We've already seen how hilarious things can get when you mix Kanye West's tweets with New Yorker cartoons. But what happens when you mix quotes from the cast of MTV's The Jersey Shore with Family Circus cartoons? The results are offensive and brilliant!
The new video for Wavves "Post Acid" features none other than the beautiful sights of California, some rad skateboarding, and the boys vibing out with an alien. Awesome.

One of my favorite bands of the past year has to be Surfer Blood. Their chilled out guitar riffs and the calm yet energetic voice of John Chattman put Astro Coast at the top of my list for recommendations to friends.
