3. flathead- the fratellis

8 notes does not make a scale...

uh chinese democracy is really supposed to come out next week. im not even that excited im not crazy about guns n roses but im just happy that its actually happening... i have 799 unlistened podcasts on my itunes (all free indie)... i love ted leo... i desperately want to see vampire weekend in the city next month... i developed a theory... WHAT?
my theory is that the beatles are the best band in the world because they are half dead and still fucking worshipped and that they are so good that you could not possibly go a day in the life (hehe) without hearing the word "beatles"/hearing one of their songs/seeing someone wearing a beatles tshirt. good theory yeah.
...stephen malkmus has some serious band hopping issues as does chris cornell and dave grohl but im not complaining... theres a million ways to be cruel... i looked up record players today... my dad apparently likes the new pink song... ?... im not getting to a playlist today am i...

you have to hear this band...

i need to say something that is really bothering me. i was one of the good people who bought the actual new coldplay album like the hard copy and not the download. its good for the most part btw. and i kind of love the song Lost! but i found that itunes was selling an acoustic version called Lost? so i triple checked my album and its not on there. so i had to buy it from itunes. itunes you suck.
and now i shall blog about indie. i came across a band called the pigeon detectives when i was in scotland a few years ago. they british. and they have 2 albums now. i got the new one when i was there again this summer but it was kind of disappointing. i hate when that happens like a bands first album is really good then the second one sucks. heres a mini playlist of my favorites...
1. im always right
2. i found out
3. take her back
4. im not sorry
5. this is an emergency
***dont bother with itunes for these they dont have them. see they do suck***

nirvana's cover of bowie's the man who sold the world- as you can tell this is my favorite song of all time. and...
cat power's cover of the stone's satisfaction- fucking incredible.
best soundtrack of my generation- juno. it has belle and sebastian and sonic youth. enough said.
best collaboration of my generation that was not really my generation- bowie and queen's under pressure- so good.
best rap song of my generation- run dmc's its tricky- quite catchy even for a white girl like me.
best instrumental track of my generation- TIE between...
the hiveseses the hives are the law, you are crime- its funkay. and...
