The Ethical Scumbag: BMA rocks with the tried, true, and new
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/bma-rocks-with-tried-true-and-new.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. BMA rocks with the tried, true, and new. Matthew J. Lee/Globe Staff. Electronic Artist award winners Freezepop were icy cool and dance-friendly in their synth-pop dance party, with Liz Enthusiasm as the lead singer. A handful of awards seemed a foregone conclusion - Dropkick Murphys’ reeling in both Artist and Live Artist of the Year showed the inherent conflict in a show like this - you want to include the newer talent, but you need a few bigger names for the draw. Fellow Rock Artis...

The Ethical Scumbag: Tiki's Next Wave
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/tikis-next-wave.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. F Martin Ramin for The Wall Street Journal, Styling by Anne Cardenas. Tiki Drinks, from left: Lunch Cart, Fog Cutter, A Day at the Races. Over the past few years, the craft cocktail world has reimmersed itself in the retro delights of the Tiki bar, bringing respect back to drinks that had been maligned as tacky. It's a broad genre, but as a general rule, they give off a summery vibe with flavored syrups, fruit juices and, of course, rum. Lots and lots of rum. Increasingly, modern bar...

The Ethical Scumbag: Digitalism dance to the harmony of song
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/digitalism-dance-to-harmony-of-song.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. Digitalism dance to the harmony of song. That little number is not an aberration of this summer's widely diverse, one-stop-genre-shopping record, I Love You, Dude. Kitsune Music), which also lays down screaming club bangers like "Reeperbahn," atmospheric Air-like daydreams like "Just Gazin'," the glitchy, chopped up beats of "Antibiotics," and the pulsing house throw-downs of "Blitz," alongside the straight-up guitar-focused dance rock of "Circles" and "Forrest Gump.".

The Ethical Scumbag: Tavern in the Square: A spot where everything is just the same
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/tavern-in-square-spot-where-everything.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. Tavern in the Square: A spot where everything is just the same. Finding a good or a bad bar is simple. Trying to pinpoint something in between is surprisingly difficult. Since most of us have become so accustomed to accepting boring and milquetoast as standard, it throws off the grading curve. What is a mediocre bar, you might ask? No palate goes unfulfilled. And there’s always entertainment galore; walls covered in televisions, trivia nights, karaoke, and anything else the...It̵...

The Ethical Scumbag: Future classics
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/future-classics.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. Over the past decade, we've seen the term "renaissance" used a lot to describe what's happening in the cocktail world: a return to old-school ways of thinking about how we're drinking, and a fonder appreciation for classic cocktails. But let's stop looking to the past for a moment. What about the future? What contemporary cocktails will actually become tomorrow's classics? I mean, let's say I make a cool new drink called the Luke O'Neil," he continues, proposing what is, incidentally...

The Ethical Scumbag: October 2011
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 17, 2011. Dueling Bartenders: The Manliest Sweet Drink. Its the weekend, which means were back at the bar with AskMens resident bartenders, Josh and Luke. Theyre both skilled at their trade, but between them runs the age-old schism of bartending: Should you drink. The original version or a recent innovation? We wont pick sides, but its worth doing lots of experimenting to figure out whos right. . Luke, the traditionalist: The old-school Sidecar. While the Sidecar is a cocktail. James Bla...

The Ethical Scumbag: Noel Gallagher takes center stage
http://theethicalscumbag.blogspot.com/2012/05/noel-gallagher-takes-center-stag.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. Noel Gallagher takes center stage. Oasis fans have long wondered what the Manchester band's records would have sounded like without Liam Gallagher in the mix, and the 'Sis's recent breakup has answered all that. Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. It wasn't something that I wanted to do. I don't want a solo career, I'd much rather be in a band. Unfortunately, the band I was in, I can't be in that band anymore. It was just fucked up.". It's hard to imagine someone of Gallagher's succe...
