Going back to some of my current favorite artists (this really started on Friday with Zappa and Captain Beefheart). Yesterday was: Meet the Residents - The Residents Atlantis - Sun Ra First Issue - Public Image Ltd.
Return of the Super Ape - Lee "Scratch" Perry Liars - Liars Mule Variations - Tom Waits This Is Our Music - Ornette Coleman
I've been listening to her the past few days, and I had to go find out what she was actually singing about. I originally was going to make a crack about Anne Hathaway, but apparently she covers that ground in an earlier song (Pourvu qu'elles soient douces)... L´amour N´est Rien: Obsessed with the worst And not very verbose The least of my sighs Turn metaphysical I have in my heaven Tons of stars Hanging on my wings And down falls the angel Gabriel Obsessed with the worst A little too physical The desire to quiver Is pharaonic Fed up with asceticism My life is wrapped in darkness For me without the tongue Wihtout sex I get weak Love is nothing When it's politically correct You like one another You don't even know when you hurt them Love is nothing When everything is sexually correct You get bored You yell for it to stop Life is nothing When it's lukewarm It consumes itself and shakes your blood In cigarette ashes Life is good It's made of honey When it's acid with dynamite Those who love me, follow me Obsessed with the worst And not very verbose The least of my sighs Turn metaphysical I have in my head Tons of pirouettes The leap of the angel Doesn't seem strange to me Obsessed with the worst And not very verbose To share my laughs Rather plutonic I have in my sphere A greenhouse effect My blood's boiling I'm seething about everything
Just got my hands on Balmorhea's upcoming Constellations album. it's one of the best albums I have heard in a very long time.
The-Dream (Love vs. Money) I am surprised by how much I like this. Contemporary R&B is not the typical type of music I go for, but damn!
Man, where did the story-telling in music go? Especially in rap/hip-hop? Little girl once innocent and sweet 14 introduced to the street Started from weed, big smoke outs Before you could exhale, blunt in your mouth Sham, Nay, blew you blew Now you need something else to do A new high to try, a new place to go Introduced to the yay to the yo House full of girls, old and young Playin it the table taking one on ones <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9ToFhp62Dfo&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9ToFhp62Dfo&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FNdromyakuk&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FNdromyakuk&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> And last, but not least, Ras Kass!

Just ran across an unreleased Kid Cudi song that doesn't seem to be on youtube. Anyone might know why? Anyways, here's the link. Kid Cudi - Follow Me | Audio | Rap Basement
Future Days - Can In Rainbows - Radiohead Loveless - My Bloody Valentine The more times I listen to In Rainbows, the more I am amazed by it. It may have just overtaken Kid A as my favorite album by them EVER.

Yeasayer - Odd Blood Massive Attack - Heligoland Doom - Born Like This So far I think I like about half of the new Yeasayer and Massive Attack albums. Odd Blood is a lot more "pop" than I expected. I really like the Hope Sandoval guest appearance on Heligoland. I am also sick of Damon Albarn.
