Super Random Delicious Shuffle Challenge 3
This is my new favorite thing to do when I need a little break at work. I have never really been a big shuffle fan because there always seems to be something I want to listen to but given how one day can bleed into the next day and then the next week around [...]
“Lost in Translation” Soundtrack
Let me begin by saying that I am not intending to slam the movie or the music here but am merely making an observation that stuck me as odd. I was blown away by the movie, “Lost in Translation” and thought that the soundtrack for the movie was so well done that it really [...]
The Wages of Sin - “Jolly Roger”
“Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.” - H.L. Mencken
“Fake Plastic Trees”
I’m going bald. Apparently this is supposed to be a tragedy that should make me want to off myself but for some reason I can’t muster up the pride to be so ashamed. To be honest, I don’t even think about it but a lot of other people seem to feel the need [...]
Best Track under 1 minute and 7 seconds
Cloud Cult - “Its What you Need”

The Flaming Lips Explanations Series
I’m going to assume that since you are reading this that you have more than a passing interest in music. By chance, I ran across a really interesting gem on Rhapsody last night that was like finding a crumpled up $20 bill in an old coat pocket. I own most of the Flaming [...]
Apocalyptica
I’m not a Metalicca fan…. but I used to dig their music until they became a bunch of 80+ year old New Jersey broads bitching about kids running through their yards and pissing on their flowers. Lest I digress further, the reason I got my lazy ass off the couch to blog (for the [...]
Super Random Delicious Shuffle Challenge 2
I enjoyed the ruskie roulette style randomness of the shuffle challenge so here is round two. Please don’t find my Scarlett Johansson tracks. I mean seriously why didn’t she make a sex tape like any other attention craved starlet. Press Play……
Alice in Chains – “Over Now (Unplugged Version)”
Outstanding, I haven’t listened to any [...]
