-culture things of late I’d like to share to make up for some missing posts:

Jaden Smith is the new Karate Kid
I LOVE the first film so this is sacrilege. Plus Jaden is only 10 years old! Why not just make a different movie altogether? Via comingsoon.

Cracking Open the 4th Gen iPod Nano's
I tried opening my 4th Gen 40GB old skool iPod a couple of years back and broke mine. Don't try this at home! Via CNET UK.
Wall-E
Ultimately charming and heart-warming Pixar effort is a sheer delight from start to finish. Homage's to 2001, E.T and all your favourite childhood Sci-Fi movies are plentiful and just to realise so much emotion from an animated robot that hardly talks throughout the entire movie is a feat in itself. The Blu-ray version will be stunning!50 Amazing Gig Posters
