There are a few Carolina exclusives coming out on Friday. So far, I’ve identified Sylvan Esso, Mountain Man and The Brief Encounter. Wallet is sooooo tired.
I just want to stop for a moment and appreciate all of you. This is the only place where serious music discussion happens and folks can freely wave their banners for Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson and other seemingly reviled acts.
Ceremonials turns 10 on Sunday. I guess it is getting promoted from one of my favorite albums of the decade to one of my favorite albums of the century.
Listening to the new Strand of Oaks and contemplating spinning some War on Drugs next. Made me wonder if my wife is okay with all the dad rock I listen to. Then I remembered that she’s into Fleetwood Mac and the Foo Fighters.
I wonder how weird people’s junk (e)mail is. I get lots of record stuff and lots of cooking stuff. Then there is all the weird medical shit because I am a healthcare worker.
Someone the other day was talking about how Genesis seemed like two completely different bands… the prof band and then the pop band. Listening to The Division Bell tonight, Pink Floyd comes off as three - acid rock, stoner prog and then whatever their last three records are - old dude arena rock?
