Richard Cheese - I'd Like a Virgin


Dick Cheese, in his own words, takes popular songs and "swankifies" them. This is awesome and hilarious (and after 4 months has not gotten old yet.)

Shining - Blackjazz

I'll be damned if this isn't one of the best albums of 2010 and it came out in fucking January.

If the drums alone don't make you shit your pants, maybe the saxophone will...or maybe this picture of the band:

Dark Time Sunshine- Vessel



Oh hey BEST HIP HOP ALBUM OF THE YEAR. No seriously, when a guest verse from P.O.S. ends up being more of a side show than a main event, something's going right.

Vessel

I don't care if you like Oceanic better. I like this one.

Get some post-metal in your life.
