Faces In The Rain


the other day i saw someone i used to know.
they walked up to me & swore they remembered me from somewhere,
but for the life of them, they just could not remember me.
i on the other hand, knew exactly who they were and just played opossum for laughs.
after oh so many guesses, i told them who i was with a smile on my face.
their curious grin faded and they said,
'that can't be, i heard you died last year'

Dummy - Portishead (trip-hop)
my first experience with Portishead took place last year at Coachella fest. i was blown away although i was extremely tired. i had never heard of them before that encounter and i found out later that it was their first US show in god knows how long which made me feel like i was a part of something.


Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? - Metric (pop new wave guitar)
what i like most about this album is the song 'Dead Disco', if you listen closely, you can hear a SERIOUS influence from the Cure's 'A Forest', i've read it was deliberate but i'm not too sure. either way it's a great song off of this primo album.


Les Comtes de la Krypt - Kryptonix (psychobilly)
i love things in french, it gives things a kind of snooty/classy feel, Le Big Mac for example. Kryptonix aren't snooty or classy though, which is good because i can only stomach so much of that.
