Breaking in speakers I've been working on with some Sigur Ros ( () )and Radiohead (OK Computer).

As for the speakers... they sound quite nice and while not from the most popular company here I like this particular model. Bose 601 series II's with direct/reflecting speaker array circa 1982ish. Speakers were given to me for free, and refoam kit for the woofers was $30.

gaslight anthem and blonde redhead

You need to get your hands on Sigur's "Heima" DVD.

Glen Hansard (of The Frames) & Marketa Irglova - "The Swell Season"
-Really great stuff. Somewhat of "Iron & Wine" meets "Damien Rice" but with greater complexity. Check out "Drown Out" on the Swell Season myspace page.

Sigur Ros - Heima (Audio DVD)
-Pure gold. A definite must for any Sigur fan.

Vampire Weekend drops today. http://www.myspace.com/vampireweekend I'm kind of torn. They're very derivative (and the whole "Ivy League" shtick is annoying) , but their album has so many good "singles". I think this is the first uber-hyped band in a long time that's actually going to have legs outside the realm of music snobbery. I expect them to blow up. Big-like.

Any band that highlights the issue of the Oxford/serial comma (I give a ****, myself) is cool with me.

Love love love this band. Saw them live last year, and their energy definitely carries over well. I am, however, kind of disappointed that "Little Giant" didn't make it to the album and that the songs that aren't on their myspace aren't nearly as good.

I was really interested in that Heima dvd when it was released, but I had since forgotten about it. I think one of my London friends had gotten a copy, but it hadn't been released state-side yet, so I forced it out of my mind. Thanks for the reminder! I'll def. grab a copy.

As far as Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova... There music is phenomenal, but I don't know whether to be jealous or angry that they're a "couple" now... he's going on 40, and she's like 19.... God damn the world. She uber-cute. I think I'm just angry that she's not on the singles market, but I'll probably be happy things like this are possible when I hit 40. end of rant.

Today it's been a mix. Old Dischord Records band... Grey Matter. Then some of The Jam, followed by Manic Street Preachers. Gonna have to play Motorcycle Emptiness one more time at ear bleeding volumes.

The Band's "Rock of Ages."
