| As you've noticed, I haven't had much to say here lately. Believe me, my head's still all filled up with crap that I like talking about, but I've been a bit more conservative about dishing it out on you. | |||||

| Half Man, Half Biscuit | The Trumpton Riots | The Trumpton Riots EP | Most people I know and hold in any sort of musical regard used to tape songs off the radio when they were kids and would later whittle the songs they liked best down onto more efficient compilation tapes. Whether you grew up being into Krautrock or the J. Geils Band is irrelevant -- I like both about equally well, especially Faust IV and "Rage in the Cage" -- but Half Man, Half Biscuit was on one of my cherished comp tapes made of songs taped off college radio (WPRB, WRSU, and WTSR mostly) in the mid 80s and for that they retain a special place in my heart. Kinda sounds like the Fall, dontcha think? | 0:09:11 Pop-up) | |
| Jack Oblivion | Hustler | American Slang | Jack was obviously the creepy member of the Oblivions... The one you wouldn't let hang out alone with your kid-sister. Vicki was listening online when I played this and she emailed me and claimed that he was actually saying "Pasta" and not "Hustler" and I tend to agree with her. About everything. | 0:12:21 Pop-up) | |

| Mars Ill | Next Door | Backbreakanomics | I loved, loved, loved their "Blue Collar Sessions" EP, but initially this album left me a little cold. 3 months down the road, I've had it on repeat in my CD deck at home for 2 weeks straight. | 0:26:14 Pop-up) | |
| The Pixies | La La Love You | Doolittle | Erroneously announced as "No. 13 Baby." Whoops. | 0:30:13 Pop-up) | |
| The Cheepskates | Run Better Run | Run Better Run | This is a really great song. And I hate a good deal of squirmy pop music, which I would categorize this as, but really, this song is just perfect. | 0:42:23 Pop-up) | |
| Celibate Rifles | Sometimes | The Turgid Miasma of Existence | If Radio Birdman can reunite and tour the States in 2004, can't they bring the Rifles along as the opening act AND DO THE WORLD SOME GODDAM JUSTICE FOR A CHANGE??? | 0:44:54 Pop-up) | |

| Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments | Cheater's Heaven | Bait & Switch | For all my Ohio people. Rory, Jamie, and Kurt. Pardon me for crashing your reunion but I'm at least a cowpunker in spirit. Oh, Karen too. And Jovan. And Lou, who has a kickass archive under his belt with more on deck in the coming weeks. In fact, this show pretty much sucked -- you should go listen to Lou's archive right now. | 0:53:30 Pop-up) | |

| Eddie and the Subtitles | American Society | Bloodstains across California | This song later (rather badly) covered by L7. And that's not me being a snob, I actually liked L7 a lot, especially the song "Pretend We're Dead" which I thought was one of the best pop songs of the 90s. But really, it was a pretty lousy cover. I think I, like most people my age, may have had a crush on Jennifer Finch when I was 22, but now I don't remember so good. I have a funny story about L7 that I will tell you sometime if you ask me nicely. | 1:23:25 Pop-up) | |
