Wolves 114, Kings 113 (OT)




The Wolves nearly collapsed in the final minutes like the Kings did in game 2, but they managed to hang-on for a overtime win @ Arco Arena very early Tuesday morning. KG & company lead the best-of-seven series 2-1 heading into Wednesday's game 4, which will be another late nite affair. Damn you, TNT - let me go to bed!

MP3 The Exploding Hearts - "Sleeping Aides & Razorblades"
This is another one of my favorite tracks of 2003, from the outstanding Guitar Romantic (which I found through Pitchfork). Of course, what should have been a banner year for the Exploding Hearts became a horribly tragic one, when a car accident claimed the lives of three band members. I dedicated every mix I made during the back half of the year to those guys, and this track was on every one of them.

MP3 Oxford Collapse - "Totally Gay, Totally Fat"
Here's a dose of "dance-punk" from NYC trio Oxford Collapse. Their new album Some Wilderness came out last month, and it's pretty solid in my estimation (if you like this sort of thing). Drummer Dan Fetherston was a classmate of my in college, yet another NYU Film grad who has gone on to rock stardom. Am I in the wrong line of work?
