I am 19.

So, this week I turned 19 and I am now in reflective mood. What is different? Can I provide enough tenuous links in this to music? Am I 'blogging'? Yes!

Firstly, I am one third of Big Elephants, a radio show on LSRfm which will hopefully be returning for it's second spell in September. We play music like this;

Bright Eyes - "Four Winds"

Meanwhile, I listen to more 90's Alternative American Music than previously. WHO CARES!? No-one, and they never really did. That's what makes 90's Alternative American Music good, and special. Case Study;

Sunny Day Real Estate - "Theo B"

My pre-requisite for friends has changed. Previously, they could be anyone. Then they could be anyone with suitable music taste. Now they could be anyone again. Anyone who listens to this cannot afford to be choosy;

Paramore - "That's What You Get"

I still love this album;

In My Earz

So, I've been thinking about posting a little more regularly and letting people know more about what music has kept me ticking over the past few days. No better way to do this than with a little run down of my recent listening while revising;

The Decemberists - EVERYTHING! Including YouTube vids!



Lightspeed Champion - Falling Off The Lavender Bridge (esp. Dry Lips)

Fugazi - Live in Irving Plaza

Sunny Day Real Estate - LP2 (both courtesy of Zen and the art...)

Smashing Pumpkins - Bodies!!

The guitar riff is so good with that constant rythmn, took my ever wise Dad to point it out but now I'm hooked!
