Yesterday's purchases

While I really went to go to Newbury Comics for the "Remington Steele" Complete 1st season DVD's, I also picked up the new Sleater Kinney, <a href="http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/s/sleater-kinney/woods.shtml">"The Woods."</a>

Totally rockin' me right now. I'm in a complete female rock mode. Last 4 CD's I've listened to: Sleater Kinney, White Stripes, Jem (love her tribute to Bill Hicks) and Barbaro.

Jem?

As in, "Woah oh oh - JEM! Truly outrageous, truly truly truly outrageous! Woah oh oh oh, Jem! JEM! Truly outrageous, truly truly truly outrageous..."

Heh. I own "The Woods", but I haven't listened to it yet. Only last weekend got the soundsystem hooked up.

Lara listened to it and did not like it. She's more of a "Hot Rock" grrrl, anyway.

rladew: thanks for the Cave In bootleg. I can rest easy knowing that "Dazed and Confused" is nearby. Me, my tool belt, and Cave In make for an excellent Sunday.

I now have all the "Pitch Perfect Black" stuff, including demos not on the album". Hit me up if interested.

My initial assesment: Both more aggro and melodic (often in the same song) RCA made a big mistake in dropping these guys. I still think they have a potential to be HUGE. great band.

I think the legit album streets Sep 13 or so... Ill definitely be going on a shrewsbury Newbury trek that day.

WOW! the Shrewsbury (my hometown) Newbury Comics fagen was just totally dropped. I like the song when sleater kinney breaks up with her french boyfriend and her croissant is getting cold.

we should go record shopping and get coffee or something. in person I hardly ever talk politics which makes me a little easier to get along with...
