wee blanket now owns the beatles catalog. oh.
ok lots to say... michael jackson is dead, you knew that. personally i havent suffered an ounce of sadness. he belonged in jail and im not a fan of his music. pop bores me. in more important news i have a new favorite song of the moment. its called ancestors by throw me the statue. jesus its good. in other really good news ive been getting lots of free (legal) music lately from amazon.com. btw im really against the whole pirated music thing. so on amazon a bunch of indie labels like barsuk and subpop put out free samplers so i can download them! theres a page of all the free music available on amazon with like 800 songs and im addicted. i even got old jazz from the 50s. itunes sucks in comparison (or just in general). bob mould is a very cool dude. he should be played on the peak because he sounds like a peak person. he was in some famous band i cant remember and now hes bald and does solo albums that are awesome. purevolume.com has turned completely emo and is now usesless. emo is like my least favorite maybe tied with pop. again, it bores me. they all sound the same. and ive noticed that people dont really know what an emo band is and isnt. emo isnt just the slit your wrists kind of stuff its a style of music. not lyrics. and it was so funny when panic at the disco denied being an emo band. hellooooooooooo fueled by ramen? pretty major in 2000s emo, whether you dress like sgt pepper or not. ***weezers "emo" album pinkerton does not suck***

light powered!
im only saying this because it somewhat has to do with music but harpers island is crazy ass shit. i watched all the episodes online and now i understand it its pretty genius. im pretty sure the killer is jimmy because he is nice and fairly good looking. so the idea of the show is that someone dies in each episode and in the last one you find out the killer. this week the fat man died but there was the most ridiculous death music playing. it sounded like tom jones wtf. also transatlanticism was used in very weird context.
listen to gentle giant. one of the most talented bands ever. 70s prog.
what is with all the poptards sampling. its gross to my ears. main offenders: flo rida, rhianna, debarges daughter, kanye west (not one of his songs is 100% original music)
1. belated promise ring- iron and wine (new album!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
2. the steve mcqueens- the evening rig (not the one by the automatic)
3. vermillion plaza- deastro (ive featured deastro before go buy them)
