 new project from zach de la rocha.  RATM fans will probably like it, rage-haters should stay away.  zach on vocals and synths, jon theodore (ex-mars volta) on drums.
 
 first track is streaming at    http://www.onedayasalion.org/   and on the band's myspace page.

 It's so eerie and gorgeous. I love it.

Gave the new Conor Oberst a spin a little while ago. Solid straight-forward alt-country; the angsty bitchness has all been stripped away (not that I don't like Lifted and I'm Wide Awake) which makes sense; he is getting older.
 
 
 Then put on another new Carlos Giffoni LP. It had its moments but is no Eternal Noise.
 
 
 Now: Magnetic Fields - The Wayward Bus.

 Nice to hear these guys again, but as their sound has progressed, my liking for them has declined. The 3-album arc of Random Noise-Bursts through Mars Audiac to Emperor Tomato is just superb. But once they started using the vibes, it all kind of went pants up for me. So where there used to be droney noise waves, now it's happy horns, twinkly vibes and bouncy rhythms. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not what I look for with this band.
