why the quiet groove on the blog ?
well, here’s a taster of what i’ve been listening to :
various artists : dfa records – compilation #2 [this just gets better and better]
warlocks – surgery [ a precursor to what’s coming up in the list ..]
swervedriver – 99th dream [getting the picture yet …]
junior murvin : police and thieves [didn’t hit when i picked it up last year, but is beginning to work its magic on me]
lcd soundsystem : sound of silver
lcd soundsystem : lcd soundsystem
the dfa remixes : chapter one, chapter two.
black rebel motorcycle club : all four of the bands albums.
[like u2, a deeply uncool and hated band throughout the blogosphere community that i can’t help but succumb to.
the consistent use of b+w coverart, the overly serious tones, the guitars.
give me this band over uk based landfill indie anyday].
linton kwesi johnson – lkj in dub [afternoon nap soundtrack – perfect]
muse – black holes and reservation
sonic avenger : various demos [at last, the world, (ok ok, me) gets to hear the fruits of the mans labours]
as you can see, it has been quite a spread.
reason being i have had ireallylovemusic hq to myself for a few hours this week, meaning that the stereo has been turned up, and the love of woofer crunching guitars-n-bass has been quite enjoyable after the last few weeks of techno overload.
such a noise cleanses the soul.
i am very aware of how the blog jumps around the genres giving you the reader little in the way of a consistent flow, but hey, that’s my life.
ie. a fucking mess of parenting chaos while trying to maintain a form of order in which i work day job to pay the bills.
till next time.
