See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

Closed Threads

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

He's joined the circus. Huh. From the official NMH website:

There are currently plans to release a two-volume set of early Neutral Milk Hotel, featuring music from the early, self-released cassettes, live performances, and unreleased recordings. The band wants to do this as a result of the excessive prices at which bootlegs are currently selling online and elsewhere. They will be available from Orange Twin. No date has been decided upon for released. It could be awhile in the future.

Jeff has been working on a collection of short stories. He also just joined the circus and wants to make a movie about snails.

If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically, Talib Kweli. Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense But I did five mill' - I ain't been rhymin like Common since (Jay-Z)

Any one like the Soviettes?

Someone gave me the CD as a gift a few weeks ago and it's very cool pop/punk.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I've downloaded all of those early NMH bootlegs (Beauty, Hype City Soundtrack, and Invent Yourself a Shortcake), and they are mostly unlistenable.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Shanshu, I'll have to have a listen.

they are mostly unlistenable.

Because there are no songs, or because the quality is so poor?

Any one like the Soviettes?

They're OK in that punkity-rockity way. Not life-changing, but fun.

It's not highly original, I'll give you that. But I was very excited to find a new band to like. That doesn't happen enough.

Invent Yourself a Shortcake is all sound collages, Hype City all rough demos, and Beauty splits the difference. I have 'em in pretty good sound quality and would be happy to send them to you if you're interested.

Also, I seem to think that I've promised CDs to people and failed to deliver. If anyone feels that I've slighted them, please say so. I'm a forgetful guy, but not intentionally so.

grins sheepishly

Uhm, that wasn't directed at me - but I'd love your favorite one - whichever one you find yourself more inclined to listen to. And, of course would be happy to trade anything you can think of that I have that you'd want - I need to list my recently acquired boots. I just finished (like just this morning) my Feb. Mix if you're interested. It is embarassing in its inspired by BuffistaMusicThreadness.

Also - I haven't read too much of it yet due to stoopid having to work - but the new high hat looks really good.

Also, I seem to think that I've promised CDs to people and failed to deliver.

Oh, me too. SA it is ridiculous how long I've owed you CDs. Please forgive. I swear I'll get em sent out one of these days.

But I was very excited to find a new band to like. That doesn't happen enough.

That is how it used to be for me and then it changed 180 degrees. I can't seem to turn my head without finding some new band or artist I have to go spend money on. For instance. I was watching Letterman on Friday and saw Leona Naess. I'd never heard of her before - her self titled album came out in 2003 to rave reviews, though. Now I must own it - her voice is really heartbreaking.

Hmm. I just noticed the fly in my logic ointment here. Clearly if you think they are unlistenable you don't have a favorite. So the least unlistenable one, maybe?

Owowowowow! Stop twisting my arm.

OK.

Or you can just hand me a set of copies in a few weeks.
