Now all they need is a kid who can play air bass and a kid who can shoot air heroin and they can start a Nirvana air tribute band.

Don't worry, guys. It's already been taken care of.

From Indiecred:

Album Tacos is a Tumblr site that takes iconic album covers and adds tacos. Why? Because some people have a lot of free time. And those people like tacos.

Don't ask questions. Just enjoy.

The Olympics might be over, but it's never too late to kick ass, and that's just what American figure skater Scott Williams does in this video.

Luckily, the video wasn't released to the web until after the Olympics were over, otherwise people might have clamored to cancel that whole lame-ass event and replace it with serious business!!

Some people might say that Kurt Cobain is probably rolling over in his grave …but how could he after Scott Williams totally nailed that triple lutz!!

This is about as bad ass as a dude spinning around on ice with a sleeveless T-shirt and white jeans can be.  Respect.

The music side of the blogosphere is abuzz over the official announcement of  new supergroup, Them Crooked Vultures, consisting of Nirvana drummer/Foo Fighters mastermind Dave Grohl, Led Zeppelin awesome bassist/cheesy arranger John Paul Jones, and Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme.

They'll be playing their first ever show on Sunday at the Metro in Chicago.

Homme suggested they promote the show via Twitter.  Grohl believed it was worth their time to create a Myspace page.  Jones suggested heavy flyering, getting their 45 in local jukeboxes and setting up an interview with Creem magazine.

Here's a fun new mashup video: The music from Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" with the vocals from Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up."  Now you can mosh your way back from a RickRoll.

Though I think a more inspired Nirvana tune to combine with Rick Astley vocals would be "I Hate Myself and Want to Die."
