Arrested Development Season Two DVDs Out October 11th; Win Copies From andPOP.com

Likely, this will be the first and last time I will be linking to the site andpop.com, but said site is giving away a bunch of copies of the second season Arrested Development DVDs, which is, as we all now, the best show on television right now.

MOMMY AND DADDY Video Posted

From the inbox:

MOMMY AND DADDY is the leading New York power couple. With sexy, hard-hitting drum machine beats, dirty, fuzzed-out bass lines and smoldering boy/girl vocals, Mommy and Daddy sounds like a tag team steel cage match between Le Tigre, Motorhead, B-52s and The Misfits. A video for the song “”Franconia Road”" has been posted here. The group’s disc Duel at Dawn was released on Tuesday on Kanine Records.
