billy childish - crimes against music on my new record player. :)

In the CD player right now??? hmmm, check out SKILLET on iTunes. Sample the song "whispers in the dark". The whole CD is loaded with that genre. Luv it. Try Sanctus Real, Superchick, Newsboys and Third Day, too. Great groups.

Right now I have Danity Kane playing on my computer. For those of you who don't know who that is - its a pop/hip hop band started my puff daddy. And if you don't know how that is - he's a r & b/hip hop singer.

Anything from Wilco's Sky Blue Sky

Anything from Interpol's Our Love To Admire

especially this song-

New Music: Interpol: "Pioneer to the Falls" [Stream]

The men of Interpol have kept us waiting three years for their third album, Our Love to Admire. "Pioneer to the Falls", the disc's moody (what else?) opener, doesn't rush to make its point, either. Nor does it disappoint. A dark, brittle guitar line similar to pre-Turn on the Bright Lights live rarity "Cubed" (also known as "Mascara") joins sparse piano and melancholy strings before Paul Banks' harrowed, Jim Morrison-like voice comes in, again beseeching patience: "The soul can wait." Interpol's rhythm section enters a verse later, then drops to a heartbeat on a bridge that floats in space-- "You fly straight into my heart," Banks croons, distant yet vulnerable-- until at last a trilling guitar solo soars above it all, for an emotional effect similar to the one generated by the solo on Radiohead's "Creep". "I felt you so much today," Banks concludes, as rumbling toms and rising orchestration contrast with that stately opening riff, betraying impatience, perhaps, but no hurry.

The National is also worth checking out. I love these tunes:

RIGHT now, I'm listening to No Doubt "trapped in a box" wah wah wah wah wah wah.

Earlier I was listening to Portishead, which reminded me of one of the reasons I started to smoke like an idiot, was that my older brother told me that that's why Beth Gibbons had such a cool voice. GRRRRRRR. Oh, why did I listen? I don't think decreasing your lung capacity by half is good on the old vocality. NOW I know better. Let that be a warning to you all, you won't all of a sudden be able to sing like Beth Gibbons if you pick up a tobacco habit. You'll just have extra phlegm and pay more tax.
