but they aren't silly. they don't make stupid music.
redd kross just reminds me of when i was 13 and "punk rock" and i don't want to think about that.

You have to do what you have to do. I dumped loads of grunge records in the mid-1990s because of a terrible case of grunge burnout.

pink floyd made some of the silliest music i've ever heard.:p

I used to think so! I wouldn't touch Dark Side with a barge pole, and now it's a favorite.

HA! HA HA HA!
told you.

pink floyd (and yes i realise you were making an ill-fated attempt to take the piss) were actually rather serious

Just goes to show, say the old folks... you never can tell...

i love that song

Yeah, I think I got it wrong though. It's more like, C'est la vie, say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell.

Chuck was a poet.

and he didn't even know it.

(and yeah you got it right the second time but i knew what you meant anyway)

on topic:

haha
i LOVE that picture

it is one of my least favorite song, it's just that it's played everywhere and i'm not particularly fond of the guitar sound and the vocal melodies. i still listen to it and sing along if it comes up somewhere. in my opinion, what they tried to do with "personal jesus" they achieved it in "i feel you".

johnny cash does it better, imo.

The Triffids - Born Sandy Devotional

American Music Club - Everclear

do you like them, then?

Yes :) I may not like all the choices in production, but I dig Eitzel's voice (it reminds me a bit of David Sylvian) and the atmospheres of the songs.

a leak of REM's new record "Accelerate".

the most old-skool-REM-sounding record they've done since they were old skool REM.

It's totally 1986-1989 era jangle rock. And really good. If you like REM I think you'll fucking LOVE this.

Listened to today:

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of The Moon
Pink Floyd - Animals
David Bowie - Low
David Bowie - Reality

Now Listening: Depeche Mode - Violator

April Tenth by Garbage
pienso que sea muy bonita

Britney Spears on Youtube.

sonny boy williamson - when the lights go out

which song?

Various Artists - Nuggets

Toxic, now it is Gimme More.

I'm listening to the strangest mix of an instrumental lullaby playing in my baby's room heard through his baby monitor and "Out of Space" by Frank Comstock here on my iTunes. It works remarkably well, and ends up sounding rather like Zoviet France!

feist let it die
