Yeah, I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking 'bout snowy chilly grey somber Christmas. It's 34ºC/93ºF here, you degenerates!

Dave Van Ronk's rendition of Both Sides Now. Absolutely sublime

Wrong choice to listen to this while on a train. First song is titled Better Go Home Now...

was never a huge fan of the beach boys, so missed on the hype of this release, but i could not sleep the other night and put the smile sessions on the headphones...

relistening this morning, awake. that is some seriously lunatic shit! and i mean it in the best possible sense. i was so surprised. very enjoyable.

MGMT - In The Afternoon

This single-release almost passed without notice. I already appreciated last year's album "Little Dark Age" a lot, which in my opinion was an extensive 80s-homage done right. It had just the right amount of gothy, wavy and post-punky touches and vibes, but melded them with engaging pop-sensibilities. "In The Afternoon" now seems like a welcome addendum to the path they have layed with their previous LP. It very much has a lot of the dark, post-punky vibes sprinkled in throughout LDA, but decidedly goes for a more sincere and psychedelic approach as opposed to the cheeky synthpop-vibes that were evident on that album. It's one of those sweet companion-pieces I didn't know I needed, but now I'm glad they're there. Kind of makes me think of the first time I heard the Cure B-side "Harold And Joe" - which essentially sounds much like a Disintegration-outtake - and I mean that in a very positive way.

Without notice? Man you don’t use twitter I take it.

I’ve done a twitter experiment this year. It’s been ... 99% toxic, 1% learning about music almost as soon as it comes out.

Yeah, I'm grandpa Ben when it comes to that sorta thing. Should've written "without my notice". Instagram has finally caught up with me, but twitter I have successfully avoided so far.

Good for you, it’s eaten a chunk of my soul.
Instagram I haven’t done really, but only because I never do anything other than work. What am I gonna take pictures of? Me working? Go viral! Nah.

Pretty useful for my torrent announcement shenanigans, though (not that I have an account or anything).

Also, none of ya have said peep about the last three AWESOME albums I have posted pictures of on this thread, and that's why you will die horrible deaths.
