From the Multiversal Group Show at Art Basel Miami 2009, this cool time lapsed video created by Aleloop shows the evolution of the Buff Monster/Tara McPherson live painting featured at the show.

Hi- resolution photos and pricing information about the painting will be available soon on the Wizard Sleeve Toys website.

By "girlie" I  mean "groups with a female vocalist." I know that some of my "metal" friends will probably knock this post, so I will follow this up with an entry titled "Bands That You Probably Think Are Death Metal But Really Aren't." That should be entertaining.

1. Be Your Own Pet (http://www.beyourownpet.net/)

This band announced their last show about a week after I found out about them. High energy punk rock from Nashville, they sing songs about Zombies and cutting people. The girl has a good voice and is kind of cute. The music goes beyond basic power chords. Let's hope some of them re-form in another group, poppy punk is rarely this good.
