A Recomendation

If you like dark music or electronic music, I highly recommend the new Burial album - Untrue. It is an incredibly dark album. The whole album sounds like a dark foggy alley. Lots of reverb and deep bass. Distorted vocals and unconventional beats. I have not decided if it is a top ten album yet, but it wouldn't surprise me. It is a labyrinth of an album twisting and turning going from light and beautiful to dark and cold in the course of ten seconds. Truly something that has to be experienced.

Another album that I reviewed this was Sigur Ros latest album Hvarf - Heim. It is a solid album. Show casing the light and beauty that Sigur Ros is capable of. The first half of the album is all new material, the second half is live versions of tracks. They are all solid and continue to inspire and perpetuate belief in humanity and good. The songs sound like sunrise on a glacier or at least what I hope it sounds like since I have never experienced that.

Anyway those are two albums that are recently released and I recommend. They serve as a point and counter point to each other. The dark and the light.

I'm Not Blue Grass

Ok I decided to do a Non-(feel my heat) post. This about the records I want because I have heard good things. I want the new Bruce. I do not need to explain this. I want the new Robert Plant/Allison Krauss disc. I like both artists and I think it would be interesting to hear. Blue grass meets zep, now there is a mash up. Forget about Sri Lanken rappers, I want to hear Whole Lotta Love with an extended fiddle jam.

The best record I have received from WMSR is by far I'm Not There the soundtrack to the new Bob Dylan movie. I kid you not when I say, throw it on random and it will be nothing but good songs. If the movie is as good as this disc then it should sweep the Oscars. More importantly it is form a wide range of artists, all doing their best Bob Dylan impersonations and tunes.

Ok thats enough for now.

Random Notes

So I once again I have A) Stopped Blogging B) Kinda Fucked Up C) Starting to do well in classes. I probably won't get straight A's this semester, but I am moving toward that direction hopefully. Its not so much I stopped blogging but rather I forget about it or don't have much to say. You don't really need to know how I fucked up, I did and I am trying to fix it and make it better. And doing well is just motivation maybe.

The fires in California are crazy. I guess that is what happens when there is drought and people living in areas they probably should not. Anyways I hope that no one is loosing their home and that everyone is safe.

Signs of the Apocalypse

Signs of the apocalypse:
  • I did not hate the new Kid Rock Album
  • The Bon Jovi song I heard on SNL was pretty good
  • Did not love the Band of Horses
  • Bush is still in office
  • The Democrats are still not keeping up with the liberal base
  • Rudy Gulliani
I ran out of this sorry.

But seriously as much as I wanted to hate Kid Rock he did a surprisingly good job. I would never buy it but since I got it for free, it was ok. Anyway I don't recommend it unless you can get it for free.

The Bon Jovi song was sounded a lot like modern Springsteen and Petty. I am looking forward to come home so I can hear the new Springsteen. I have heard good things about the album, sorta a pop-y sound much like the River. The Bon Jovi song is worth a listen, but if it sucks don't blame me.

This is a solid follow up to Everything All the Time. However it lacks the anthems that made Everything spectacular. Cease to Begin is by no means a bad album, in fact it probably comes in third for sophomore albums this year behind LCD Soundsystem and The Arcade Fire not bad company to be in. In fact this album is infinitely better than Bloc Parties Weekend in the City in my opinion. However the album lacks a song as strong as Funeral. Is there a Ghost? is a great song, but the album never again quite matches the greatness of that song. There are several good songs on here and all of the songs are in the solid to good range and no bad songs to speak of. However it lacks the anthems that made Everything all the time so appealing.

The other ones I don't really need to explain.

Ennui/Melencholia with For FAP/BP

A long relationship has just ended. If it ended like most relationships do it was not because you caught the other cheating. It ended because the two of you were changing. Because the spark that was once there does not seem to be there. Because one person is becoming colder and more distant while the other is still head over heals for the other. And while being broken up with sucks, breaking up with someone hurts as well. If you have been in a longer term relationship then clearly you care about that person. And you are the one who has to tell them that things have changed. That while you care for them you don't want them romantically any more. And you hold out hope that they will return to that special place in your heart, you are still worried that it might not. And while you may not vomit and cry in the same violent manner, you do cry and vomit and try anything to let yourself forget for a moment about how much it hurts. And the only position that feels good is the fetal position. And your friends don't understand why you are blue because they claim you are free. All you are really free from is the person that you care about and would have given the world for. Because while you are no longer in a romantic relationship you still care about them more than yourself.



In honor of all the playlists I have received from my dad here are my ten saddest songs:

Elliott Smith - Rose Parade
Trying to pick the saddest Elliott Smith song is like choosing your favorite child. You can do it but man is that an evil process. This is just the Smith song that I have been listening to the most lately.

Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat
When you want a laugh you go to Cohen. This is a pretty morose song. About the one that got away or you let get away. A love letter to her.

Elvis Costello - Almost Blue
Elvis works for both break up playlist and broken up playist. This is the the broken up. I knew he was angry I did not know he could go sad, at least not quite like this.

Tom Waits - Time
"And its time/And its time/And its time, time, time that you loved me/And its time/time/time" If there has been a sadder lyric I haven't heard it. Description of the morose night owls.

Nick Drake - Time of No Reply
A hall of famer for the mopey sad guys. I could explain why the song is on here but why bother?

Chet Baker - My Funny Valentine
I haven't decided if that is actually one of the saddest songs or not but it is in heavy rotation right now. It sounds sad to me but it might just be my brain connecting the dots.

Pearl Jam - Black
Its a hit. You have heard it. You may have even cried to it. Certainly helped bring down your day.

Jackson Browne - Fountain of Sorrow
I grew up on Jackson Browne therefore I do not nessicarly associate him with sadness. then I listened to the lyrics. I thought about jumping out my window and then I remembered it was a second story. So instead I just lay in bed.

The Mountain Goats - Get Lonely
This is sad. This is so sad that it only makes sense after the relationship has just ended.

Band of Horses - Is There A Ghost
Not that sad compared to the others. In fact I think there is hope in the song which makes it a good end note but its still not happy. As I lay here I see a possible speck of light with this song.

And I know what you are thinking right now, "What about Bright Eyes?" Well, they just don't really do it for me right now. They are angst-y and I like them but they are not blue.

thoughts

There are somethings you can only listen to on your headphones, ...and you will know us by the trail of dead is one of those bands. Nothing else to say about it.

I am thinking of putting all my one acts together as one monsterous play/movie/idea they all sorta fit together

I really should drop geo but why bother? Not hard just boring

Shows, no Class

College sorta sucks. Its hard to say deffinitively that is totally does or totally doesn't. I have fun on the weekends when I am with my friends but when I am stuck in my room I want to transfer. I can't stand my roommate or the people I live next too. So maybe if I just transfer rooms I will be happier.

Class aren't great but that is simply because I am in gigantic classes.

I went to Against Me! Last night and had a lot of fun. Its always good to go to shows just to do something and meet new people. Something I will say in for the punk community it is pretty welcoming. I guess you can't be the community of outsiders and then shun people. I am pretty sure I am going to make my buddy go to Bad Religion and go to Social Distortion over thanksgiving.

There are not enough random comics in the world. Scratch that there are plenty but I don't have enough.

A wish list for any reading who want to send something to me: Flannel Shirts, Size 12 Chuck Taylors, 40 of Malt Liquor, Skateboard, Black Sweatshirt, Random Stuff

Punk Rock Love...A Favorite

Punk rock love is fucking behind the dumpster down the street from the show. Fucking in the shower at the Hotel Carlton. Making out in the recycle bin. Looking at her tattoos while she's asleep. Taking showers together. Playing checkers with cigarette butts. Watching her band play. Dumpstering veggies together and then going back to her place and cooking up a feast. Knowing the same parts of the same songs. Both of you having the same ex-girlfriend. Punk rock love is having to tie her shoes for her cuz she's too drunk. Kissing under the overpass. Her sending you her whole diary to read. Her giving you ten rolls of duct tape for your birthday. Her beating up skinheads. Going to the prom on her motorcycle and checking in the helmets at the coatcheck. Getting astonished stares from all the jocks who thought you were gay, now they feel dumb cuz you're with an older punk rock bombshell and they're with their friend's little sister. Punk rock love is meeting her outside the club and her saying come home with me or I'm gonna kick your fuckin ass. Going home with her and she almost kicks your ass anyway. Sharing hairdye. Riding double on a bike. Being loud and not caring. Sneaky eyes and sleeveless t-shirts. The sun coming up and you realizing that there's other people on the beach. A good sleazy one week stand. Still being friends afterwards, most of the time. Punk rock love is her sneaking out in the middle of the night to meet you in the park. Running your fingers over her spikey hair. Her chewing on a flower and you having to call poison control when her tongue swells up. Bringing her to the laundromat for a date. Sharing a sleeping bag and waking up freezing in the middle of the night and her, bleary eyed, trying to heat it up with a blowdrier. Social Unrest playing "Ever Fallen in Love?" at the gig you're both at the night after she dumps you hard. Starting smoking again after that night. Punk rock love is her drawing on you. Her sleeping on your back. Her being mad at you for being such a jerk. Her thinking it's cool that you stink and your hair stands up by itself. Her having weird roommates who worship eggs. You waiting in the doorway for hours hoping she might pass by. Even in the snow. Her singing along with Descendents records over the air on her late night radio show. Her picture on the front page of the morning paper, getting arrested. Her borrowing your favorite black hat and never giving it back. Punk rock love is finding a girl who drinks as much coffee as you do. Going into the cafe where she works and she looks up and smiles and doesn't notice as she trips over a pile of 50 dishes. They hit the floor one by one and when it's all done everyone in the cafe applauds and you both turn beet red. Punk rock love is both of you doing fanzines. Years later her teaching English to college freshmen, you still doing fanzines. Her wearing glasses through her eyes are fine, using crutches though her legs are fine, and talking with a fake speech impediment. You just thinking it's rad girl style, until later when someone brings up the concept of self-imposed handicaps. Punk rock love is getting your first kiss and almost losing your virginity at the same time, meanwhile you're trying not to wake up the other person sleeping in the same bed. Groping in the bushes by the freeway and later you realize that all the passing cars could see you. Exploring the wasteland together. holding hands out on the fire escape. Lying in the grass in her backyard. Lying on the astroturf in her bedroom. Drinking tequila on her porch, on your birthday. Riding on her motorcylce early in the cold morning and you're holding on tight and steam is rising off of the river and you're thinking how she is maybe even better than the Ramones. Punk rock love is both being broke. Love letters. Finding out she sang "Stay Free" at her high school talent show. Finding out she's a little crazier than you thought when you finally get her in bed. Her boyfriend getting mad. Walking around with her and her nephew and everyone giving you dirty looks cuz they think he's your kid. Walking around with her and being happy and proud. Being sad together. Being sad by yourself. Missing her.'

Fashion

Can some explain fashion to me? I thought I had a gripe on it and then people do things I don't get. Like I understand that what is worn on the runway will not be worn on the street. I also understand that some people have bad or unique fashion. But what the fuck is with all these guys trying to look like Dads? Tucked in dress shirts, cargo shorts, baseball hats trying to covert the bald spot and 5 o'clock shadows. I am not sure if they are students or parents coming to get their kids.

Also what the fuck is with polo shirt dresses. I see girls wearing them everywhere. I looks like they stole an incredibly fat, incredibly tall guys shirt and decided it would work as a dress. It doesn't. It basically makes you look fat/poorly formed. And stop poping your damn coalar.

Who knows maybe I just don't know how to dress.

Return

After a year of not blogging I have returned. I decided to start up again after blogs like One D at a Time and Sex, Drugs, and Narcissism. I wish my blog would be as good as theres but thats probably not going to happen. I just hope I will get more than two people to look at it.

Feel My Heat

That's right continuing the long trend of me being a rock nerd I have my own college radio station. The name of the show is Feel My Heat, and I will be playing all sorts of stuff. Not suprising if you have seen my ipod. But you can count on hearing a fair amount of Tom Waits, Elvis Costllo, Bowie, and Johnny Thunders. Along with my favorite new artists.

Oh and if you are interested Butch Walker should be famous. His new album The Rise and Fall of Butch Walker and the lets go out tonites is great. It 70's British glam with a modern La feel.

Butch Walker - Hot Girls in Good Moods
Head Automatica - New York is Burning
Dirty Pretty Things - Gin and Milk
Tom Waits - Way down in the Hole
Elvis Costello - (I don't want to go to) Chelsea
