Memory Tapes - Today is Our Life
Riding some major chillwaves, yall.

So that's what he was after all these years...

...to take over the world, one observational joke at a time.

Remember these guys?

Warms my heart. Except when he doesn't rhyme "outrageous" with "contagious"... that makes me want to stab something.

Love how he rhymes "drunk uncle" with "Garfunkle."

Too bad the way he talks makes my ears bleed.

So, this exists:

As obnoxious as Matt and Kim are...

...I love a good fight

YESSS.

Music Nerd Fact of the Day

Iron Maiden's song "The Trooper" was actually based off of this poem.

It all makes sense now.

This is suprisingly funny video of the day

I never thought Fred Armisen was funny, except for when he did the Bartman.

After that beginning song, I'm sold. Sounds like West Philly.

This Man Man/Islands/Modest Mouse/Mikey Cera superband ain't bad...

Post-rock goodness

I was just rocking out to some post-rocky kinda stuff last night with my roommate. And today I keep getting all these messages from this band on Facebook. I went to college with the one guy. Turns out, it's pretty darn good. Really tech. Worth spacing out to.

Just sayin'

New Decemberists album streaming on NPR

Snag it here.

Skimming through it now...
Not sure what to think...
First couple of songs are boring...
Kinda want some metal prog parts a la "The Tane" and "Crane Wife"...
"Rox in the Box" sounds aight, yo...
Some sort of mining song...
Makes me want to dig for gold and drink moonshine...
Starting to think that "Hazards of Love" was better...
"Down by the Water" seems to be their 'hit single'...
Already over "Down by the Water"...
They really are channelling their inner Billy Ray Cyrus with ""All Arise!"...
"This is why we fight" might save this album...
NOOOO they use the emo chord progression! Immediately mega-cheesy...
Why is this song so long?...
Last song is sooooo boring...
I wonder how many times Colin Meloy used the term "Rattle your bones" in his career...
I was really expecting some crazy build and a mega climax or something...

To quote the dad dude from Inception, "DISAPPOINTED"

Goddamnit, Decemberists...

This is kinda interesting...

So this exists....

The metal gods glare down from Valhalla unfavorably.
