One may be inclined to do some horrible things when it rains. For me, these “horrible things” take shape in waxing nostalgic about the recent and not-so-recent past. Unearthing photographs, looking at old por… traits, you know, pigtails and lollipops and – I mean, I’ve heard this happens to friends of friends.


This particularly rainy afternoon led to some file cleanup and Panther. Way back when I stumbled upon Panther’s music, it was a solo project complete a stage act Charlie Salas-Humara dubbed “floor dancing” – some weird and wonderful wriggling that was a staple at his shows.

Panther 002

Since then, Panther has grown into a duo, which now includes Joe Kelly, a more recent album release by the name of “14 KT God” and “Entropy,” a even more recent LP. Both are worth a listen (further than just pressing play on this page forever) so go purchase the rest! As for an “about the music” I am not in the habit of prescribing what you should do with the music you listen to (i.e. “this is perfect for a roadtrip with your mom!” or “Rock out to the melodious whatever in this song!” ) I’m just going to leave you with a few tracks for your listening pleasure. Toodles!

What's on the menu?

What's in this thing, you ask? Well, we've got images, and features, and interviews, and articles, and short bits, and long bits, video posts, sound posts, lists and series, the local, the worldly, the controversial, the inane, and sometimes, if you look closely, the not-fit-for-print (which, of course, we'll just print anyways). Mostly old stuff, and new stuff. You know... the usual.
