anorak

I know one: The drummer from IN DISGUST was also the drummer for SOURPATCH!! Any others??? [I learned guitar to start my own pop band (Bee Stings) and we are working on our grindcore alter-ego (Stung By Bees). Because these disparate genres are my love and my life, and what if there was a band that ...

In addition to my decade old punk and grindcore t-shirts, I recently added some fly indie pop joints to my sparse wardrobe: Sarah Records (black with a pink cat listening to a dansette. looks dope as fuck with my bullet belt), Beat Happening (cream colored with the first album cover), and Heavenly (...

My friend played one of their records over the weekend and I'm pretty enthralled with them, this song in particular

I didn't record a song, but I wanted to announce that occasional anorak poster "malaise" has learned to play guitar and started a band! It's kind of half formed because our bassist/vocalist dropped out, but the drummer is totally on board for this project. Right now we are working on POP songs until...

It's actually from the early 70's. It's a sad, sad album and one of my favorite autumn/winter records.

clouds = moisture in the air. just sayin'

This thread is relevant to my interests.

new Peach Kelli Pop single and "Demos and Rarities II" tape. They played here Friday night w/ Dream Phone!! Great show!!

I figured it was because of his accent. There were moments when I couldn't understand other people either. I had the same problem when I was trying to watch the Creation Records doc, except much worse. I couldn't even get through that one! Anyway, great film! It made me ache for the days when I coul...

I finally saw the documentary and I couldn't understand anything Matt was saying.

I used to listen the Bedroom Tapes a lot after I found them on a now-defunct blog. My favorite song was "The Mad Girl." I never heard the records though! I think I have some Ruth's Refrigerator stuff that I was into. I'll have to revisit.

I hardly listen to music at all anymore. I used to sit in front of my stereo for hours at a time, but now my attention span is shit and nothing really moves me. I'll listen to some unfamiliar albums that I downloaded if I have to take a long drive, but I don't spend time with and absorb music like I...

Yeah not having tables of conjugations totally flies in the face of my instincts. I decided though, to just relax and do the courses and hopefully it will eventually click. Duolingo and Mango are both okay, better if used together, but it is a lot of work for really slow results. (I'm fucking with 4...

Usually I associate records with the seasons I happened to get into them.

Snowy winter mornings: The Carousel - I Forgot To Remember To Forget
Snowy winter evenings: Leonard Cohen - Songs of Love and Hate

Lots of others too, but those are standouts of the past 8 or so years.

Anyone have any experience with online language classes? If so, were you able to achieve some level of proficiency without books or an instructor? The other day I started using two websites/apps (Duolingo and Mango) for German, Spanish, and French. I'm sad that I'm already forgetting the German I le...

Vånna Inget - Ingen Botten LP. Saw them last night and they were fantastic. I don't know, maybe if you liked Wax Idols you would dig em.

I wonder if there's any chance of this showing in the U.S. ever? I know of someone in Pgh whose attention I could bring it to. How much is that DVD though?

Mine came today! This record is dope like soap on a rope, and heads need to pump this on all sides of the compass!! Don't sleep!!!
