Today is a day for post-rock*. Specifically, Mogwai, and even more specifically, the albums Mr Beast**; Happy Songs for Happy People; Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will; and Young Team. Mr Beast is by far my favourite album of theirs. Best tracks off each album (in my opinion of course):

Mr Beast - Tie between We're No Here and Glasgow Mega-Snake
Young Team - Mogwai Fear Satan
Happy Songs for Happy People - I Know You Are But What Am I?
Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will - Haven't really listened to it enough to get clear favourites yet, but currently probably a three way tie between You're Lionel Richie, San Pedro and Too Raging to Cheers

* Yes, I am aware that it's a wanky name for the genre, and that Mogwai also dislike it, but it's one of the simplest ways to describe it to people. I used to say instrumental rock, and people assumed I was talking about extended glam rock solos and so on. I love the genre for the contrasting sounds (quiet to loud, harmonious to discord and so on), and the experimentation bands tend to embrace with their style. Another post-rock band also work checking out is God Speed You! Black Emperor.

** I love that they have a sense of humour about their naming. Mr Beast is named that because they got into an airport and saw a driver waiting for his passenger just holding up a sign with the name Mr Beast on it. You're Lionel Richie is a song title because one of them bumped into Lionel Richie and that was all he could think of to say. Glasgow Mega-Snake was their suggestion for an attraction to help bring more tourists to Glasgow. Hell, even Mogwai name wasn't meant to be their real name, they were using it as a place holder (and yes, it's a Gremlins reference) and by the time they got around to trying to think of anything else, it had stuck.

EDIT: Woops, I was wrong, the one I had was Come On Die Young

I had that one back in the day, don't think I ever heard any of the others.

I also had a track of theirs on a Matador compilation that I distinctly remember listening to, oh, a decade ago, one night, on headphones, while lying in bed [bubble bubble bubble-d]. It scared the shiznit out of me.


The random eclectic music on my phone. Everything from Selena Gomez to Enya. Pretty much anything but country, heavy metal and rap.

Cosmic Slop which just might be the greatest album evah.

The whole thing is awesome, but the I can't listen to the title track without at least sniffling.

Even this live rendition performed by a man in a diaper made me choke up.

Another live rendition which includes footage of a 20-foot skull smoking chiba


Metalcore/Hardcore/Post-Hardcore Friday!

Bring Me The Horizon - Sleepwalking (Words can't describe how much I love this song)
Trivium - Down From The Sky (Along with In Waves and Ascendancy, one of my favourite Trivium songs. Comrade Anklebiter will probably like this one, for the lyrics/themes if not the music itself)
Evergreen Terrace - Dead Horses (Awesome song. So much energy)
Pretty much all of Atreyu's first three albums (Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses; The Curse; and A Death-Grip On Yesterday) - Good example songs are Ain't Love Grand; Our Sick Story Thus Far; Ex's & Oh's; Bleeding Mascara; and Five Vicodin Chased With A Shot Of Clarity... I'd forgotten how much I love these guys. Funny how stuff just falls off of regular rotation in the playlists sometimes and you never know why.

Other bands I'm listening today include Killswitch Engage, Heaven Shall Burn, As I Lay Dying, and In Hearts Wake.


Funk for Friday!

I hope that letter is real. Of, course, lying doesnt count at the library, well not at my library. If a punk kid came in and asked for Dead Kennedys, Id GLADLY give them those cds (plus some Agnostic Front, Bad Brains, and Bad Religion too).

California Uber Alles!

She gave back the Def Lep shirt?!?! Goddammit! I know that pain. Actually, Ive had that happen (Though it was an Ozzy shirt)...it kinda ruins the band for a while too. What can you do? The heart wants to be with another sometimes.

I do remember the Rejects song, though I didnt remember the video. Pretty cool. I was going to do a tie-in with my high school years through DefLep, but Pyromania was out when I was in 8th grade and Hysteria didnt come out until I was in college...I mean, they were a BIG band around my little podunk town. Seems like EVERYONE was issued Pyromania on cassette as they turned 14, and the band played the closest big town (Springfield) sometime during my high school years and the next day all the cool kids were wearing that Union Jack shirt. Setlist.fm doesnt have it listed though. hm.

So, I will list this one with Patricia Arquette as my flash to my high school years. I remember getting to play this song at our church youth group. Saying 'because Don is wearing a cross and in the video's story, they defeat Freddy... this makes them warriors for Christ.' (Satanic music and backmasking used to be a big argument Id have with the parental units in the day)

Watching this again, the part where George busts through the wall to shred on the guitar he called Mr Scary for 30 seconds is one of the coolest images from that time for me!

It would wither be that one or the March of the Swivelheads.


Heh, with my dad working as a record store clerk back in the years around 1980, I suspect the only way I'd have been able to rebel by music choices would be if I'd turned into a Neil Diamond fan.

Or listened to a bunch of "Dansband" music.

That was ritually averted when I got to play on the guitar of the lead-guitarist of the Troggs back when I was three, though. Phew!

Although I'll admit to not actually remembering this happening, seeing as I was only three.


Stick and Poke - "Poison"
Bridge Under Fire - "Clayton's Song"
Brand New - "At The Bottom"
Rollins Band - "Gun In Mouth Blues"
Gin Blossoms - "29"


Due to events over in the Kirthfinder PbP thread it is necessary for me to link OutKast.

My main bands when I was a teen were Ozric Tentacles and Spiritualized. Kind of gone off the Ozrics now. Never really seems to go anywhere.

EDIT: There are some decent Neil Diamond tracks, too...

I saw them play in a church in Kingston, NY last October. They seemed like they were really high.

The skies are burning with thunder,
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set a course to Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names...

and:

The snow fell hard on a frozen sea,
As the sun rose to the sky
Trapped forever in the sea of ice,
This is the place where we will die
Far beyond the ice and snow,
The voyage carries on
For blood and gold
We sold our souls
Redemption lies at magnetic north

On a more light hearted note:

We are here to drink your beer
And steal your rum at the point of a gun
Your alcohol, to us will fall
Cause we are here to drink your beer!

Must admit I can't join the dots on that one, unless something Went On with a girl called Rosie and some pork by products :P Or perhaps she just gave you electric shocks.

Psiglo II

Senior semi-formal, Jessica Mocle, parking lot, foggy windows, Neil Diamond. Need I say more?


And, yes, she gave me all kindsa shocks.

I'd favorite the Psiglo because the first five minutes were pretty cool, but now the internet's acting up and I can't hear anymore.

:(


Was googling a bit about Spaceman 3/Spiritualized and was synergistically weirdiosed out to discover that the original bootleg of Taking Drugs was released on a label called Father Yod Records!

(I'm assuming that's just an awesome name for a hipster label, but you never know...)

Common Shiner - Social Mediasochist Slasher fun!

Saw Clutch live the other night. They debuted 2 new songs from their forthcoming record, one called "The Lady of Electric Lights". A guy next to me somehow avoided detection while taping it with his phone. Got pretty much the entire song. Hope he uploads it to youtube soon, he said he would. Its a slower groove song and a nice changeup from Mob Goes Wild or Earth Rocker. I got caught up in the pit during the other new one and couldnt make out the title but it was a fastpaced tune!


Today's album is Sempiternal by Bring Me The Horizon

Their previous albums were okay, but man this one is amazing. Start to finish, whole thing is fantastic. It's rare that I don't skip any tracks, but I've had it on repeat since last night and I'm still loving it.

Highlights are:

Warning - I'm not sure if these clips are of censored versions or not, may have some profanity

The House of Wolves
Sleepwalking
And The Snakes Start To Sing
Go To Hell, For Heaven's Sake
Crooked Young

Favourite lyrics from the album:

Sleepwalking -

Your eyes are swallowing me
Mirrors start to whisper
Shadows start to sing
My skin's smothering me
Help me find a way to breathe

Time stood still
The way it did before
It's like I'm sleepwalking
Fell into another hole again
It's like I'm sleepwalking

I'm at the edge of the world
Where do I go from here?
Do I disappear?
Edge of the world
Should I sink or swim?
Or simply disappear?

And The Snakes Start To Sing -

I've lost the plot again
Tell your friends to sharpen their teeth
There's a few quid to be made...

And my soul's a sorry state
So come on down, you're empty lovers.
Worms come out of the woodwork
And the snakes start to sing.

Do you feel the chill,
Clawing at the back of your neck?
I start to spill.
Did you really think that you could fix me?
They'll sell your bones for another roll.
Well sharpen your teeth.
Tell yourself that it's just business.

Worms come out of the woodwork.
Leeches crawl from out of the dirt
Rats come out of the holes they call home,
I fall apart.
And the snakes start to sing.

Those last lyrics in particular really grab me for some reason...

Oh man I love Clutch. Was so happy I got to see them at Soundwave this year. Unfortunately Filter were on before them, and while I like Filter, I have a low tolerance for bands taking up more time than their slot allows at festivals... Particularly when the singer knows exactly what he is doing and is trying to play the crowd, telling them that the band will do two encore songs if they make enough noise and prove they're better fans than Clutch's crowd. Was pretty funny to see the rest of the band just bail on him in the middle of that crap. He turned around to start the song and they were just gone. He left quickly after that.

Clutch were, as expected, awesome.

I feel like writing out some lyrics, too.

Looking like a born again
Living like a heretic
Listening to Arthur Lee records
Making all your friends feel so guilty
About their cynicism
And the rest of their generation
Not even the government, are gonna stop you now
But are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to be heartbroken?

I'm topped full of vitamins
On account of all the seriousness
You say you're so happy now
You can hardly stand
Lean over on the bookcase
If you really want to get straight
Read Norman Mailer
Or get a new tailor
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to bleed?

What would it take
What would it take to wipe that smile off of your face?
Are you ready to be, are you ready to bleed?

Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to bleed? (heartbroken)
Well you better get ready now baby
Are you ready to bleed? , ready to bleed?

Not being Britishiznoid, I've never heard this version

Forty minutes of the Commotions from '86


"A minstrel's music" a collection of music from the late mediaeval period and on.

Oddly enough, I always thought of Arthur Lee records as pretty cynical. But I don't think I ever delved into his solo catalog.

Perennial favorite:

There's a Riot Goin' On


New Lenny Kravitz

The Chamber.

I hadnt heard anything from this guy in a while. I like the new record "Strut", mostly. Its definitely disco-tinged, theres some sensual tunes on there. Thumbs up!

I dunno - there was a lot of neat stuff there, IMO...

Another version of 'Solitary Man', by the Deep Six

And Bloodstone - Riddle of the Sphinx. Was expecting it to be all Afro-Futurist spacey stuff. It isn't, but it's still pretty good. Only soul concept album I've ever come across, though I don't doubt that more exist.


"All those who [?????] entitle themselves and whose main entitle is themselves, shall feel the wrath of MY BOMBAST!"

I was reading on the internet that they swapped out a track to make way for "Cruisers Creek" on non-Britishiznoid pressings

Made a comment in front of Omar the Former Arab Terrorist and he said "Man, why do they f+!@ing do that. [Does imitation of posh Britishiznoid record executive] "Hmmm, what would make The Fall more palatable for an American audience?"
