the other day i received a package from ace fu records, containing a number of cds from the ol' roster & they've surreptiously become the soundtrack to my 05 birthday weekend. received:
acid mother's temple & the cosmic inferno - iao chant: i put in the cd. i'm all like, "one song? 54 minutes?" what the fuck is that? it's good shit, maynard. chillin to it right now, in fact. it makes me picture a cooler, pissed off grateful dead without all the noodly crap.
an albatross - i am the lazer viking: this is the band that i've never got to see live, despite their multiple dates with the fugue, including multiple dates where i was at the show before an albatross went on, saw other bands, and then left, like a sucka. i ILLEGALLY DOWNLOADED this album a year or so ago & deleted it the same day. we didn't jive whatsoever. oh, what a year of jadedness does to musical tastes. now, i love the shit out of this album & to mimic critics--"...my only problem with this album is that under 10 minutes long, i have to keep hitting repeat! (ha ha hilarious! i'm a lazy fuck!)" if you don't have the time it takes to listen to this album in its entirety, then you the sucka, bitch. i watched friends with you for a whole half hour a million times.
aqui - the first trip out: apparently, these peeps aren't a band no more. too bad.
bonk - western soul: the dudes on the front cover look like they're either crying or more coked than anyone i've known personally, which makes me think of vice, which makes me hate the world, but at least the album doesn't suck like vice. probably the 2nd most rocking of the bunch.
man man - the man in a blue turban with a face: not feeling the album yet, but feeling that it's probably much sweeter live.
michael leviton - my favorite place to drown: ukelele. coming soon.
tungg - mother's daughters & other songs: this is my favorite of the bunch. i liked kings of convenience at some point & then saw ereland oyes (from k.o.c.) do his electronic stuff as an opener & this album sort of brings that shit together in a way that's actually good. it made a sweet soundtrack whilst walking along the bottom of the prospect park parade grounds & worked equally as well as i waited for the g at fulton st later in the night. it's not out yet, so i won't say more, but it's eventually worth checking out. i'll be strolling to it til then, bitches.
