Y'know, I've been flashing so hard on the new Slayer, TV on the Radio, and Comets on Fire (based in part on your thumbs up) -- plus like a spoiled fat kid I picked up the new Mastodon at lunch today -- that I haven't even opened it yet. I found the Benjamin Breeg song on-line and I like it a lot though, so I'll get around to the album proper soon enough.

Oh no, Rob, that's not obvious

hear that?
ROB
Shut up. "Let's Get It On," Marvin
Gaye, from Let's Get It On.
"Airbag," Radiohead, from OK
Computer.
BARRY
(sarcastic)
Ooh! A kind of recent record!
Rob's sly declaration of new
classic-status slipped into a list
of old classics! Nice! "Let's Get
It On?" Couldn't you make it more
obvious than that?
