me and the Wu Tang Clan are having a highschool Reunion today. it's all GZA Liquid Swords and Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) today. so yeah...the blogging is gonna suffer. besides i said i'd give it up for Lent...or not.
it should also be noted that Atlanta's favorite sons the Black Lips have unleashed their newest album 200 Million Thousand today. i've been alternating between it and the Wu-Tang clan all morning in an attempt to write some kind of music review about how the Lips have taken the Wu Tangs place as my favorite grimy punks of all time...but yeah it ain't happening. my writing and reasoning skills aren't what they used to be. all that said, if you are a fan of the Rock and/or Roll then the Lips' newest offer is the earlier leader for best album of 2009. and with songs like "Drugs", "I Saw God", and "Big Black Jesus Of Today" how could it not be the album of the year?

i'll have to grab that one. fancy a burn for a friend?
i finally got around to getting the new[ish] deerhunter. it's pretty strong.
btw, triumph was among my favorite high school cuts.
yeah i can burn you the new Lips for sure. which Deerhunter record? Microcastle or Weird Era? i think both of them are pretty good, Microcastle def is one of the better indie pop-ish records i've heard in a good long while. it reminds me of why i used to love the genre.
my favorite track off Wu Tang Forever was either the ODB song "Dogshit" or Method Man's "Visionz". that record has always left a sour taste in my mouth because i saw the Wu open for Rage Against The Machine @ Lakewood and it ranks as THE WORST live performance i have ever seen in my entire life. 20 mins of pure bullshit and chaos with a screaming 5 year old on the mic. sooooo fucking terrible.
