Bought a couple CD's this weekend that I was thinking I might mention. Tegan and Sara are some emo chicks that have a really distinct vocal styling about them. I'm really into this one song because lyrically it's kind of how I think about shit. "You Wouldn't Like Me," off of their album So Jealous has this great hook..."i think that i wouldn't like me if i met me"...that's rich. So yeah, a bunch of the other tracks are cool as well. Slightly depressing lyrics, upbeat tonality. Yeah.
Then there is The Bravery who are getitng some shit lately for being a Strokes/Killers retread or something like that. I can't keep up with all the nonsense....either I hear it and like or I hear it and it's shit. You dig? Anyway, sounds more like 80's to me than anything. Some Cure in there, some keyboards....I like it. I like it A LOT. Jammed it in traffic today on the way home a rush hour...windows down....got some stares. Fucking people.
Caught some movies this weekend as well. Last time out I saw the Jacket and therefore I decided against going to the theater for the remainder of March a notoriously horrible month for movies. The post award show lull as I like to call it. Anyway, saw Upside of Anger which was really good and saw Sin City which was very strong visually, not so much in the story line/acting departments. I'm not a fan of the grapic novel/comic book thang, so maybe that killed if for me. I still liked it despite it's flaws, so that's saying something.
Not my best "reviews" of all time. But it's after Midnight and I'm fucking beat.
