Check out the band Forgetters, they are awesome. They have a double 7" you can buy if you are cool or you can buy it digitally if you suck. Either way though support them, they are awesome.
My band's own 3-song EP is out today too on Derby, UK label Stressed Sumo. Unfortunately we suck as it's only available digitally but despite the fact I couldn't find it on iTunes myself it's out there on the web somewhere. There are a bunch of reviews online too, most are good, but seriously why the fuck do we keep getting compared to Rage Against the Machine? We don't sound anything like them and they suck too. Rabble (ok, overall, unrabble actually)-B

Axel Hawk!
So it's been a while folks. Sorry, one reason is my computer decided it didn't like me anymore so it just kind of quit doing what I wanted it to. So first is a short list of things that make me rabble: computers, doctors, chiropractors, trash in the ocean, shitty bands, clouds in tropical places, Egypt's Mumbarak suppressing the will of the people for 30 years, not recycling glass, being the only person who eats meat out of seven at a table. Sigh...
Whale Tails: I'm not talking about the giant spoilers on '80's Porsches that totally kick ass, but a girl's (or guy's I suppose, if that's you're thing) thong wedged way up her ass sticking like a foot up over the top of her pants. I don't care if you have a good body or not it is in no way attractive. How can you be oblivious to your thong pulled up around your bellybutton? It can't be comfortable, it looks like you're being attacked by your underwear. Or is that how you like to wear it? Is it empowering, or maybe a fashion statement? I hope not because it's gross people. Put that shit away.
Yes, I stole this picture from Break.com
What also pisses me off is extra airline fees. Specifically the baggage fees. I know the airlines are losing money (I also know this is going to turn into a run on sentence) and no one wants to pay what it costs to fly so the public would rather think they are getting a good deal on a ticket and then get nickel and dimed on the back end, but seriously, I'd so much rather pay $20 extra for my ticket then have to deal with all the retards that think they can cram a week's worth of clothes, gear and personal crap for a tropical vacation into a carry on the size of Texas and six other bags strapped to their person and then roll all their shit onto the plane and try to jam it all into the overhead and, "Did you really think that bag big enough I could actually climb into would actually fit into the overhead, you dumbshit?!", then the people who get on first fill up all the space so the people who board later, sitting in front, don't have room to put their giant fucking bags in the compartments over their own heads. Then the flight attendant has to come over and explain to the morons trying to shove their bag into a full space (believe it or not physics dictates that two separate objects cannot occupy the same space, go figure right?) that they will have to put their bag somewhere else and as a byproduct get their huge, exposed, sunburned beer gut out of my face, while I do my best to close my eyes and remain calm and listen to music really loud on my iPod before I'm forced to turn it off and sit in the personal hell that is a sealed plane sitting on the tarmac for God knows how long prior to takeoff. But the plane is delayed anyway because of all the aforementioned chaos and absurdity and the fact that the flight attendants can't prepare for departure on time and want to strangle 75% of the passengers on the plane before take off. All for and extra $20...
What makes me unrabble is solar roadways. Think about turning all of our roadways, or even just our highways into solar panels that we drive on. We could cleanly power everything everywhere and the power grid would already be set up. Roads go everywhere so the grid is already set up. The problems that it would at least partially solve... Foreign oil dependence, fossil fuel use, air pollution, water pollution, rising costs of asphalt, dammed and dying rivers, dangers of nuclear power, unemployment and many more. "Yeah, but, we can't drive on glass. That's stupid." Not glass like the windows in your house idiot. Technology is the wave of the future, and with glass and solar is actually already here, and this enormous project could be realized but we just have to do it! Watch this video, it's awesome Solar Roadways

Dear Earth, are you drunk?
Because your extra wobble caused by the moon feeding you an inordinate amount of booze is creating quite a stir in the human community here. Now we have a new constellation and sign called Ophiuchus. Oph-a-what? How do you even pronounce that? So by jamming a new one in there I am no longer a Gemini, twins, which always sounded kinda cool, I get to be a Taurus. Really? I know it's supposed to be a cool bull but all I think about is a shitty sedan built by Ford. What the hell man?
Well it doesn't matter anyway because the astronomer from Minnesota who lit this firestorm said his comments were taken way too far and he was just suggesting (and certainly not for the first time) that, because of actual astronomical realities, the Earth rotates on it's axis due to the moon, so we see different constellations now than the Babylonians. Apparently there's a 30,000 year cycle so in another 26,000 years we'll see the same things up in the sky as the Babylonians, or something like that. I'm sure that's not exactly what happens but it's close. What it really means though is... oh, wait, it doesn't mean shit because astrological signs are stupid and your horoscope means nothing. While we all may argue about true religion and divinity is, this is not. The Babylonians made it up and some fat, perm haired, Diet Coke swilling, white trash chick with backboobs is writing your horoscope and making money when your dumbass buys one at the store or picks up a Reader's Digest. So just shut up and go back to your real life that isn't affected by your astrological sign which you never cared about on a day to day basis anyway. Rabble-B
PS-I will be roughing it in Hawaii for the next ten days so the rabbles may be far and few between. Feel bad for me.

The Grand Camyon State
So first of all, you have to be the scum of the Earth to move a notch above the retards from the Westboro Baptist Church who protest military and pro-choice peoples' funerals. But let me hand it to you fucknut, socialist gunman guy in Arizona, you eclipsed those idiots who, now because of your dumb ass, are trying to picket the funeral of, among others, a 9 year old girl! Seriously, it's fucking insane. At least you didn't kill yourself after your shooting spree like all the other assholes who massacre people and then kill themselves. If we're lucky you won't get the luxury of sitting on deathrow for 20 years, you'll get life in prison where you get to become some giant, gangster dude's little bitch when he find out your a fucking child killer!
But guess what, despite Arizona's new immigration law that made even me, the whitest white dude, carry his passport when he went down there, it's a pretty cool state. Not just because they have the Grand Camyon but because in less than 90 minutes of a state congressional session this week they passed a law prohibiting the picketing of funerals just so the assmasters from Westboro couldn't desecrate the funerals of innocent the victims, including the funeral of, I repeat, a 9 year old girl. So good on ya Arizona, or Bearizona as I like to call it, for standing up to insanity and intolerance and giving it the finger. It's a tiny amount of justice and consolation for those lost but it just feels so good in the face of such needless violence. Rabble and Unrabble-B

Gay Only Toilets-WTF?
So this year for Carnival, in Brazil the festival organizers have installed "gay only" toilets, which also include transvestites. Now, I know you're probably thinking what I was, "Is Brazil really that anti-gay? Do they think they're going to contract full blown gay if they share the same porta-potty as a gay dude? What the fuck man, I thought Carnival was a giant party full of people from all walks of life just having fun (except for the pickpockets, gangsters and roofie sporting rapists of course)." Well, yeah, it is. The gay community wants the toilets. Seriously. Some gays said they'll feel more comfortable using a gay only toilet.
Yeah, well I'd feel more comfortable using a toilet that only I had the key to and was heated to 70 degrees F, always had a hot bacon cheeseburger ready for me to eat, a 55" plasma screen with Wes Anderson movies playing and a hot chick give me a blow job before I left, but guess what? That's fucking ridiculous!
How much of a backward mindset do you have to posess to advocate for gay only, or for that matter, straight only toilets. And you're playing right into the anti-gay activists hands people. It's no different than black and white only bathrooms the South had that we GOT RID OF finally in the 60's. Haven't we gotten past this yet? Really, I know many muslim and some African countries still persecute gays but haven't we, in the first world, the world or reason and faith and freedom and prosperity made it past this kind of shit? As fruitless as it probably is, aren't we hoping that the entire world will someday just chill out and just live and let live? Come on people, get real! Fuck! Rabble-B

Critter-pocalypse
So what's with all these mass animal die offs recently? Too much pollution? Poison? End of Days, turns out the Mayans were off by a year? Oh, it actually happens all the time, localized all over the world. These stories just usually fly (or spiral down into the ground) under the radar but for some reason the major news agencies picked up several of these events recently causing everyone to freak our unnecessarily, per usual. Maybe it's just been slow in the news people find entertaining but at least doomsdayers are happy. Whatever. Rabble-B
