Keep on Rockin' in the Free World & Doot Doola Doot Doo...

Music's best interviewer since the late '80s, Canadian oddball Nardwuar "the Human Serviette" is also the frontman and keyboardist for long-running Vancouver punk band, The Evaporaters. On March 6th the band is set to release its sixth album, Busy Doing Nothing, a collection of covers and originals that features collaborations with the likes of Andrew W.K., The Cribs, Franz Ferdinand, Sage Francis and more. Spin has used to the occasion of the record's release to ask Nardwuar to select "his favorite encounters with music's biggest icons." To this end he has chosen seven interviews and they are all indeed essential viewing. I would suggest you drop your plans for the rest of the day and head over here to watch/listen to the clips. And when you are done with those, drop your plans for the rest of the week and head on over to Nardwuar's site for oodles more hilarious/cringe worthy/informative music interviews spanning the last three decades. Of the Spin highlights, an interview with a clearly "depleted" Kurt Cobain given just four months before his suicide; the veritable bro-boner that Pharrell pops for Nardwuar's impeccable research skills; and a "rock out with your cock out" moment with Snoog Dogg. I'd also recommend checking out the interviews with Josh Homme/QOSTA over at Nardwuar.com. Enoy! Doot Doot.
