i dont agree with their politics(anarchy is bullshit), but the lyrics are in the info.  fascinating and powerfully blunt.

My favorite dude's new album is getting lots of attention which is interesting because I think of his scene as one the Pitchfork crowd is not into. I realize that that is wishful thinking. But there is definitely a sub-stratum of awesome garage rock bands who Pitchfork maybe reviews sometimes but doesn't play up too much, who all play on each others' albums, who never come to St Louis, who I love the most. The eastern outpost is Nashville, and the western is obviously San Francisco.

Whenever bands I like play on late-night TV, the sound is awful.

This asshole is 25 and has put out so many great albums. I have not listened to the new one enough yet to say whether this is one of them.

Local rag reviewed my roommates' album and got the personnel all wrong. It will be available for free online by the end of the week. Awesome.

I think they are pretty unhappy about the "sounds like shit" comment. They did the best they could with a limited budget. But I don't wanna get in this argument with you guys again.

I have not heard it yet. Anxiously awaiting an mp3 of my favorite song.

Aforementioned favorite song.

I love that damn riff at the beginning. Ahhhh. When they play it live it is a tiny bit faster and off-kilter and distorted. Mmmmm.

My roommates had their big album release party. It was awesome. At the end I was drenched in sweat and beer. All of my friends rocked out and danced and it was great. They put on a really great show. The other band that played was... bad?... and it made my roommates look really good.

Their album is good.

Fluxblog is a music blog. For the past two years they have put out an end of year round up of the years best tracks. These are huge 8 disc  collections, completely downloadable.

These discs have been my music guide for the past two years. I've discovered a lot of great music and artists. I've based most of my new music purchasing on what I've heard there.

I went there to see if they had put up a 2012 round up yet. Instead of that I just learned that they have actually been doing the end of year thing since 2002.

For some reason the 2009 files have been removed, but all of the rest of it is still there.

Lately I am having this impulse where I half-remember the content of a song, and then try to write what I imagine it is. So far I have done this with "100 Years from Now" and "Goddamn Job."

I am happier with the second one, I was playing it and my roommate asked what it was. Definitely good songwriting practice. The 100 Years from Now was just a real bummer that no one wants to hear. But still valuable practice.

Holy shit. Angry women and banjo and such might suck me back into giving modern country a shot.

Don't do it Ash, it's a fools errand. Although, you can put that singer in the Wouldya file. Those Hips!

They sound like Evanescence with a twang.
