Topps By BOAT

So another track from BOAT's Topps EP is floating around the internets.

Downloadable: "Topps" (box.net mp3)

Personally, I was never that into baseball cards. I just liked the dried out gum that came in the pack of cards. The gum is also available in the deluxe packaging for the Topps 7". Yum.

Rat Is Dead (Rage) By CSS

First, not a lolcat:

This cat lives at Webster Hall. His name is Coco. He was photographed by someone in CSS. I think... I mean it's from their website, so I think it's a good assumption, no?



And now "The Post":

Do you know these hands?



They belong to CSS. This image associated with their new song from their new album, Donkey (which comes out this summer).
