Not Necessarily The News

Its Saturday evening and I decided to stay in and finish up some booking and random emailing rather than head out. During the course of said evening, as I was searching for records to listen to, I realized what a weird music faze I've been in lately. I noticed myself listening to a lot of my favorite records from high school. now, most of these releases have stuck with me and were tossed on at certain times here and there but lately its been a ton of the old punk records I loved and connected with for so many reasons, so many years ago. I don't know if this is because of the break up really putting me in this place where I can't focus the intricacies of the music I'm listening to or just me realizing how much these records meant to me and my musical development. I've even found myself in search of new bands that posses this similar feel. Its actually quite refreshing to go back to the basics.

Now that a pointless back story was given, lets make a list of what albums I've been listening to lately. A large majority of which are related to the above ramblings but also features a few that are new(er) as well:

The Lawrence Arms - Apathy and Exhaustion
The Ghost - This Is A Hospital
Tuesday - Freewheelin'
Kid Dynamite - Shorter, Faster, Louder
Alkaline Trio - Alkaline Trio
Hanalei - We Are All Natural Disasters

Look Mexico - To Bed To Battle
Mountain Asleep - Hello Anxious
We Are The Union - The Gun Show Must Go On EP

(Sorry about the lack of content posts lately. My nerd journal has become a bit more personal and "wordy")
