I haven't listened to The Long Ryders in more than ten years.
They're pretty fucking great.
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I love that first EP and a couple songs from the first LP, but they lost me after that.
Dave Shouse (x-Grifters and Those Bastard Souls) has a new band called the Bloodthirsty Lovers. I just got back from seeing them at TT's. Fucking great! Imagine a more twisted, more rockin', Wilco.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
TV on the Radio: heck yeah.
David, that documentary sounds pretty great. I'll hunt it down.
I have a Long Ryders album I liked quite a bit back in the late 80s but I haven't listened to it much since then.
Will check out the Bloodthirsty Lovers.

re: Bloodthirsty Lovers. There's two CDs out. You want the new one -- "Delicate Seam". Although it doesn't really capture the power of them live.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
Someone gave me the new Mark Lanegan CD for my birthday, and I finally got around to listening to it.
Holy cats, it's really good! I never would have picked it up on my own and was puzzled that this person would have bought it for me, but now I'm sure glad he did.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Anyone heard the new Camper Van Beethoven?

Cool! I have two Screaming Trees songs. I love "All I Know."

Franz Ferdinand may play Ugly Sisters in the next Harry Potter film.
Or should this go in the movie thread?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I thought the band was the Weird Sisters, or Wyrd, or something like that? Anyway, huh. I keep hearing people rave about Franz Ferdinand but have not yet heard their music.

They're fun. They remind me of another Scottish band called apb whose singles I loved. Most people compare them to Orange Juice -- another Scottish band whose music I have managed to NEVER hear.
