Anticipation has a habit to set you up for disappointment...

I've been busy moving to a new apartment, which is why there have been no updates lately.  I apologize for this and will surely update more often now that I am somewhat settled in.

On another note, I'm excited to relay that The Cool Kids have a new album coming out July 12th entitled "When Fish Ride Bicycles."  Originally scheduled for release on December 29, 2009 (no typo there), it appears as though the dream will finally become the reality. 

One thing I really enjoy about The Cool Kids is that for a hip-hop band, they don't embody a lot of the things that turn people off to hip-hop music.  For example, their first album, "The Bake Sale", consists of them rapping about such things as going to the grocery store and buying milk, playing basketball, playing Sega Genesis, shoes, pagers, and bicycles.  Notice no mention of drugs, sex, cash, hoes, etc.?  That's why they're so great.  They can rap about the corniest of topics and still make it sound sweet as hell.

Here's a new track off the forthcoming album entitled "Bundle Up", as well as reminder of some of The Cool Kids' current gems to get you all as excited as I am for July 12th:

"One, Two"

"Mikey Rocks"

"88"

"A Little Bit Cooler"

"Gold and a Pager"

Listen to them all, or listen to just one, I don't care.  They're all good.  And the beats are dope.
