Vinyl LP pressing. 2017 release. Who are these Sloppy Heads? Your Sloppy Heads are notable because they are being the only band ever from Brooklyn! They are Bill the Drummer (AKA V. Stiles) and Ariella Stok (AKA Starmaiden) and Jimmy Jumpjump (AKA Frow #1). The instruments in the Sloppy Heads are singing, guitar, bass, the organ, the drums, and the noise, and they are all done by everybody. They have their own instruments, and are writers of songs together. And for this album they are also having of the recording and guitaristry of James McNew (aka J. McNew) of Yo La Tengo and Dump. They are giving birth to this band in 2009. Why is there no Sloppy Heads album before? Your Sloppy Heads stay very under the ground! Before, they are making of a seven-inch EP and cassette tapes and CD-Rs and also been on compilation by Brah Records that is benefitting Japanese earthquake victims name of Koozies, Woodies And Beers, and compilation recording for magazine of Yeti. Tell me about this Useless Smile then. Album was made almost all in band's first Headsquarters, next to Shea Stadium. Music place not baseball place. Shea Stadium is still there and also the men who smoke hookah across the street, but that Headsquarters is not. Except for the song that was made in Ocropolis, which is now hole. But also other sounds are from other places. These are songs that are written accidentally and some for purposes excepting two songs, which were also written somehow by other people but Vlada does not know how. What is Sloppy Heads music like? It is filled with sounds that are loud and quiet and written and made up right now. Sometimes they are to be very rocking! Other times they are not to be rocking at all! It makes Vlada feel like she has sunshine and sometimes feels sad. Other times is giving a feeling of swirling in many-colored flotation like hippie movie about the hair.

Now what I was looking for
Format: Paperback
I was looking more for advice on getting from a major with no clear career applications(ie. not doctor, lawyer or teacher) to a career that I would be able to live with and perhaps enjoy. This guide helps you more if you have a pretty clear idea what you want to do and are ready to make a full time job of finding your career, especially if you are not willing to settle for "paying the bills" or "get out of the parents' house". For those of you lucky enough to have not picked a major yet, just remember that picking a major needs to corrolate to getting a job, not just "learning stuff". For everyone else, if you have a dream, seems like this book will help you get there. If you don't yet have a dream, I would strongly suggest tackling that area first. This book mainly just suggests getting a career profile(which is more of other people telling you what you should do, instead of you finding out what you want to do). There's a lot of really helpful and very current information in here. You have to be ready to jump on it though.

Outstanding! An absolute must for college students
Format: Paperback
I picked this book up hoping it would prepare me for the job market, which I was already pretty confident about. It was incredibly eye opening, and enlightened me about dozens of things I was overlooking--like using Facebook as my "professional friend" and getting a linkedin account. It was a little stressful seeing how much I could do, but I've been working through the tips one at a time and its really built momentum in my professional brand even as an undergraduate. Now, I have something to do to build my career everyday.

Made Me Examine My Own Hidden Prisons -- Powerful and Empowering
Format: Hardcover
I was fortunate to read Shaka's book early, and it stands as one of the most profound self-help books I've ever encountered. The experience reminded me of reading MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING -- that rare combination of beautiful, raw writing paired with hard-earned wisdom born from lived experience.
What sets HOW TO BE FREE apart are the "Digging Deeper" sections at the end of each chapter, which offer straightforward, specific guidance for breaking free from the hidden prisons that keep us from reaching our potential. These aren't vague platitudes; they're practical tools you can actually use.
While my privileged upbringing couldn't be more different from the experiences Shaka writes about, I quickly discovered that the hidden prisons he explores -- grief, anger, struggles with forgiveness and vulnerability, etc -- are universal. They affect all of us, regardless of our background or circumstances. As someone who loves introspection, I found myself genuinely engaged in examining my own hidden prisons and what holds me back. The book doesn't just tell you about these barriers -- it makes you want to dig into your own.
What his journey gave me wasn't just insight, but confidence. If he could find his version of freedom from solitary confinement, then I have no excuse not to pursue mine.
The writing itself is incredible -- authentic, compelling, and beautifully crafted. I'd read anything Shaka wrote. This book doesn't just teach you about freedom; it shows you the path to find your own.

Feeling Stuck in Self-Doubt or Fear? This Book Unlocks the Hidden Prisons Holding You Back!
Format: Hardcover
That’s exactly where I was—stuck in what Shaka calls “Hidden Prisons.” Reading How to Be Free felt like someone handed me the key I didn’t know I already had. This isn’t just another “self-help” book filled with fluffy affirmations. Shaka earned his wisdom the hard way—19 years behind bars, 7 of them in solitary confinement. And yet, out of that darkness, he forged a blueprint for freedom that applies to EVERYONE: CEOs, parents, students, athletes… anyone who’s tired of being stuck.
What I loved most? The book doesn’t just inspire—it gives you tools you can actually use. Daily practices like journaling, mindfulness, and meditation aren’t presented as clichés but as lifelines. I tried just one of the exercises and immediately noticed a shift in my mindset.
🔥 My biggest takeaways:
Your setbacks can fuel your greatest comebacks.
Vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s power.
Protecting your peace is just as important as chasing success.
True freedom starts in the mind, long before circumstances change.
If you’ve ever battled shame, anger, or the feeling that life is slipping through your fingers—this book is the wake-up call you need. By the time you finish How to Be Free, you won’t just believe change is possible—you’ll have a clear path to living it.
