This band came back on my radar thanks to shuffle...I love this song.

Also, Interpol will be touring with U2, and while I doubt any chance I'd get to go, there's suspicion they might have a new release this year or be working on something. Would like that, miss them.

Amazing to watch and listen to him put this together.

Love my name
Love left dry
Frost or flame
Skeleton me
Fall asleep
Spin the sky
Skeleton me
Love, don’t cry
Love, don’t cry
Love, don’t cry
Skeleton me
Skeleton me

Soon comes rain
Dry your eyes
Frost or flame
Skeleton me
Fall asleep
Spin the sky
Skeleton me
Love, don’t cry
Love, don’t cry
Love, don’t cry
Skeleton me
Skeleton me

Skeleton me
~Skeletons
Yeah Yeah Yeahs, It's Blitz!

Beautiful song.....some great tones in there, simple and pretty words. I don't think there's any Yeah Yeah Yeahs I don't like, but some songs stand out more to me than others. This is one of them. Also, the video is sick-nasty but I can't find an embed code....see The New York Times for a take on that.

In other news, I'm very sad to say I don't think I'll get to make it to any of the Copeland farewell tour dates. Too much homework, and things to do, blah. But that's a band that, I think, might deserve a reunion someday, if I have to organize and pay for it myself. I can't believe I'll never hear You Are My Sunshine songs live! Sad. Goodbye, favorite band, you will still be one of them.

Still other news, new release from Four Year Strong soon......excellent. Get ready feel like throwing things into walls and smashing electronics on the ground, and all kinds of good stuff, with a snide-ass fucking grin. They can take a minute to warm up to (if you're not crazy about melodic hardcore or whatever you'd like to call it) but the dueling vocals and harmonies are pretty freakin intense, they're so straight up about what they do. New songs here.

Sweeeeeeet.



And this video made me laugh. There is whole Beatles community on YouTube that could keep me here till 3 a.m....so many videos....

Even in February, The Decemberists make great walking-in-winter music.I recently rediscovered this album and have been pretty addicted.



Apparently the song is about a WWII battle, not the French Revolution, but we'll forgive that.

and the war came with a curse and a caterwaul
and the war came with all the poise of a cannonball
and they're picking out our eyes by coals and candlelight
when the war came, the war came hard
