yesterday, the weather was beautiful; sunny and warm, except for the stinking melting snow. i walked in a neighbourhood where i usually take the metro, and saw a used books/cd/dvd shop that i had never visited before. naturally, i had to check it out. to my surprise, i found two items that have been on my wishlist for a very long time.

maxïmo park - a certain trigger
indie brit rock, of the post-punk variety. favourite track is "the coast is always changing". i love that accent (northern english?).

the thermals - fuckin a
indie rock, with some punk sloppiness to it. favourite track is "a stare like yours".

notice a theme?

bargain

another visit to the bargain section of the cd stores... i picked up a few.

fiery furnaces - blueberry boat
brother-sister duo who make crazy music.

jimmy eat world - futures
file under "guilty pleasure". i must admit that i really like most of these songs.

maxïmo park - missing songs
more post-punk.

reindeer section - son of evil reindeer
a scottish supergroup. their video for the song "you are my joy" is the cutest ever.
