A little piece of last-minute braindead on my part. I apologize and have fixed it.

i hate/can't get into/haven't been fucked to hear most of the indie rock you listed, but most of the non-indie rock stuff is shit i can dig. i feel a little offended you list patti smith in the same list as calexico, sufjan stevens, and the arcade fire, too. most of these bands are just rehashing something any number of great artists have done a thousand times (this is always true, of course), just watering it down, adding in elements that don't work, or are just repackaging it for a new generation ( ... )

1. Sufjan Stevens - The Rev. Gary Davis: He does more than what Sufjan can do with a single guitar, but it's refreshingly simple, and not as precious, and he has more of the religion Sufjan seeks than a lot of us ever will. (Plus, he was born in my home state, albeit almost a hundred years before I was ( ... )

hey a post hi

this place served us well for some years

this is a lotta kinda the same w/an occasional side-step plus some who-cares

I like Kaputt as much as the next guy, but my eyes glaze over at the P*fork-circa-2003ness of this (you know they review rap music now)

top 5 micro-house lol

top 5 Cantonese Arcade Fire cover bands

uhm

I think when we first asked people for a music video it seemed novel.

I joined to see if there was anything going on in the members posts, and perhaps I should have just slipped out the backdoor after spying, but anyway.

I'm just gonna fold my hand, as the only micro-house I can even think of is Matthew Dear, and the idea of posting pictures of small houses is a lot less funny than it was at 2 this morning, now that I've had some sleep. (It was never really funny.)

I like that video and the musical it comes from, if only because I wish real life were like that sometimes. (Though, then again, think of the highway accidents...)

A college friend of mine sent me a bunch of CDs and I liked the idea that Hella was two dumb kids from California. I don't know about their other albums, but I like the second song ("Biblical Violence") in the background when I'm studying.

As for xbxrx, damn Carlos Moore, I don't even know, it makes me smile.

It's the hair on the mom and the older girl. It's my aunt's hair, and she's suddenly standing in the kitchen, smoking a cigarette in my mind.

They do have a good song about the end of times, though.
