Listening to: Sleater-Kinney

And I was told there would be a hit out on me.

Recently Acquired Shit:

CD:

1) Quasi - "When the going gets dark" The first forty seconds is the premis of the entire album. Metaphors take form through electric eels, popeye the sailor man, and rhino's. Standout tracks are: "I don't know you anymore," "Presto change o," "Poverty Sucks," "Merry X-mas," and "Invisible Star." "Merry X-mas," opens with a strong drum beat mellowing out at one minute forty seconds to a slight blending influence of The Beatles and Elliott Smith . Some songs on this album did absolutely nothing for me, yet these stand out tunes won me over. Not the album of the year in my book, but a good pick up.

-Party at 5, if your in the area stop by. Cheetos, pretzels, carrots with ranch dip, cheese and crackers, homemade outmeal snicker bar cookies will be provided. Oh, yeah and 58 cans of beer.
