What does everyone think about the Virgins.... I have been listening to them non-stop for the past few weeks and can't wait to see them at the Rock and Roll Hotel in January.... check out their myspace page for a listen... and check out the video for Rich Girls...get your tickets while you still can... this band is gonna blow up in 2009

I'm not sure what that is, but I think I've just been hypnotized.

It's Animal Collective's new one, Merriweather Post Pavillion...

If we did get any promos, I sure haven't seen them. I've inserted myself into the comp chain, but there's like a dozen hipsters who hover all over the mailroom looking for the free shit. I got it over the waves like everyone else. Initially had the 2-track vinyl rip, but eventually found 192 copies at ease.

Everything uploaded to the torrent sites has been  immediately yanked because they're all either transcodes of that 128 vinyl rip or the 160 cd rip.

So aggrevating.


The 160 sounds ok but each track is so densely layered with sound that I'm sure quite a bit is being lost.

first single of eminem's new album - meh.

also recently dug up this one:



radiohead's "ok computer" in a reggae style, from the people who brought us "dub side of the moon".  just about any song can be turned into reggae, but it seems like this album was the perfect one for the treatment.  this album is a guilty pleasure of mine.
