That is good because this old blog is bad. |

| Reference.com rules. They could suck so hard and yet they are
good, and do exactly what you want! Thats what I have to say
about that.

| I bought Revolutionary, Vol. 2 by Immortal Technique.
He is one hell of a rapper. Imagine if Public Enemy got
political, and thats what he is, if you get my meaning. The
songs are hard-hitting lyrically, and use some, dare I say, beautiful
production. Its sort of the anti-gangsta, anti-bling of rap,
though (which is certainly fine by me).The real tragedy is he's only
sold 30,000 copies so far (according to Wikipedia). |

| I'm eatin' my words and loving every moment of it (:
A little over a year ago some friends and I were talking
about bands that could make a comeback. Lots of things came up,
including Green Day. I said that I thought Green Day had probably
made their comeback with Nimrod
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Warning:, but it
didn't have the same mass appeal as the legendary
Dookie. I figured they had been relegated to
the world of bands that release a minor hit every couple
years.
That is why I am so loving eating my words. I love that
a non-blink-clone album by a punk band has gone triple platinum
again. I love that the stations are playing 9 minute songs
on the radio because they've already played all the short ones. I
love that they've already played all the short ones. I
love that even when I'm in some indie rock trance, this album can
remind me that popular music is often popular for a reason. I
also love that the kids in middle school won't have to look
back at their school days as the time when Dashboard was the
band. I love that ther is finally a decent 'punk opera'.
Mostly I love Green Day (: |
