Have always thought that weird noise was guitar.
I believe the theremin was only used during the crazy break in the middle: [link]

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.

That seriously maybe one of the prettiest pictures of a newborn and mom I have ever seen, CI - she is going to be a stunner - just like her mom.

Paging HEC!! Major haircut alert!
I am getting ALL the hair cut off. My hair currently falls to the middle of my back and has some seriously unkempt layers. Wed. night = major change.
I am going for the ever-popular angled bob. Shorter in back (but not so short as to require shaving the neck), longer (chunky layers?) up front. I am getting one solid color with highlights on my now totally color-free head.
Anyway. I am now also the proud owner of a digital camera - so there will be pics on Thursday. Yay!
Music news?
I have been kind of blah about music lately. Saw the Thermals. They were great. I don't know. The new Spoon is fine. My favorite album of the year may end up being Mapmaker by Parts & Labor. I can't put my iPod in without listening to "The Gold We're Digging" at least twice.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
On eMusic, 'Parts & Labor' have a separate listing from 'Parts And Labor'. Each has different albums listed.
Anyway, I'll have to check Mapmaker and Spoon's Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga (that's the one you're talking about, right?) when I get home.

I noticed that too, tommyrot. Both the "and" and the "&" versions of Parts and Labor are the same band. And both albums (Stay Afraid and Mapmaker) are great.
Spoon's Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga (that's the one you're talking about, right?)
Yes. Sasha Frere-Jones says it sounds like the Pixies (he likes the album) but I think it just sounds like Spoon. A good album all around.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I like both of those albums, too. I especially dig Parts & Labor's cover of the Minutemen's "King of the Hill."
And thanks, Tina!

Yeah, I figured they were when I saw they were both from the same city. 'Cuz otherwise, confused hipsters would be rioting.

How much do I love that the band that grabs the #1 spot is Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem ?
