for those of you who don’t know, StumbleUpon is a service that randomly “stumbles” you around the web to sites that it thinks would interest you based on the way that you vote on sites it shows you and what your interests are.
below are my favorite sites that i found using StumbleUpon this year in 2009, check em out!
Ourstage.com recently added modernsextrash to their playlist for a blog post entitled “The Next Electronic Prodigy.” By using the British act “The Prodigy” and the release of their new record “Invaders Must Die” (which also features Dave Grohl) as an example of just how powerful artists in the electronic niche can be, @ourstage has some great things to say about new artists finding success within their site. Ourstage more recently included us in yet another blog post entitled “Hey! You Got Electronica in my Rock Music!” modernsextrash is included in audio examples on their playlist.
Ourstage has been one of my favorite sites to reach new fans on. It takes the cake for one of the most interactive and personally rewarding promotional tools for any band looking to connect with lots and lots of artists or possible fans in the DIY realm.
As of november 29th, modernsextrash is the 8th most popular fan club in the experimental category. Check out the modernsextrash fan club to see Ourstage.com in action.
a good buddy of ours and member of Four Letter Lie, John Waltmann founded a clothing company called 2012 Threads centering around the lore and hysteria that the year 2012 is bringing to our culture.
when i first saw the clothing, i was INSTANTLY amazed and asked if i could help out in some way. John decided to appoint me to head up some of the business operations of 2012 Threads and plug him into the Panacea3 machine as well.
after a long battle with an overseas web design company and the help of Virtual Monk, we are finally launching the site. you may have noticed some photos of us sporting 2012 Threads and we hope to see you supporting this small company as well. just in time for all your holiday shopping i might add

I recently had the ability to rekindle my love for video game hacking. Being out of the loop for a good 4 to 5 years can feel like a chore of catch up given the next generation of systems that have come out since my last period of gaming indulgence.
The Final Fantasy series started for me in junior high with VII like most gamers my age. These games have continued to evolve with every release since and regardless of the different ideas within the battle system or even concept or atmosphere the games bring, I have always given them a shot. Being a big fan of VII I am pleased to see the new XIII looks to take the original turn based battle mode back possibly dropping the gambit system that established XII as one of the biggest hit or miss titles in the series. Plus the atmosphere of this soon to be released title has a similar feel to VII and VIII with the visuals and attitude.
Words really do not describe how epic this title looks to be. And thank you Square Enix for releasing this title after the hefty price tag on PS3 and XBOX dropped!!!! That is right my friends, you now have a choice as its the first game in the series to let go of exclusive rights to Sony.
ALSO!! There is a second title being released under the same XIII umbrella called VERSUS. Part of three Final Fantasy XIII games from Sqaure-Enix, Versus is the story of a young king sworn to defend the last crystal in the world from the “hectic order” outside of his kingdom. It’s a fight between ancient and modern techonology, and the struggle of one king to protect the old ways.
Release Day 3/9/2010
Well today is the big day… Will I join the masses complaining that the game is too linear? Or will I not give a shit and enjoy the fact that like all titles that are currently evolving to a new platform, Final Fantasy XIII is going to be the most cinematic experience yet?
What are your thoughts before and after experiencing this exciting release?

below is what has kept us so busy; photoshoots, internets, recording, video shoots….. the newest irl shows it all:
I was just featured in Minnesota Business magazine for our neo-label, Panacea3. As everyone races furiously to understand social media and the new uses for the internet, it’s reassuring to get something published to remind people that we have been preaching and practicing all these tactics and more for over a year now. modernsextrash is truly associated with “the first neo-label.”
For the month of April you can also find us directly on their homepage here: minnesotabusiness.com
