Saturday’s Song of the Week: The Doors – Love Street


Only because it was on Entourage and is stuck in my head, and I’m not on it. Not a bad song if you want to get your 1968 on.

This Man is a Joke


Have fun, sir

This man is a complete joke. You spend time singing and becoming the 7th inning God Bless America man at Yankee Stadium for so long and then you piss off some Jews, move to Boston and start all over again? This cannot be serious.

In a press conference, Tynan stated “I know you’ve known my record from the other side. But whether you wear pinstripes or red socks, you sing a song about a great country, and that is what it’s really about.”

First of all, it does matter if you wear a sox uniform or pinstripes. Second of all, I’m pretty sure this country is headed to shit.

Keith made a very good point. Tynan started singing God Bless America at Yankee Stadium in 2001. He got “banned” in 2009. What didn’t happen while he was still allowed to sing there? You do the math. Cya!

Black Gives Way to Blue


AIC_FINAL_COVERsmall

When the first single A Looking In View was released and over 7 minutes long, I didn’t know what to think. I wasn’t a complete fan right away, but it grew on me. Check My Brain was released over the summer and I first heard it while in a car driving through the Bronx. “This is more like it,” I thought to myself – maybe this album has some potential.

And now that it’s released and I’ve been listening to it nonstop, I’d like to point out that the album is amazing. Of course, it can’t be compared to earlier works like Facelift and Dirt, but even with a new lead singer, it does an excellent job capturing AIC’s original essence. DuVall and Cantrell have some haunting vocal harmonies that take you back to the 1990s. Acid Bubble is byfar the most melancholy and is comparibale to the song Dirt from the album Dirt. This is an example of true 1990s grunge being released in 2009! Other songs such as Your Decision and When the Sun Rose Again focus more on acoustic guitar work. It’s a great mix. Usually when I get an album, I only like 2-3 songs, but as I listened through, they are all unique in their own way and I can never skip any of them.

The Day That Never Comes

Good Shit


New Metallica Album Looking Good


Metallica’s 9th Studio album has been in the works for a while. Metallica has set up http://missionmetallica.com, which is an in the works preview of some parts of the album. Check out an mp3 I compiled below (which I pretty much ripped off MissionMetallica and shortened) of some new material in the works. I better not get sued, they’re like that…

Anyway, my point is that this is sounding more like Load and Reload, rather than the awful failure of St. Anger in 2003 which was just angry guitar and drum mashing. This actually has some killer riffs and old sounds to it and is awesome. I already have 2 lines of lyrics stuck in my head. It better not disappoint in September. Click play below:
