To Make up for my laziness in posting:...
I'm gonna post the playlist of my most recent mized CD, with notes that there will be a couple of other ones on the way since I have a couple to make for people...
1)Atom and His Package - Lying To You
2)ONly Crime - Real Enemy
3)The Smiths - What she said
4)Dinosaur Jr. - I'm Insane
5) Dizzee Rascal - Graftin'
6) Modest Mouse - The View
7) Sage Francis - Ground Control
8) The Wrens - This Boy is Exhausted
9) Death From Above 1979 - You're a Woman, I'm a Machine
10) Ornette Coleman - Lonely Woman
11) Leatherface - Watching you Sleep
12) Lawrence Arms - Overheated
13) MIssy Elliot - Hot (Ratatat Remix)
14) Animal Collective - Sweet Road
15) Swinging Utters - Letters to YOurself
16) Black Keys - Set YOu Free
17) Rise Against - Tip The Scales
18) The books - S is for Evrysing
19) Bonnie "Prince" Billy - A Minor PLace
20) Maroons - Lester Hayes
21) Fischerspooner - Emerge (DFA Mix)
22) Loretta Lynn - God Makes No Mistakes.
It's a little crazy all over the place, with little hiphop and a punk leaning. No theme really emerged but some of the titles seem appropriate in retrospect. Haven't listened to yet to see how well paced it is, but it looks ok....

When World's Collide
Verbose music critic attempts a review of grimy-ass, hardcore, crunk music from the streets and comes across like an ass. Worst review ever. Don't get my wrong Crunkjuice ain't a great album by any stretch, but it's just so strange to see it described like this....
My two cents on the album:
-The Rick Rubin track is wicked; an't go wring with Slayer samples.
-Some of the worst mysogenistic lyrics of all time.
-Icecube has fell the fuck off. What happened man? How can I keep pulling for you at movie nights?
- The Ludacris, Usher shit is...well....shit. gah.
Don't waste your money, dowload the singles, and buy a real hiphop record, rather than just a hyped records by a flash in the pan hot producer. (Don't get me wrong, I like Lil Jon's production, but man he needs to learn a few new tricks...don't pull a Neptunes.)

I'm not sure what to make of this...
You are Salad Fingers. You are deeply, deeply
disturbed. You love rusty spoons, and
tetanus-induced hallucinations wherein you talk
to your finger-puppets. You are most certainly
NOT suitable for children, and I would
recommend you get serious help. Also, you taste
like sunshine dust.

Should I be pissed off? Or happy? Don't get me wrong, I love Salad Fingers, but still....
