why pamper life’s complexity

morning all! its becoming increasingly harder to stay motivated as the days in my current gig continue to dwindle. we have the movers comin on the 31st, and we will be on our way on the first. everythings just about packed up, no thanks to me, mind you. pretty psyced though cause within my first week in nola i am going to be hitting up elf power and the mountain goats.

speaking of the eels, in honour of the re-release/re-packaging of their/his blinking lights and other revelations, a free live ep is being made available for free, here. i really never got into him, but i figured some of you probably dig his stuff.

since i have been in a smiths mood for the past few days, i am stickin with that feeling. here is a collection of peel sessions.

for those interested, you can stream the new marah record here. i havent listened to it yet, but as seeing they have made a few of my favorite records of recent memory, i dont see them disappointing now. unless of course they go down the float away… alley - that record truly is a piece of shit. btw, angels of destruction out today. they play at smiths olde bar on 1.31.08.

here are two sets of peel sessions by captain beefheart. i only recently got into his work, after years of being told i should. thus far i have only gotten safe as milk and trout mask replica, but hopefully will move forward. anyone got any other recommendations?

man, i have felt like complete shit the past two/three days. i dont know if i have ever mentioned but i fall victim to some pretty bad panic attacks every 6 months or so. i cant do anything but sleep for those days, which is pretty awesome. not knowing what triggers them, is even doubly awesome. needless to say, i just scarf down the ativan and hope for the best. anyone else go through this shit?

tomorrow evening at the earl is david yow and qui. well, they are not two separate acts, david yow is now in the los angeles based qui. just to clear things up. their new record, love’s miracle, is not a huge departure from the lizard. its not as frantic but the music is as methodical and cold.
