Kids are crazy, and cute, but mostly crazy, so when you add a wired parent, a camera, YouTube and a crazy kid in one room, you get things like “Kittens inspired by kittens”, one of the oddest YouTube-kid videos I’ve seen in a long, long time. Cue all of the YouTube weirdos making their remixes and premixes and reactions and whatnot, but none will be as adorable as the original, seen below.

The bubble got a little more inflated today as the king of video sharing sites was scooped up by Google, the king of everything else, for $1.65 billion dollars in stock. Expect millions to be poured into video sharing sites for the next few months, maybe a year, then watch as one by one these sites begin to fall by the wayside. Mark Cuban is probably selling off all of his Google holdings right now and the blogosphere is about to explode. All of this excitement with our 300th posting here on Bunch of Nerds!

Starting out in Maine during the early 90s, Rex was a powerhouse trio of experimental post-rockers (featuring ex-Codeine member Doug Scharin, also of HiM fame), releasing several critically-acclaimed albums, followed by tours with bands such as June of ’44, The Sea and Cake, Sebadoh and many others. Rex unfortunately hasn’t produced anything lately, but rumours are often present about a reunion being possible, we can only sit back and hope.

I couldn’t write a more descriptive title if I tried. In the mid to late 1970s Hong Kong action movies were hitting their prime and nothing proves that more than the aptly titled, “Kung Fu versus Yoga”. Two fighters are battling over who will win the heart of a beautiful maiden when they have to take on a yoga-fighter extraordinaire whose ability to contort his body is at first very difficult for the traditional Kung Fu style to overcome. All of the requirements for 70′s low-brow martial arts cinema are present, from the highly-choreographed fighting to the lighthearted banter between enemies, I hope this is a film that every serious Hong Kong action fan has in their collection (both the original and the Dolemite collection re-release!).

Can were one of the most influential bands to come out of the late-60s / 70s “krautrock” scene, with their minimal arrangements emphasizing drums and bass, intertwined guitar solos and rambling, often incoherent vocals (sung in “the language of the cave-men”). Founded in Germany in 1968, the experimental rock band went through several singers and described themselves as an anarchist community, constructing their music mostly through improvisation and editing, with most early works being recorded at a castle which they rented outside of Cologne, Germany named Schloss Nörvenich.

Taking time off from closing development studios, (reportadly) bleeding talent from their various studios and throwing wild hipster parties in New York lofts, Rockstar Games have released the debut trailer for their upcoming school days meets GTA meets negative press magnet, Bully. The trailer plays more like an animated after-school special, but the quality of the voice acting and art are refreshing as always. Even though half the gaming world hasn’t seen a lick of gameplay from the title, the ‘normals’ are already all up in arms, naturally being lead by our lord and saviour Jack Thompson, with calls for banning the game from stores in order to keep kids from playing a game which is probably tamer than their everyday school lives to begin with (dear parents, most kids in school today are horrible people, go browse YouTube and MySpace for a little while for more information). So, uhmm, yeah whatever, when’s the next GTA coming out again?

The cast of the original Star Trek get mashed up to perform Monty Python’s “Knights of the Round Table” from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail in this somewhat well-done YouTube video mashup. I honestly don’t remember a few of the Star Trek scenes the creator used in this mashup, which not only means I’ll have to turn in not only my Star Trek fan club membership card, but also that I might be disqualified from writing for this site in the future :(

The Hindenburg disaster is one of the most well-known and well-documented air disasters on record, with live video and audio footage available from the very moment the disaster occurred in 1937. The Hindenburg was the pride of Pre-WWII Germany, and was one of the largest aircraft ever built (the length of 3 Boeing 747 end on end!). The true cause of the crash is not known to this day, with many theories present, from sabotage to lightening to static electricity causing the giant zeppelin to explode mysteriously while landing in New Jersey after one of the many trans-atlantic flights the Hindenburg performed.

Sonic Youth need no introduction, that much is true. The grandparents of indie-rock are (somehow) still going strong, recently releasing their 21st full-length album and touring heavily throughout the summer in support of it. The various members of the group are also working on book and solo releases as well as tending to their family life in New Jersey (having recently moved from NYC). Presented here are two wonderful videos from 1995′s brilliant album, “Washing Machine”, which is at the top of our favorite SY releases list.
