Wilderness |

so i saw the transformers and it is glorious. it was everything i hoped and wished it could be. sure the acting was pretty lame, but this is not my left foot were talking bout here its the transformers. i loved that it took no more than 3 minutes before shit started blowing up and it didnt really let up until the ending credits rolled. besides the fact that i have been waiting for this to help me relive my youth for some time, i can say i havent see a better summer blockbuster in a very long time. i hear live free or die hard is pretty bad ass too - which i definitely need to see.

my listening habits are random at best, sometimes. i assume i am not the only though. lately i have found myself listening to to a whole bunch of jagjaguwar releases but most notably wilderness’ first record and the besnard lakes’ are the dark horse. actually there is nothing particularly random about those two records, but i dont remember when i started re-listening to the wilderness record, at least. usually there is some logical progression that one will follow when gravitating towards a particular record, or at least i would think so. in regards to the besnard lakes record, well i have been listening to that all year and its fantastic.
