Summer. Got a cold. Or is it allergies. No idea. Alls I know is I'm swimming through the clouds on this here syrup. Gonna hit the pillow for a little coma-doze.
Went on tour recently. Threw down a few hundred on records. I mean, isn't that one of the primary reasons for touring anyway? Had a coupla Iron Cross 7"s in my fingers. Sure they're crap records, but romantic ones at that. Mr. Epp, Fuck Ups, stared 'em in the face too. Couldn't pull the trigger. Knew it'd be another day, another city, another record store for the duration of tour. Spoiled Brats - Rip Off 7" probably being my top grab for the time spent digging. Scratch that, first Helmet 7" for $10. Never seen it before, never thought I'd find it, especially not for that price.
So what's tickling my eardrums these days? Puerto Rico Flowers 7" and 12" are jaw droppers. That new-ish Zola Jesus 12"EP kills too. Picked up a Zoogz Rift LP, along with Eddy Grant "Electric Avenue" and Byrds "So You Want To Be a Rock N Roll Star" 7"s. Great day. Ceremony (not the Bridge 9 band) LP, new Drunkdriver, Broken Water, Wild America demo and 7". All winners.
One day I'll post regularly. Maybe.

Chilled to the bone.
It's 5am. Still ain't tired. Horseshit, I know.
'09 is newly dead. Another great year for music. Really though, is there ever a BAD year? Kinda feel that if you think it was a bad year, then YOU weren't looking hard enough. You're probably just a dried up old twat or something, with shit taste.
Not exactly active on this ole blog. Not all that active across the board. Real into any old thing that'll waste my time and have no constructive impact. Guess I'll just make a preliminary list of 2009's shakers and movers.
LPs:
Cult Ritual. Mika Miko. Kurt Vile (all 3). Cat Party. Pains Of Being Pure At Heart. Dry Rot. Francis Harold and The Holograms. Home Blitz. Tyvek. Twin Stumps. Vivian Girls. Electric Bunnies. Pissed Jeans. Psychedelic Horseshit. Homostupids. Scrotum Poles. Medication.
Re-Issues:
Black Randy and The Metrosquad. Raincoats. Agnostic Front. Feelies. Flipper. Faust. Jesus Lizard. Vaselines. Television Personalities.
7"s:
Ecoli. Broken Water. Witches. Wild Thing. Condominium. Raw Nerve. Failures. Fresh Meat. Middle America. Mika Miko. Watery Love.
At some point soon I'll break it down to facts and figures. Hash out numbered list, like a real nerd. Give y'all a bit more to chew on.
