Still waiting for the new Frontalot track? Well, keep waiting! Various complications have ensured that it won’t be out for a couple more weeks.
In the meantime, you may do either of two things:
1. Contemplate the fact that rap-famished geeks routinely leech this site past its 10GB monthly bandwidth limit, forcing us to offsite the mp3 collection. You’re welcome to pitch in.
2. Play this exciting text adventure game where the goal is to not sniff glue.
Front and companion could be glimpsed near the back of the Fillmore last night, waving a fey wrist gently airward at requisite moments. The show was Busta Rhymes and let’s just take a second here to say that the things he does with his mouth are inhuman, are feats more readily identified with titans, sea monsters, and robots who travel through time. If MC Frontalot could emit even a feeble imitation of Busta’s limitless mic technique, he would have a career instead of a web site. Three cheers!
News flash: Kid Whatever has delivered his remix of Speed Queen. It’s over here.
Some dude named Gabe (I think he draws a web comic) has used his psychic powers (not his eyeballs) to drawthis incredibly accurate portrait of MC Frontalot. There is also a picture of what Front got for his birthday from his friends in the criminal sector. That’s the last square in the gallery.
A new song is almost recorded! It will be called “Which MC Is That?”
The answer is not MC Potbelly. Yet if you follow his complicated music-hearing directions, you will be oddly rewarded.
Frontalot and cohorts were in evidence last night at The Makeout Room for the SF premiere of samba tributariesSmokey & Miho. Sitting in was Ralph Carney (sax on most of your favorite Tom Waits records), who said he’d come by Frontalot HQ for liquor afterwards, but didn’t.
Which is too bad, as he would have received (alongside his liquor) a special copy of Good Old Clyde, the Front tune that happens to have Ralph’s horn sampled throughout.
Miho, who is not sampled, would have received a copy of the home game.
Extra! Extra! Read all about it: despite relative wackness, Floating Bridge song triumphs in Song Fightcompetition! Suspicious sources report that Front’s fierce and tiny cadre of internet fans have tipped the voting, citing as evidence the fact that competing songfighters inspire little admiration outside of their immediate families.
Please rectify this tragedy by turning into rabid fans of battle-scarred computer nerds/songmakers: 1 2 3 4 5.
It is now possible to discuss various topics in the frontalot.com forum. But only if you have proven yourself to be asucker.
You are compelled — inexplicably — to find out all you can about scare goats. I learned that testicles should be two, of equal size.
It is now possible to play a video game as MC Frontalot! He has become an honorary Spacer, courtesy of add.
Front & posse were seen last night at the Great American Music Hall! In the audience at the Eels concert. We found it rocking and then some. What, a night of hip-hop neglect? No. Warm-up act and soon-to-be darling of nerds everywhere Ben Kweller opened with “Ice Ice Baby” and Eels started their set with “Get Ur Freak On.” Which we did.
The loverly Kompressor/Frontalot duet “Rappers We Crush” is in the music section.
MC Frontalot is featured on the new KOMPRESSOR song, called Rappers We Crush. It will be posted in the music section soon, but for now you will have to get it from the big K’s ampcast page or from the frontalot.com Valued Suckers secret page. What do you mean you’re not a Valued Sucker? Lyrics are here.
Front is playing or has played a show in Evansburgh, according to this panel in the charming Diesel Sweetiesspinoff Indie Rock Bottom. You’ll have to look close.
