Electric Six - Germans in Mexico

Electric Six - Dance Commander

LCD Soundsystem - Disco Infiltrator

Sunday morning, three (relatively) new albums (to me, as in "I've just got them" or "haven't yet listened to them, uh, much").

 

 

It's been a hard morning, and I am -- for the first time in months -- contemplating watching a Godard flick, namely: Tout va bien. And, like, this sounds even more pretentious than the norm, bursting with marxist dreg. Thing is, I like Yves Montand, and Jane Fonda was hot once, like really hot. I fondly remember that Poe adaptation her hubby made in the, uh, late 60s? Yeah, Vadim can't direct and his segment was by far the worst of the three, but Fonda, Fonda was gorgeous. (Sorta) Wish I had a copy.

The new Evanescence album.

 

I REGRET NOTHING.

My Dying Bride "The Sexuality of Bereavement"

Bathory  - One Rode To Asa Bay

Wintersun - Beyond The Dark Sun

Ensiferum - Warriors Quest

Tyr - Regin Smi

Mononoke-hime soundtrack.

 

I REGRET NOTHING EITHER!

On the new Evanescence; better than Fallen, but only slightly. If it didn't have Amy Lee singing, nobody would give them a second look.

 

EElS - Flyswatter

I heard it's pretty much emo-rock, just with female vocals and without screamo. Is that right?

Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should've Come Over

It doesn't sound like emo to me.

 

More like... utterly generic hard rock.

 

Neil Young - Let's Impeach The President

 

Good ol' Neil. As subtle as an elephant. An elephant laden with bricks. Screaming it's head off. Wrapped in crime scene tape. PINK crime scene tape.

Savath & Savalas -- A La Nit

Easy All Stars- Money

 

I always loved Dub Side of the Moon.

Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should've Come Over

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Yessssssss.

 

 

 

Bob Dylan - Just Like a Woman

Daft Punk - Harder faster stronger better.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Personally, I think Robot Rock is their best.

 

The Specials- Gangsters

 

Yeah, this is pretty much my desert-island album (don't you just hate such obvious, over-used, borderline barf-inducing cliches?). Mingus at Antibes comes close. Man, that was one my first Jazz albums -- perhaps the first, you know, the one, the mythical mumbo-jumbo one, the one you remember and reminisce about on lonely net-nerd forums at 5 AM, talking loud and proud 'bout them funny sounding words and phrases you've (barely) just thought of and (already) written in that (little) square-like space. That or this Miles Davis compilation whose name I've long forgotten... God Child?. I still own the tape, funny things tapes, CDs are funny in the same way, I guess, the-not-funny-at-all-unless-you're-up-at-5-AM-too-tired-to-wank-and-too-sane-to-sleep-way.

 

Yeah, in fact, I'ma gonna listen to it now, cause while I love Hip-Hop, 5 AM is way too late an hour, maybe some Bartok afterwards. Or The Stones or some other purebred Rock'n'Roll, yeah, something like that anyway, Leonard Cohen? Nah, I'd be too depressed, I'm already numb, I don't need that, uh, thinking, thinking, uh, The Twilight Singers make for good late night music, and they sure get loads of love 'round these parts. Then there's the single most perfect late-night rock song: Omerta. "I don't sleep 'cuz sleep iz the cousin of death -- 'Least that's what Nas say." Now, I for one, don't much care 'bout what "Nas say". But, then again, that's just me.

 

Edit: Holy Hell.
