The Letter L

Oh, Lucero! They got a new album, Women & Work, coming out March 13!


Every time I listen to this band I am 25% happier than before. I also get bummed because it makes me want to work out, and then I think about how little I work out. However, there is that 25% happiness. It all equals out. Very bouncy UK indie pop!
Los Campesinos! - Death to Los Campesinos!


I want it to be a sunny Saturday afternoon in the winter. I want a roller rink, roller skates (not roller blades), and Cherry Coke. I want this song to be playing.
Little Dragon - Ritual Union



Smokin' hot cover! I love how full force this song is, then you have the funky intro and outro.
Linda Gayle - Maggie s Farm (Bob Dylan Cover)




Awesome mashup! This guy has a ton of em', check it out here.
Lenlow - Mercedes Beck


Liz Phair never got the recognition she deserves. Sure her music is very female based, but that has never stopped me before. It's not all sappy though, it's tough and raw both lyrically and musically. She had a small hit back in the 90's with Supernova, which is from the album Whip Smart. It's a great record. This song is from that album as well. I love that bass line and the drums!


Horns a plenty!
La Cherga - Ciganka


I know these guys have been around for a long time, but I never heard them before. Judging from this song, I foresee that I will be checking them out further. A new addition to the road trip mix!
Les Savy Fav - Let's Get Out Of Here

Yup, I'm a big nerd!

Kind of relevant

It's been a while since I had the motivation to update this here so called blog. Where have I been one might ask? My answer is, Lazytown. If you have never been there it's a wonderful place filled with naps, comfortable furniture, filling food, and televisions that only play captivating movies and shows. However I am here today, and that is what really matters.

Exene Cervenka - Trojan Horse (No Longer Available)

I decided that it is time for me to move on from my current job and find something that is going to actually make me feel good at the end of the day. I work for a bank and my particular position is one where I have to deal with angry people multiple times through out the day. It's especially fun when they are already pissed off and you have to deliver them more bad news. Quite often it's justified, sometimes it's not. Either way it's not what I want to do forever. This past month so much has changed there and it's causing a lot of unnecessary turmoil. Fee changes, new systems (both internal and external). I never really wanted to work there in the first place but I really needed a job. I applied to a few place I actually worked for in the past, both really good companies that I enjoyed working. Here's hoping! I just realized that this song is really two songs in one. I could edit it or pull the song from the CD but I am lazy and I sort of like it this way.
Suicide Machines - So Long and I Don't Want To Hear It (Minor Threat Cover)

I am horrible at making myself exercise. I never do it and if I try to keep a regimen, I usually don't make it through 2 weeks. I am trying again though I have made it two days in a row. Along with that I haven't done done anything that physical in months, I know bad, right!? To say that I am feeling the burn is an understatement. I am sure I will feel it even more tomorrow. I am starting out little and working my way up and skipping a day through out the week. I have a playlist filled with fast tempo music to keep me going and I also make it so it goes for a certain amount of time. When a few songs go by I know to change to something else. It works really well.
