hey man, each to his own.
that's my own.
i've been really dissappointed with music in any genre
lately.
i quite enjoyed the sote EP, but it was only 2 songs =(
any suggestions are welcome!

Hahahahahaahahahahahhaha... bwahahahahaha...

I'm a nice guy, but I have a satanic side. And the devil
within me, frankly, doesn't give a shit. }:-D

I couldn't possibly afford all the music I want... granted,
I COULD buy something... ah well.

I listen to music on CPU, mostly... heck, when I get more
harddrive, I'm going to copy my favorite CDs (I have 400
official CDs) onto it so I never have to touch them again. I
have Drukqs and the RDJ Album... haven't touched them in
months, sitting there rotting while I use Winamp to play the
MP3s... clicking is so much easier than changing CDs
physically... I'm lazy.

I paid 40 dollars for a COASTER? Basically... that's how
much Drukqs was. Fuck that. I'm through with buying CDs.
Evil, yeah, bad for the artists, yeah... but... I don't
care. It's good for me. Got raped enough.

I'm sure BOC will survive the hardships of me downloading
Geogaddi... maybe if it was a very small band that NEEDS the
money badly, I'd buy it. I bought some local bands' CDs to
support them... these guys need it.

But Aphex doesn't need me... I don't HAVE any MP3s by
artists that ABSOLUTELY NEED THE MONEY, so I just, honestly,
can't feel bad about it.

When I get a decent job and money to burn, I might buy CDs
again... maybe. Even if they're a fucking rip off...

Murray Street is a great record...Their last was a bit
disapointing, but they make up for it with this one. Has a
nice mellow feel to it. Soem of the songs remind me of
Television on Marquee Moon.

seeing them in august in dc, it'll be my 3rd time seeing
them.. :)

its from 8/1/98

and yeah they're pretty much all new tracks...though the
second one seems to be a rework/remix/other version of
another track (i forget which one)

its quite good too...maybe i should have given it a
8/10..though its only a little over 15 mins long...

oh...and i was wondering..are the peel sessions broadcast
live on the radio?
or is it just where the artists go into peel's studio and
record a little set strictly for release on cd?

they're all broadcast through john peel's show, and not ALL
