Yeah Yeah Yeahs vs Elite Force “Maps” (MP3)

Earlier this week we revealed the Yeah Yeah Yeahs as our readers’ favorite rock artist of the year, and to wrap up the week we have a remix of the YYYs “Maps” done by Elite Force. The classic is mashed with the JELO remix of Monolythe. Kick it up a notch!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs “Heads Will Roll” (Video)

The latest video from the YYYs is like a condensed version of Michael J. Fox’s after-school special Teen Wolf with a Michael Jackson tribute starting with the werewolf donning the iconic white-socks-suit look and a light-up dance floor. Karen O is in fine form and attire–theatric without bordering on parody (cause that’s Lady Gaga)–and when the werewolf attacks, we get a shower of red confetti.

Cool Cats x Fool’s Gold = Fool Cats! (MP3)

Fan of Ed Banger Records? The electronic music label home to the likes of Justice, Crookers, DJ Mehdi, SebastiAn Uffie, Feadz? (and the list goes on…) Well, why not express your appreciation for the powerhouse label by sporting a T-Shirt off of their awesome 2009 released line, Cool Cats. I came upon an especially great Fool’s Gold (the Brooklyn based music label home to personal fave, A-Trak) and Cool Cat T-shirt collaboration the other day, and immediately fell in love. Said T is designed by Fool’s Gold art director Dust La Rock and features a badass cat sporting some fly shades, smoking a cig, and drinking Champagne, just like every Cool Cat should. Check out some other Ts and Goodies here, and enjoy some Ed Banger + Fool’s Gold faves below:
