Wow. It's been ages since my last journal. I have lots of excuses for this, including birthdays, weddings and workload, but I wasn't expecting to leave a whole months gap...

Anyway, I thought I'd introduce you to a song I've fallen in love with. Beautiful track, and decent lyrics, City Noise by Scarling.. The video for it is quite simple, minimalist even, but I think it fits the song perfectly..

Here's the video.




Another crowded dance floor
another empty glass
another failed hello
it's your alibi
another splendid lie
it's the bruises that you can't show

It's another lonely sunset
another starless sky
the nervousness inside
it's the final kiss from a lover's fist
it's the reason why you can't cry

It's a violent reaction
the mixtape in your heart
the answer you should know
how we complicate, a simple mistake
it's the face you make when I go

And we tried to change
the city noise made us strange
so we plugged our ears and learned to fight
we set the stage but we could not engage so we cut all ties by candlelight

Another deep depression
the calm before the storm
the shaking in your head
how you sacrificed - how you paid the price
all the words you wish you had said

It's the rawest of emotions
drinking to forget - names written in the snow
it's the anxious feel - purging your last meal
it's the secret that you can't know

And we tried to change
the city noise made us strange
so we plugged our ears and learned to fight
we set the stage but we could not engage so we cut all ties by candlelight


I also stumbled across this track by Autolux, turnstyle blues.

Believe it or not this was linked to under "Stuff we like" on the Nine Inch Nails home page on YouTube..



Hope you enjoyed this.

last.fm has enabled me to reach a whole new level of nerdery by giving me means to list every single band/artist/DJ ive seen in my life. some of which sadly don't have pages and are no longer together so i can't make them one by adding them to a lineup, thus putting them on this site. that makes baby jesus cry. or at least makes me sad in my heart until the carnival music in my head kicks in and i move on to other, more shiny and pretty things.

some of these bands i've listed simply for the fact that i did see them, even if it was accidentally. wheather or not they were opening for someone else and i banged my head against the wall until their set was over or i lost consciousness. (that's where the nerd thing comes in and i feel it necessary to list completely if i'm going to list at all.) they're also pretty much in no particular order. like the fact that tonight i remembered that i went to Ozzfest in 2000. or was it '01? and listed the bands i remember being there 7 years after the fact. and yes, i did purposefully see Rusted Root tonight for FREE! at that Live on the Levee thing they do in the summer in St. Louis. fuck you, i was raised by hippies and it was actually one of the best people watching experiences i've had in a while. drunken "hippies" in crisp, clean grateful dead shirts flinging their children and Budweiser bottles around wildly to no particular rhythm i could match it with. E-tards hugging strangers and dancing around like pricks. there were a few actual dirty, dread locked hippies but it was mainly yuppie potheads and old professor types. it was great, though. nothing like a free show. i honestly didnt know they were still a band till Amy G. invited me to go see them with her and Kristen.

moving on, of course i'm going to list all the bands to date.

Queens of the Stone Age
Ozzy Osbourne
