WZRDZ - The Sleeve Has Dropped!



Here at You Been Crushed we have a penchant for the mystical, the magical, the mythical. Did i mention mysterious? WZRDZ is all of the above and so much more.

Well, the moment we've been waiting for has arrived. The gnomes that work deep in the digital pipes of the internet have delivered the goods. The EP is called "In a Land of Peace and Magic," and to celebrate, WZRDZ have conjured another video for your pleasure, as well as a track to download:


If you like what you hear you can buy the release at any of these respectable retailers:

Nic Xedro - World Keeps Spinning


Nic Xedro is an artist.  He randomly sent me his Smells Like Teen Spirit cover and I went to his myspace, and I fell in love.  Since i know nothing about him i asked him to give me a little background:

"i'm from new york city and i love pop music, especially artists who come from outside of the center and are somehow able to come around through the backdoor and implode it. create a black hole. someone like MIA, Lil Wayne, or Gary Numan. I'm inspired by people I know, transvestites, drag queens, addicts, artists, mostly people who have that joy in life"
