How does Rush's "Red Sector A" draw from the prophetic traditions of the O.T. to relate the Holocaust survival story of Geddy Lee's parents.
Whereas this was going to be the sequel to the Unabomber's manifesto.
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

It would if you coughed up the money for a private server, dude.
It was also that he kept the files from all of the 250+ posts up on the server. While that's awesome for, say, me, it meant that his traffic was always going up because people found they could download from the archive as well as the most recent posts. *shrug* He's going to keep making his mixes, though, and they rock.
You know what I love most about Cake? I know two other people who are mad about them, each is passionately in love with their Very Best Album and all three of us love a different album the best.
So I'm listening to WFMU and they played this cool track by Camera Obscura ("Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken" "If Looks Could Kill") so I ran off to eMusic to see if they had it and they did so I added it to my "save for later" list... but then I noticed that that album art looked familiar [link] so I checked and found I'd already downloaded that album. I think a few months ago. Damn, I am just adding albums to my iTunes faster than I can try them out (like, listen to a few times).
Another thing that's occurred to me is back in college I could listen to my favorite albums quite often, as back then I had maybe 250-300 albums by the time I graduated. Now I think I have about 1200, so even if I like an album a lot, the set of all albums that I like a lot is quite large, so a lot of those albums in that set only get listened to a couple times a year - or less.
Still, totally a first-world complaint. I should be grateful I'm part of a culture that produces so much excellent music.
I didn't know Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney) was playing with S. Malkmus now. That's just cool. If they can just get Mike Watt on bass, then they could have supergroup.
That is cool news. I think Watt's too busy filling Dave Alexander's shoes right now.
Hey, you know how the RIAA is suing file sharers because file-sharing is destroying the music market? Well, a new study says that's all bullshit: [link]

Joanna Bolme is cuter. A lot cuter. Is she still bassing for the Jicks?
In a similar vein, Patty Griffin also has a relatively new album and it is also getting rave reviews.
