Ive been feeling very 1991, listening to some Pixies, and Mudhoney.

huzzah for The Pixies! If I listen to The Pixies on a regular basis, does that mean I'm *stuck* in 1991?

mostly Mumford & Sons today. I can't decide whether I really like them, or I like them just cos they sound like other bands I like! Sort of folky blue grassy.

I'm not familiar with their music in general, but I keep hearing this song at a friend's house and I really like it - mainly because of the chorus melody. The song is 'Poem' by Taproot. If you have a listen, wait past the generic beginning.

The Latest by Cheap Trick. I'm not a huge CT fan, but I do like the early stuff, and this one has that vibe. It's the first cd I've liked from them since Lap Of Luxury, and the best one since Dream Police.

Earlier this morning, I was singing Tori's cover of "New Age" by The Velvet Underground.

(I can't find Tori singing, so here's the original, which also rocks)
I can't seem to get her album Strange Little Girls out of my head lately. I suppose it's an ebb and flow. Maybe I need to be really listening again.

I've listened to a number of songs today appropriate for a Saturday night, but since it was alt rock they all seemed to want to beat the piss o/o each other. Well, Sir Elton says: Saturday Night's alright for fighting.... anyway here's my (repeat) take on what a Saturday night should be all about... Small Town, Saturday Night

And for Fist, and others, doing Sam Cooke he was first known as : Cat

For the first time in a couple of years, I've been listening to Adequate Seven's debut EP. While checking up on whether the band is still together, I discovered that I own one of only 1500 copies of this EP. Heh.

Greatest song of 2009! Sex on Fire-Kings of Leon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm re-living my mid-teens today. For some reason this song was in my head last week, but I couldn't even remember the name of the band. Saw it performed on a latenight tv show (anyone remember Clive James?), bought the single next day (yes, vinyl), played it to death for years but never knew anything about the band (no tinternet in those days). Was up in my attic a couple of days ago and looked through the old vinyl, got the name, looked on Amazon and found a 'best of' for £1.24!!!! Arrived today.

Phillip Boa and the Voodoo Club 'Container Love'

I've had a song stuck in my head for a while now. Part of the chorus keeps going round in my head, "Your heart felt good, it was dripping pitch and made of wood, and your hands and knees felt cold and wet on the grass beneath"

Modest Mouse, "Third Planet"

Same as their live shows. Seen them twice. *double yawn* (and I like their cds)

Kings of Leon cd boring? <gasp>. Can't comment on their live show. Now that I'm 50 instead of 20, I think most live shows are boring, off key, etc....but their last album is full of great songs. Too many to name (which means I'm too lazy to go look up all the names of the ones I rate 5 stars). Now their first two albums sucked. But the latest, I think is great.
