New releases
Colourmusic
This week’s new releases include two very different offerings of local interest.
In music, excellent Oklahoma-based alt-pop band Colourmusic, which was founded at my alma mater, Oklahoma State University, releases today its full-length debut album, the elaborately titled “f, monday, orange, february, venus, lunatic, 1 or 13.”
On the other end of the spectrum, actor, conservative activist and fist of steel Chuck Norris, who was born in Ryan, Oklahoma, releases his new book “Black Belt Patriotism: How to Reawaken America.”

It is a posthumous release from Mitch Hedberg, who died in 2005. Here’s the Amazon.com product description:
“Recorded two months prior to his death, this album contains nearly forty minutes of previously unreleased stand-up material. It pulses with Mitch’s inimitable wit and spirit, it’s a document of a comedy master, and it’s a treat for all those who were afraid they’d never get to hear another great Hedberg joke.”
-BAM
Umm…I was under the impression that Mitch Hedberg was dead. Was I wrong or is this a posthumous release?
On an unrelated note, I’d just like to say that Chuck Norris is following the William Shatner school of embracing your campiness until you actually come out the other side cool again.
