3.5/5
Fun, spazzy, balls out (even if it is a chick), pretense-free pop-punk, nothing more nothing less. And you know what? There's nothing wrong with that.

Something/Anything?

Still on side 1. Pretty good so far. The only song I'd ever heard before was the first one.

Jeff Buckley & Gary Lucas - Farewell Angelina

4.5/5

4/5
The older guys are really holding it down this year!
(Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., The Meat Puppets, Pearl Jam, Bob Dylan, U2... all of em have released some pretty damn good albums this year)

nice. I didn't think you liked chopped n screwed music. I went thru a bit of a phase over the summer myself.

 

3/5 -- pretty good show, okay sound quality, focusing mostly on doo-wop stuff. The Mothers are super-tight on this performance though.

I dont usually like chopped and screwed versions of songs that weren't recorded that way, it usually just sounds shitty.
But, I do like DJ screw's music, there is a difference between his stuff and what is now called 'chopped and screwed'.
I've always liked Screw Music. I'm from Houston after all XD.
I've never seen that Zappa one.

there's a lot of lazy choppedscrewd, but I do think Michael 500 Watts is good. He definitely is creative with it. The bonus disc he did for Carter II is very good.

That Zappa album is part of the Beat The Boots series. Boxsets of live albums released by Rhino in the 90's. I like them a lot because they're very raw and varied representations of various points of his career.
