One: In which the Paper Thin Walls editorial staff records a Deerhoof song. The publicist responses are somewhat amazing.

Two: In which Spencer Ackerman discusses Rancid, and analyzes why bands don’t typically cover songs from their members’ previous bands. (I’d like to hold up Lucero as a counter-example of this, as I saw them do a couple of killer renditions of Red 40‘s “The Outsiders” at shows a few years ago.)

Three: In which Daphne Carr, recently returned stateside from Prague, argues against the Secretary of State’s comparison of Russia v. Georgia (2008) to the USSR v. Czechoslovakia (1968).
