Other people have music! I knew this was possible.<\/p>\n

  1. Leannan Sidhe have added an incentive<\/a> – whoever gets them to four digits on their recording Kickstarter<\/a> gets album art design sketch prints.\n

    Cool stuff nobody else gets is awesome, and it’s just whoever gets them to $1000, no specific amount required. As I’m writing this, they aren’t far off from that level, so check it – it might still be available!<\/p>\n

  2. I kind of skipped DEVO’s comeback Something for Everybody<\/i> album when it came out in 2010, thinking they’d been done for a long time, and not caring for nostalgia acts. But having finally bought it – wow, was I wrong. They had unfinished business to do<\/em>. SoE is New Traditionalists<\/i>-level work, without retreading; good parts and a sum which is greater.\n

    Standouts: Fresh, What We Do, Mind Games, Later is Now. Only one real misstep (Cameo). Of particular note: No Place Like Home, possibly the least-DEVO-like Devo song they ever recorded, and a vector showing where they might’ve gone in better hands. But listen to the album as a unit.<\/p>\n

  3. This isn’t music, but Anna’s fantasy novel kickstarter for Faerie Blood<\/i> and Bone Walker<\/i><\/a> has also added an incentive: whoever gets her to $3000 gets to name a character after themselves and have that character killed off<\/em>. It’ll be either in the third<\/em> Kendis Thompson book, or a future Warder universe story.\n

    I suspect you can also name the character someone else. I hope you can, anyway. XD<\/ol>\n

    It’s a hard time to be in the creative classes, particularly in the States, where support for non-commodifyable culture has been on the rocks for years. This article is both relevant and interesting on that point<\/a>. So go help make up for that kind of crap, and launch some art!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
