@achewood The bus is crossing Klickitat St., home of Ramona Quimby. It's pretty swank these days. No sign of Nosmo King.

talk like a ***** in the habititting way!

lately I have been jamming with Sufjan's Illinois, John Darnielle's The Sunset Tree, Of Montreal's Sunlandic Twins, and plus a recent little "rediscovery" of mine (yeah, I suck), Olivia Tremor Control's Dusk at Cubist Castle.

ALRIGHT!

After reading a review of Motion City Soundtrack's new album I decided to go DL their first one. I'm enjoying the first few songs quite a bit but not so much the ones at the end.

The Fall's Complete Peel Sessions Box Set has started travelling the buccaneer circuit in advance of the US release on May 23rd.

And there is so much wonderful stuff in it. I'm placing my preorder at Siren Disc this weekend.

I have one very minor quibble about it. I miss Peelie's bridging comments about the songs from my old bootlegs.

Other than that though, the music just smokes. Especially the version of Eat Y'Self Fitter.

I just DL's the title track from The New Pornographers next album. It's definitely fun but they have a lot to live up to since Electric Version. Damn that's a fine album.

This one reminds me too much of the AC Newman solo album, which wasn't bad but still. I kinda wished they woulda picked a Dan Bejar song as the lead single, but that's because his Destroyer stuff has been knocking me the fuck out with its' greatness lately. Especially Streethawk and the MergeFest 2004 live set.

Best review I've seen so far of the new NIN album:

You guys should check out Separation Sunday by The Hold Steady.  It's good.

Also, Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball is one of the most beautiful things EVER.

Also on heavy rotation:  OP8:  Slush.  Lisa Germano with Howe Gelb of Giant Sand, and Joey Burns and John Convertino of (currently) Calexico.  Lisa Germano is a beautiful person.

I just got ahold of 69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields and it is awesome. I first heard them on Last.fm which is quickly becoming my primary source for new music. I've only really listened to the first disc so far, but I really like I Don't Want to Get Over You, Let's Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits, and Reno Dakota.

I've also been listening to a lot of Mars Volta recently. I first heard them through Last.fm as well, and I've really been enjoying their CD Deloused in the Comatorium. Sometimes they get a little too far out there and really lose me, but some of the songs (and parts of songs) are so unbelievably tight I can't help but like them. Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt is awesome, for example.

Not to be shitting all over your parade but the first disc is the only really superb one of the three.  They're all good, though.

Max, I'm glad to hear you say that, because I've always thought that too but I've heard others say that they like either 2 or 3 the best.  I guess it depends on your mood.

"I Don't Want to Get Over You" and "I Think I Need a New Heart" are my two favourites, followed by "Reno Dakota" "A Chicken with its Head Cut Off" and "I'm the Luckiest Guy From the Lower East Side".

Great lyrics on those first three.  Very clever but touching at the same time.
