A quick disclaimer about the brand new posting today: there is very very minimal music provided today, BUT the one song I will be giving you a little furter down is a truly stellar and brrrraaaaaannnnnnd spanking new piece of glittering music goodness. Overall I'm really just checking in with the people who read this and know me so they can go on knowing that I'm not lying unconcious in a ditch off of Rt. 50 next to the Silk Stockings strip club.No, I'm very much concious and taking advantage of the wonderful marriage of coffee and free internet. For the time being I have to get all inter-business done at coffee shops, that is until this weekend/early next week when I get my internet AND cable set up. I'm missing the Kevin Smith directed Degrassi episodes right so they better show up in the ONdemand section of my local cable provider. I'm slowly moving in to the new house, most of which has included unpacking CD's and records. I was pleased to find that the combination of broken (and now fixed, thank god) AC and extreme summer heat did not warp the records I had left at the house over the summer. Drew gets into town tomorrow and Dave looks like he's getting in Sunday, so by monday we'll all be residing in Cincinnati, which is good news for you, trust me. But as of right now, things are good in Cinci, I havent seen too many people yet, but there aren't many people here right now anyways.
As for that promised muscial piece we have a brand spanking new track from Broken Social Scene's new album that's coming out in October. I remeber I heard a rougher version of this song a while back, and to be frank, didn't like it all that much. So, needless to say, I was not all that pumped to see that this was the first song I was allowed to download off of their label's website. That said, the track is pretty fantastic, and has once again gotten me extremely excited for the beginning of October. It features the back and forth male/female vocal interplay of YFITP''s "Almost Crimes" but it doesn't seem like a re-hash. The band's sound is still driving and extrememly tight. So, yeah, since downloading it about an hour ago, I've probably listened to it 5 or 6 times. It's super fantastic. So without further ado I present
Broken Social Scene - "7/4 (Shoreline)"
Another quick piece of news, The Deadly Snakes are getting ready to release a new album which, by all accounts, looks like I'll have to buy twice in two different forms. Of course, I'm going to want it on CD, which is a 13 track album, so that will be purchased no question. But was that enough of my money for those scheming Canucks? Noooooooo, of course not, they are also releasing a 2o track, two LP version of the album. DAMN YOU CANADA!!!!!!
Love,
John
