WHAT I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO ON 10/04

Holy Fuck's new LP is decent, not enough vocals for my taste to call the album fantastic or recommend it. Mgmt's Oracular Spectacular is spectacular; the same goes for The Ssion's Oppurtunity Bless My Soul, an album that came out a few years ago (before they dropped "the" and became simply Ssion.. also before Street Jizz) an impressive album for such a trivial band. Anita Ward is classic. Tears for Fears are classic. The Birthday Party are classic. I can't help but wonder if Nick Cave would be pissed at me for me putting his track after Tears for Fears'.. although it's really just a matter of random selection. KOL are sort of classic.. at least The Bucket is anyway. Put the Boy 8 Bit remix on there solely because of how good the Any Way You Choose To Give It remix was (Black Ghosts). Track #9 serves as the best song on this enjoyable October e-compilation. Brandy Alexander is my favorite Feist song (and Walkman song..) Was tempted to put a Styx song up here tonight (cough.. Renegade..cough) very tempted. I saved you. I've not posted any Styx on Mewzick yet what so ever. Impressive! Next post expect a write-up on a band called The Vaselines, 1980's punk-rock band. Opened for Nirvana in the 90's. Odd, not known, pretty cool, etc.
