Another week, another Mercury music section to read while you prepare for the Tupac biopic. They damn well better not skip over his time as a backup dancer for Digital Underground. Shock G has mouths to feed.

I went to Sasquatch and all I got was a mediocre Pavement reunion and this $9 can of PBR.
LISTEN:

Pavement - "In The Mouth A Desert" (Live)

If Woodist band Woods falls in the woods, or in Sellwood at The Woods, would anyone notice (how annoying this sentence is)? Generic names aside, Woods' At Echo Lake is one great record.
LISTEN:

Woods - "Blood Dries Darker"

We corner Nice Nice on the eve of yet another tour and make them discuss Extra Wow, signing to Warp Records, and their worst show of the year.
LISTEN:

Nice Nice - "See Waves"

End Hits: Actually, I'm sure Shock G's food situation is just fine. After rapping of the romantic nature of their bathrooms, Burger King should owe that man free food for life.
