I posted El Paso a few months back, but here is the follow up song.
The next few weeks I’ll be away in… TEXAS! Yuppers. Here are a few songs to keep you busy until I get back. OK, I’m not leaving until tomorrow, but I want to start this early. This is a great example of a modern day folk ballad (despite it being a pretty rocking tune), and […]
It’s the 80s all over again! But in a good way. Even more retro sounding than usual, but that’s why I love this song so much. I love the New Order-esque break towards the end.
Eternal damnation has never sounded so sexy as it does in Beth Gibbon’s voice.
Ah, Hooky’s “other” side project, the much hated and maligned Revenge. Why people reacted to this band so violently, I’ll never know. This song is really great. Yes, it is a complete rip-off of New Order’s more subdued side, but hundreds of bands have used that sound and nobody ever gives them shit for it.
No, not New Order, but Monaco, Hooky’s side band. Nice video with some super nice fantasy art.
Back in the day (the mid 90s, y’all) I was stuck between fearing, hating and lusting after Riot Grrls.

This is a preview for next month’s musical theme. Songs that will play during my trip to Texas. Wanna guess what it’ll be? 😉
“Get your finger’s out your ass, and pump some faggot’s gas and think about how bad New Hope sucks…. WOOO HOOOO!”
I say this a lot… but DAT BASS! When they weren’t being creepy, obnoxious White Knighters, the Beasties made some pretty good music back in the 90s. And they’re still around making great music, so there!
Man, this album is gonna be great. I say that because I’m pre-dating these a month beforehand. I’m sure I’ll have heard the entire album before this goes live (oh wait… it won’t come out until Tuesday the 24th, cough cough, no, I won’t hear it for another two days, cough cough). I’m loving it. […]
Everybody needs a bit of Jandek in their lives. Even if you find this hard to listen to at first, the more you listen the more used to it you get. The more used to it the more you want to hear.
