Apathy Remixes
Alright, so normally this would take the form of an artist profile, but to be honest, I really know nothing about Apathy and don’t have the time to investigate further, as my History of Photography final paper (25% of my final grade, fuck) is breathing down my neck. And yes, hip hop is normally Everett’s thing, but I’m making an exception here. Earlier tonight Ben (from Videoteque and Work For It) brightened my relatively-bleak night by hooking me up with Apathy’s “It Takes A Seven Nation Army To Hold Us Back”, which just defines hotness, and I still haven’t gotten over Apathy’s “Banquet” remix, which I posted a little over a month ago with my Bloc Party Always New Depths rarities compilation. While the various rappers’ featured on these two tracks’ (one of which is Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park) lyrics are juvenile at best, the beats on these songs are just awesome, as their sampled from two of my favorite songs of the last few years.
Also, the “Banquet” remix, aside from being ridiculously hot, is worth listening to just so you can hear Mike Shinoda’s “I’m fuckin’ awesome when I’m rockin’ the booth” line, as it never ceases to bring a smile to my face. WARNING: Fiery hotness below.
