It's February 20th already? That sucks.
Anyway, here's a new section for all you loyal readers, "What is Jon Listening To". (See what I did there? I just created this blog today, no one has read it yet, and I'm acting like it's an already established blog that has millions of readers and people actually care. I do that to make myself feel relevant).
This section will provide you, the reading public, insight into my current musical tastes.
I like music. I hope you do too.
Here's what I'm listening to on February 20th, 2008. (It's 2008 already? That sucks.)
The Mountain Goats - Heretic Pride
What a good record. I've enjoyed The Mountain Goats and John Darnielle's pretty sparse, lo-fi arrangements in the past. He's a fantastic songwriter and this record "rocks" a bit more than the most of the previous and that's fine by me, since I too rock on occasion. The first four songs on this record are enough to last me until 2009.
Ham Sandwich - Carry the Meek
This band is from Ireland, and that's pretty cool. Also, I enjoy ham sandwiches. This record is really pretty amazing. If you like male-female dual vocals, distorted awesome guitars, songs that build to sweeping crescendos and good music, then you'll like this record. ALSO, they guy's name is Podge and the girl's name is Niamh (which I don't even know how to pronounce!)! Or it's the other way around! I don't even care! It's just awesome!
Weezer - Green Album
Yes, I know it's 2008 and not 2001, but I forgot how good of an album this is. I'm not even sure I realized how good it was when it was first released. I was such a huge fan of Pinkerton that anything that wasn't that record was a let down. But now, after some time (7 years already? That sucks) I'm able to realize that this is a really really really good record.
That's it for now. Go listen to some music. It's better than working.
