Math: I came, I saw, I conquered.
A place for music and movies, be it indie or major label. Or chances are...we'll just discuss random crap. We'll see...
Man, I can tell you’re loopy today. I’ve got a math test tonight so I’m more “grim detest” then loopy.
Woo woooo!
Oh, and if you’re gonna see movies this weekend, and you can only see one, see Intolerable Cruelty. I saw School of Rock, and it was funny, but I think any film by the Coen brothers (I hope I spelt that right) is a sure bet.
I’m sorry about the title on Wednesday’s post. It seemed funny at the time, but it really isn’t.
Likewise, I’ll keep the DJ’s outta my posts.
Get rich quick? “It’s never gonna be about the money man, that’s not even the point.”
Also, the butt whistle thing was already taken by Saturday Night Live. It was a device that turned flatulence into lively speech, or something like that.
I'm not into the DJs too much but I won't talk about it.
This weekend I would like to see Intolerable Cruelty and/or School of Rock. Hopefully I end up seeing both.
I'm trying to think of "get rich schemes." How about a butt whistle? You insert, and it whistles when you pass gas! You know, like Woo-woo! It'd be comfortable. I promise.
I listened to Looses Control in Gabe’s car tonight, and I liked it at first glance. Of course, I can’t pass judgment until I pick it up and carefully dissect it myself, but it sounds good. Sort of like a whole rock anthem to loosing control…
I think I’m also going to try and look into Grandaddy’s album, Sumday. I didn’t hear too much of their stuff in the past, but I saw them perform on an old Conan (on Comedy Central) the other day and I really liked it. Mellow but catchy… Ah yes, and I also have Kid Koala’s new dealy reserved, and I need to pick it up. I hope that’s good; it seemed unique when I heard samples of it.
Sadly, that’s all I can say for today. You know life has toned down a notch when I’m posting my laundry list of “albums to purchase”.
Check out the wire though (click the link on your right -->) because Todd Bell posted a cool interview from another website. It really gives you the mentality of their band and how they work.
I have now listened to Loses Control a few times over. I would not say that it's "poppier" than Everynight Fireworks. Brock is right in that Hey Mercedes started out fairly poppy and the newest album is no poppier than the first. It is a bit different, though. I'm thinking I will like it a lot.
The Fire Theft album has grown considerably on me. I love it!
Gahhh! Looses Control, I’ve lost control. Your crunchy rock goodness has conquered my ears! Actually, I haven’t bought it yet. Chances are, I won’t get a chance to get it until this weekend. Busy? Yes, oh yes. However, I should note that from the songs I heard in concert, and the songs made available for download online, it sounds like a very promising album.
Moreover, fans should keep in mind that Hey Mercedes has always been from the start, a much poppier band then Nanna’s usual fare. But we’ll see. I also have to get tickets to Modest Mouse’s concert here in our fair city. Oh, and now Marco wants some Modest Mouse tickets? Well fine!
Heh heh…no, seriously, ok.
Will Loses Control be a smart, innovative, in-your-face album for Hey Mercedes or just another pop-punk CD? Some of their fans who've heard the album already think it's more on the structured poppy side than ENFW. We'll see.
Go to Second Nature Records and pre-order yourselves a sick-ass skate deck, featuring artwork from The Casket Lottery's album Survival is for Cowards!!
Also coming out tomorrow...
I've never seen Raising Arizona. I think I might have seen bits and pieces of it, but never the whole film. I should get the script for it and then turn it in as my mid-term exam for screenwriting class.
"Dude, your script is about Arizona. Awesome!"
I saw Raising Arizona for the first time in it's entirety yesterday. I've always seen parts here and there. It came on IFC. Great movie.
Loses Control out tomorrow! Hoo-ahhh!
