Music Shit / Re: A perfect song.

i agree there are a lot of seemingly perfect Love songs. "Gazing" and "Can't Explain" are the first that come to mind. Big Star-September Gurls is pretty much the embodiement of a perfect song to me though, i could listen to it a thousand times in a row and not get bored of it.

i like tyvek a lot too, but i think they're just a tad bit over rated. i've seen em live once, they were a lot of fun, but best band in the world right now? really? i could think of quite a few, including physcadelic horseshit, who i've never seen live, that i like a lot more. there certainly good though, and i will continue buying there records, just never got why so many people lose their shit over them, but to each his own.

listening to the new lamps lp i picked up yesterday and its sounding pretty damn good. also picked up the new church police 7in. skulltones just put out. has anybody else seen this? 3 unreleased tracks from 1982 and there all killer. totally random but great because "the oven is my friend" was always one of my favorite songs from not so quiet on the western front and i always wished this band would have realsed more, just had no idea this record was in the works.

yep, same bread machine and they've only gotten better since. coincidentally, the venue this show is at is in the same building as jeff the pigeon, but in the front on the first floor instead of in the basement. you should come if you live close by, all the bands scheduled might even play this time...

Upcoming Shows/Tours/Events / Re: DRY ROT US TOUR

« on: August 01, 2007, 09:32:54 PM »

dry-rot continue to blow my mind. played tonight in allentown with under pressure who were defently one of the best bands i've seen all summer. fucking great. then dry rot plays, the humidity in the space is so bad the ceiling's dripping, their drummer apparently through up in his mouth during there set cause it was so hot, and they just go off on every song totally sloppy and not caring at all, picking up doors, juming into pile's of trash, etc. they end with bleached, at which time the guitarist opens a bottle of bleach and heaves it onto the floor and the singers back...he's already going nuts but then the bleach starts burning through his pants and on his skin and he runs out of the room and into the bathroom to wash it off, a couple people get it in their eyes but their fine, and i go home liking this band even more.

« on: July 11, 2007, 09:28:02 AM »

i've been in love with this band since hearing that first 7 in. months ago. defintely an intriguing band, but i honestly think there just weird guys who like all kinds of fucked up music and play whatever they feel like. thought the christian thing was a joke for a while, but i guess its not, oh well. i'm really excited to see what theyre live show will be like when they play philly.
