Alright, lists are lame. And no lists are better than www.5ives.com. Ever.
But I was in a very listeney mood today at the office, so let's share. No, let's.
1. Kronos Quartet plays Philip Glass String Quartets.
This album's obsessively repetitive arpeggios are perfect for getting every last piece of schmatz out of my blasted open-keyed keyboard. every. last. bagel. crumb. Get me a toothbrush.
2. Texas Campfire Songs - Michelle Shocked.
Wasn't she cute when she was a lesbian? This album usually has to be shut down in 3 and a half minutes, due to my incessant headphone warbling. Laura the Explorer is not pleased.
3. Kernel - Seam
Why do I love these guys? Who knows. Who friggin knows.
4. Think Tank - Henry Rollins
The sound of this man's voice makes my ovaries do jazz hands. If you've never heard the story about Henry begging his throat doctor to slit the 'golden vocal chords of the anti-christ' Michael Bolton, well...you should go listen to it then.
5. Strange Geometry - The Clientele
I got all stubborn and stuff about never liking another Clientele album more than I liked Suburban Light. But this one's ok. I mean it's still them and everything, writing lovely songs, making you want to get all London-y...alright, it's just as good.
6. Oui - The Sea and Cake
Like doing it in Caramel Sutra ice cream. Joyfully. In Chicago.
