I haven't written anything in here in a while
So I'll do one of those what I've been listening to posts:

James Chance and the Contortions - Buy
No Wave/Free jazz stuff from the late 70's. Really awesome, one of the most talented bands to come out of the No Wave thing in New York City.

The Mountain Goats - All Hail West Texas
A record that I loved in high school that I haven't listened to in too long. Awesome, lofi acoustic folk stuff. Just one of the 15+ perfect MGs records.

Beck - Odelay
I got into Beck so late, I can't say anything about this record that hasn't already been said. Odelay is a word, look it up in the Becktionary

25 years ago this month, the greatest record in the history of rock and roll was released.

This is an idea I stole from another blog (I do that a lot). I'm going to post video links that I love, at least one everyday. Along with all my other self-important music reviews.

Here's the first:

Tragedy show on Sunday, and Fucked Up and Mission of Burma
I am the most excited

Bands I got into because the name sounded cool

Fag Cop
Saw them on a blog, the name sounded punk as fuck so I checked them out. Total lofi noisy punk, awesome band.

Masshysteri
Awesome Swedish punk. The most catchy band I've heard in a while, even if I don't know what they're saying.


More stuff worth mentioning:
Psyched to Die - Sterile Walls
Newer band featuring ex-members of the Ergs! and Forward to Death. They do the 80's hc style really well. Its weird to hear Mikey Erg's vocals in a hc band but it works.

Government Warning has a new record, will review when I buy it

Slayer is one of the most painfully overrated bands ever
I said it

Last Lights - US out of New England

a perfect song
