new musicccccc

if you are not a fan of The Thermals, please be advised you are MISSING OUT. they are from portland, oregon, plus one right? they're all fun pop-punk tinged indie rock on Sub Pop, you could kinda maybe put them with Guided By Voices/The Hold Steady/Ted Leo? I don't know; comparisons like that are fucking useless. all I know is their last album, The Body, The Blood, The Machine is all killer and no filler. it's the type of album that explains why 50% of the crowd at any Hold Steady show is bro dudes in funny saying tshirts. meaning: they appeal across the board. I know at least 3 awesome people who like them: Mark D, his friend Dave, and Michael. nuff said.

the new album drops April 7th, but until then click here to download their new single, courtesy of the A.V. Club. propz. this band is seriously funny, like pitchfork being credited with 'breaking' broken social scene. reference reference reference link band reference fashion.

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.

Amazing Baby was one of the best bands out of Brooklyn that I got into in 2008; dog knows there were a lot of them. barf.  if I said they sounded like semi-fuzzy hipstery glam-rock, you probably wouldn't listen to them, so that is why you don't listen to me. instead, you go to here and download their EP, Infinite Fucking Cross for free. 

then, you click below and listen to their new song, 'Bayonets', off of the forthcoming full length, to be out this summer. get in on the ground floor with these guys. 

seriously people I am lady gaga

oh my, neglecterinos,

I have quite simps been all over the place.

we no longer have cable tv at the apartment, due to us not paying for it/HD transition, so life has simply ceased to be for me. I mean, I die without the serious fashion no-no's, and THIS IS AWARDS SEASON. a girl can't afford to buy EVERY tabloid, now cmon.

I missed the Grammys on sunday, although I made sure to watch via the intranet MIA's performance. bitch showed up, ON HER DUE DATE PEOPLE, and killed it. she also wore this. I know I am going to dress locosauce when I'm knocked up, but girl is next levs and knows it:


it's things like this that make my life worthwhile.

but in all seriousness, I've been on mode haywire as of late. i'm feeling some big changes are gonna come. possibly new job, possibly two new jobs, maybe getting back in the ol' D&D game, and making some goddamn friends and movin' on out.

when I get overwhelmed like this I have to head home, which is what I am doing, tomorrow afternoon. I get what I need, but sometimes too much so. I should be in a Disney movie, the way I wanna make these dreams come true!

I pretty much feel like everyone needs space from me, so I'm giving it to them.

I suppose some major newz will break soon.

you can teach a dog new tricks.

those of us who are Smiths fans, know that Morrissey is one loopy lad. he writes love songs that are either about men, or women, or both; fat girls he doesn't love and won't marry; songs about dead children buried on the moors; he writes lines so terrible ('I wear black on the outside/because black is how I feel on the inside') they are almost, but not really, good. And that was just with the Smiths.

for years he has claimed total celibacy, and written lots of solo stuff about it. but apparently now the Moz is back, and either went on, or off, the crazy pills, because this new album art of his is questionable at best. behold the bonkerz cover of the new Morrissey album, 'Years of Refusal':


Okayyyyy. so now he fancies himself a pop pop. but for real, he is clearly gayer than thou in that shirt/necklace/chest hair combo. but if this album cover is next levs, then the inner sleeve for the 'Paris' 7inch, is POST levs.



'hi' not included.

oh lordy. seems the ol' boy is finally bust out of the closet. that's the thing about you indie boys.......always braggin' about some 7 inches YOU DON'T HAVE.

hiyo.
