Hans, boubie, I'm your white knight

holy shit, I can't stop listening to Run The Jewels 2

Bob Dylan.

No, that happened to me once, on accident. I was on a double date, and I had that on a CD in my car. I wasn't really paying attention, because I was chatting up my date in the front seat. But the people in the back heard it, and kinda flipped out.I did not get laid that night.Wang
haha, that's so awesome. If I get to meet jamie when I see them later this month, I think I might tell him that story.
whee yeah, i'm a fan.
are you by any chance going to see them on the 27th(I noticed you're from chicago)? I'm going to visit a friend in chicago that weekend, and I think I'm gonna go.

Start with the poppy stuff, and move from there.Tracks like "Beanbag Chair," "Autumn Sweater," "Stockholm Syndrome," "Center of Gravity."Those are good pop songs. After that, you're getting into the more feedbacky/sonically innovative stuff.It's all fantastic though. Download the album "I can hear the heart beating as one."Wang

haven't decided yet. i'd like to.
no song gets me pumped up like Down Rodeo by Rage
ratm. i remember when evil empire came out, i was like 16 i think...i lovvvvvved the first album so so much, and i really thought brendan o'brien kinda ruined e.e. GGGARTH's production on the first album is so clean and awesome. evil empire sounds durrty in comparison. like they just plugged in, set up a couple mics and pressed 'rec'. after a couple years though i really liked evil empire too. i think the energy is almost better because of how loose the production is. bulls on parade would be my choice for 'in case of emergency break glass' song.

Man, I was in 8th grade, I think, when it came out. My mom was kinda vigilant about "inappropriate music" when I was a kid, since I had a younger brother 6 grades behind me, so I had to listen to The SelfImmolating Monk Album in my room, alone, with the headphones on.I bummed a ride from a friend of mine to the mall (you could drive in KS when you were 14 or 15, depending on the circumstances) and bought Evil Empire the day it came out. At first I had the EXACT same qualms as you, but I was a little too unrefined to really elucidate what it was that bothered me. After a few months, though, I actually liked Evil Empire better than RATM, precisely because I think the lo-fi production goes well with the desperate, frenzied, MADCAP tone of the band.I think I'm one of the very few big Rage fans that enjoys Evil Empire more.Wang

i love the way evil empire sounds. i think its their best album and that sound really suits them. they are a band that should sound gritty and kinda third world.

Is anyone else really pissed about Tower Records closing. There was a great one near my house in Connecticut and it was the only place where I would by music. The prices were good and they had some great sales. Now that it's gone, whenever I go home, I won't be able to buy music. It's kind of going to ruin my life.I never got into this whole iTunes thingy. I mean, I love iTunes and use it all the time, but I would never buy music through it. I need something tangable to hold, or to play in my car when I'm driving, or to display in a giant case to show off to everyone how many CD's I own and how good they are and therefore how good of a person I am. Plus if my computer were to crash and I were to lose my music, I'd have to murder someone. And I don't want to go to jail./rant.

We're pretty blessed in Seattle to have a couple of great independent local chains, Easy Street Records and Sonic Boom Records, to shop at.

It's always sad when music store chain closes down, but there's not one anywhere close to here, so it's not a huge deal for me. And, ya, I buy all my music at A)Best Buy or B) little indie record stores around town.

After a long week of exams, nothing sounds better than a Radiohead session.
I decided, for my date on Saturday, to make a 1/2 Radiohead + 1/2 Junior Boys CD. This is a gamble, but I thank you- regardless- for giving me a heads-up on the recent Junior Boys CD. God help me,Wang

Not so much of a gamble. If you're half Radiohead you've got to be at least a 4:1 fav.

If the world were perfect, I'd be like 1:250 to get laid here. Sadly, I'm going to hope she recognizes {nice dream} from that time she got all stoned her junior year of highschool.I'm also thinking about tossing in a little Johnny Cash. I think girls might appreciate guys who appreciate Johnny Cash. I have no basis for this, apart from my very very short friend getting a respectable amount of *** he attributes directly to his Johnny Cash fanhood.Wang
