Something to WOW At

My day just got better.

Just when you thought it was game over for you Super Nintendo games, this was born:

“Glasses” Hits the Internets

Last week it we were introduced to “Make Some Noise”.  This week, another single from the Beastie Boy’s forthcoming album, Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, has hit the information highway.  The new single, “Tadlock’s Glasses”, is so unlike “Make Some Noise”, but in an odd, distorted kind of way.  Click the link below to have a listen:
