time for heroes - the libertines

counting crows & colorblind

My Beautiful by Lennon

It's the way the tension slowly builds throughout the story until the big showdown when you finally learn the significance of Bronson's harmonica. A Hollywood director wouldn't be allowed to get away with it (wouldn't have the artistic vision either). You should try to see America. I think you'd love it.

Coalesce - 'What Happens On the Road Always Comes Home'

Foundations - 'Build Me Up Buttercup'

Cygnus X-1 - Rush

Neurosis - The Eye Of Every Storm.

Album of the year? I think so.

First time i've listened to Happy/Sad (Tim Buckley) in about 18 months. Just remembered i had it so ive put it on my Jukebox-mi-bob.

Just started - Strange Feelin' - and boy isn't it fabulous?

Amazing what you find.

Nu-metal by numbers, I won't be bored of it for at least 10 more minutes...

Papa Roach - Getting Away With Murder

Charlotte Hatherley - Paragon.

The Sound Of... - Butler & McAlmont

New Gold Dream - Simple Minds. A reminder that they were actually really good before they started peddling torpid stadium AOR.

Static-X - "Shadowzone". Don't ask me why, I just dug it up this morning.

Stroke 9 - Washin' + Wonderin'

I listened to a lovely unabridged Romeo & Juliet radio adaptation with Richard out of Keeping Up Appearances as Friar Lawrence and the chorus. I love unabridged, it means I can view the whole thing as it was intended - as a play - while reading along and falling in love with all that wonderful language.

And it was really a very good job, poor Juliet heartbreakingly desperate after being left alone, one way or another, by her husband, cousin, mother, father, even Nurse. That was all too moving.

Anyway, that lasted 3 hours plus.

listening to Grace now.

Muddy Waters - Muddy 'Mississippi' Waters Live

Mannish Boy

This must be as good as it gets. O what a wonderful world!
