A Hard Fought Victory Over Vowels. Congrats MSTRKRFT.

OK kids, we have a winner.

After an extra day of voting and much animated discussion, MSTRKRFT takes the the title, winning 5 - 3.

I have to say, I was pretty impressed with everybody's comments on this one. It's nice to see that smut with little redeeming social value can provoke thoughtful conversation.

MSTRKRFT's victory video is "Street Justice." I really like this video for a number of reasons. One, it has a guest appearance by the Trackdirtyaz, who I like a lot. Two, it's modeled after dance party TV shows. I love dance party TV shows. Electric Circus may still be one of my favourite shows of all time, with Soul Train on WGN a close second. Three, one of the girls in this video looks a little like Jennifer Beals in Flashdance. I love Flashdance.

Argh... I thought I voted for this one already but apparently not. I would have voted for MSTRKRFT merely because I miss DFA. Both were worthy competitors. Maybe a DFA vs. At The Drive In in a battle of the supernova hype bands is a possibility for a later date.

In other news, I want to steal the concept for this blog and make it about dancehall artists. It would be very similar in design but would inspire the viewer to commit 400% more hate crimes.

In other other news, I need to stop listening to Vybz Kartel.
