I put From Blown Speakers on my mix, and then you posted "I really need to get into them" or words to that effect in the thread about it so I thought I could make the claim

Well, I don't remember now. Maybe I'm exercising revisionist history here. Really, does it matter? They're raddening my life AS WE SPEAK.

I have always been disturbed by the name Neko Case.  It sounds like something ******##### would make up.  Also, you kids today, why are the song clips on websites so short?  I need more time than that to make up my mind.
Did you listen to the Neko Case mp3 posted a few pages back? It is the full song and not scary.

I must respectfully disagree.  I will say only this: "The Laws Have Changed."

I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR.

The Laws Have Changed is in my top 5 (maybe top 3, depends on my mood) but All for Swinging You Around is undisputed champion.

The last five songs on Electric Version are all beautiful, especially in order.

I have yet to acquire Mass Romantic, but like half the songs on Twin Cinema are also treasure. I still can't stop listening to "Jackie Dressed in Cobras" when the mood strikes me.

It is basically impossible to be unhappy while listening to their music.

Yes, I see this now. 

According to this Borders website here, they only have Twin Cinema at the one around the corner from me.  Will this keep me happy enough while I wait for the others to come in the mail?  Of the whole songs on their website, the ones from that album were not my favorites.

My home is being taken over by Canadian bands.  Those wily Northerners.

I like it best.  But apparently I'm alone in this.

Twin Cinema will make you happy. It's not as good as Electric Version, in my opinion, but that's like saying that a sapphire's less pretty than a diamond. Both of them are basically like treasure.

I think they ARE treasure. At least, I'm pretty sure that there were some diamonds and sapphires mixed in with all of the gold coins in Scrooge McDuck's giant swimming pool/money vault.

If those McDucks have fooled me again, I will be FURIOUS.

DAMN those people at Borders who have no respect for the alphabet.  I couldn't find the damn thing.

Eh, it's OK.  I am now going crazy on Amazon, crazy I tell you.

You should go to Revolution Records on Conn. right by the Van Ness stop. It's so freaking awesome. Sometimes I just sit in the listening rooms watching the lava lite and looking at the articles from a 1983 copy of Sesame Street magazine.

Indeed a New Pornographers song was on my last widely-distributed mix, as was Neko's "Deep Red Bells."  I think "Letter From an Occupant" is their best track, but there are many fine ones to choose from.

Have you heard about the big fat Best Buy $7.99 indie CD sale?  There is much hand-wriging as to whether this is a good thing, or whether it's going to destroy the few remaining independent music stores left in this country.  All I know is, I'm picking up the most recent New Pornographers record after work today, and I'm mildly annoyed that I paid more for Bloc Party and Broken Social Scene.

Cort thinks I should take my actual physical body out of the neighborhood to buy a CD?  I don't think I've done this since lava lites were in fashion the first time around....   No, wait, I'm not THAT old.
