It seems like the New York Times always bites off more than it can chew when it comes to reviewing bands with edgy names (see the article discussing Fucked Up’s live show back in November). So, it should come as no surprise that an article about Allentown, PA-based noise-makers Pissed Jeans comes off being pretty hilarious, considering they can’t even print the groups name in the article. The groups moniker is described as “a basic bladder-related humiliation, something that happens to the drunk or scared or infantile.” Oh, journalism!

Check it out and have a good chuckle right here.

Hot Damn! According to his website, our favorite comic Patton Oswalt will be hosting the Plug Awards, an annual indie rock award festival. The event will be taking place on March 6, 2008 at Terminal 5. You can currently vote for your favorites in indie, metal, punk, zines, webzines and a whole lot more at the Plug website. Nominees include Fucked Up, Baroness, Pissed Jeans, No Age, Gogol Bordello, Arcade Fire, High On Fire and Black Lips among others. We suggest you do a fill in for the Music Blog / Website category. (wink wink nudge nudge)

Enjoy some Patton.

As always Man Man put on an amazing show, but what’s Man Man show in NYC without the crazed fan Darren Mabee? Mabee was there in full force trying to take down the host of the show, comedian Jonah Ray and get him off the stage.

Earlier in the night the two sang a duet to the tune of “Hulkster in Heaven” by Hulk Hogan. Check the video out below. Check after the jump for more photos of Man Man and the always entertaining Pissed Jeans who opened the night.

Pissed Jeans’ lead singer Matt Korvette looks like a man who needs a lot of ice cream. Regular ol’ claims adjuster off stage, David Yow-inspired madman while on, yelping and flailing, with a possessed stare that would scare your grandmother. Check out the very “Black Hole Son” influenced “I’ve Still Got You (Ice Cream)” after the jump.
