Brett Arnold 55 Posted June 28, 2013 Howard and Kulap bask in the glory of Summah on today's TWO CHARTED! Howard officially announces the first date of his Have A Summah tour (with the amazingly talented Kyle Kinane) before breaking down 'The Week That Was', and Engineer Stard shares some insight on the mixing process of HAVE ANOTHAH SUMMAH, which is available now via Bandcamp and iTunes. Kulap recaps her week of movie and television consumption, and the gang unbox more gifts sent in by you thoughtful Chartists. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post
PhillipMedoc 648 Posted June 28, 2013 Kulap's baby voice is making me feel feelings I didn't know I had. I'm not sure what to do with this, except to agree that it definitely needs to be all over Howard's next album. 1 Share this post Link to post
Todd Mason 21 Posted June 28, 2013 KV's "actual" singing voice is pretty damned great, actually. Interesting that that hasn't come up more in the past. Some episodes of the first season of AMERICAN IN PRIMETIME, particularly the sf episode (which tried to treat STAR TREK and LOST IN SPACE as congruent series...there was a lot that was goofy about the original ST, but...no.), are pretty lazy... Death, the band, didn't spring from nowhere, as good as they could be...consider such Detroit progenitors as the Detroit Wheels, ? and the Mysterians, and most saliently, along with the likes of Love and the JH Experience from elsewhere, the MC5...white boys who covered Sun Ra Arkestra free jazz in a rock context and otherwise were also playing speed-metal and protopunk, in 1968 vs. Death in '74 (and I have to wonder if Bad Brains were Death fans, perhaps not too long before the Brains gave up on being a jazz-rock fusion band)...

daveB from Oakland 364 Posted June 28, 2013 Seems like Ku, Howie, and Stard have reached a consensus about too much darkness and too much noisy destruction in summer superhero movies. I agree 100%. These movie producers need to lighten the fuck up and HAVE A SUMMAH. I propose a new superhero: Howard Kremer as Double-Gogg Man. 3 Share this post Link to post
seanotron 2307 Posted June 28, 2013 I dunno, I'm with Patton on this one. I loved Man of Steel. It didn't seem like that much of a downer to me. But then again, I've been waiting for what seems like forever to finally see Superman have a real fight on the big screen. Share this post Link to post
Kickpuncher 5012 Posted June 29, 2013 I thought Man of Steel was good enough, but agree that it was too dour and it also had a lot of logic gaps (which I try to ignore with movies like this, but didn't feel like it was smart/good enough to earn the benefit of the doubt on). Great episode. Loved the Behind the Music-like look at Wie & Stard's creative process. Also loved the revelation that "Lee" is basically Howard's own Tyler Durden - An alternate persona that allows him to say/do things (I DO WHAT I WANT) that he wouldn't say/do as himself. 1 Share this post Link to post

raxozellet 86 Posted June 29, 2013 Maybe Howard's twin is just Howard's Durden. No one ever sees her because that's Howard releasing himself into something else. Share this post Link to post
