worst band name in history, or at least pretty damn close. kiss the anus of a black cat hail which from gent, belguim is the brain child of stef heeren. i am hoping that the name is derived from some regional inside joke. oddly enough their name aptly fits the music. its an interesting blend of arcade fire style emotional outcries, and an even more apocalyptic version of david eugene edwards work with woven hand. their new record an interlude to the outermost was released a couple of weeks ago and i am unsure if its available anywhere but i am sure you can purchase it directly through his site.

ok, this whole working overnights thing is getting old and its only been like 3 days. i actually dont mind going in at that time, but sleeping from 7 am to whenever pm is kinda weird and disorientating. i really dont like having to be up for a shit load of hours and then having to work. i like being half asleep in the morning and then going to work cause at least i get to wake up over the course of the day - even though it takes me until about lunch time to do so. luckily its only for a couple more weeks.
before meeting my wife, i had a utter disdain for david bowie. i am not to sure where this severe indifference came from but he bugged the hell out of me for no apparent reason. sadly, this is quite typical with me. anyway, my lady over the course of about a year somehow got me to appreciate bowie. maybe it was the nonstop playing of ziggy stardust, alladin sane and/or station to station that won me over or i was just too lazy to fight it any longer, i dont know. admittedly, those are the only bowie records i really dig on a whole, but hey his catalogue is much to vast to dig that much deeper. yes, i am lazy too.

buy bowie stuff on 
what a “not want to do anything” day this has been. the boy has been ill the past couple of days and literally has not left the couch all day today. therefore, we are wallowing in his laziness and catching up on some of our own. one downside to his current condition is that we have watched the sponge bob movie a few of times, as well as the curious george movie - which was mildly entertaining. i believe he may have some mild form of obsessive compulsive behaviour, which i can probably chaulk up to bad parenting.
have you guys checked out chicagoan david vandervelde as of yet? he’s definitely got a t rex, bowie and 70’s glam vibe going on. typically this kind of style is not my thing but he doesnt kiss too much influence ass to make it way over the fucking top. its the direction i wish dan bejar and destroyer would have taken after i first heard streethawk. david’s got a new record the moonstation house band comin out at the end of the month.
