Compilation called “Slowbrew and Percolator - Music for a Coffee Culture”, a mostly-indie Canadian compilation that kicks ass. Before that, I was listening to the dryer shake the clothes about. Although now I have Bach’s Tocatta and Fugue running through my head. Thanks, **Saint Zero.** ---

I’m listening to Neil Finn’s newest album, **One Nil**. Specifically, I’m listening to track 4, **Wherever You Are**. It’s ever so dreamy. ---

Art’s show is the pinnacle of people-with-tinfoil-hats type stuff, but damn it’s fun to listen to, and it can make you a little worried if you are listening at night. I think that’s why it’s so popular, it’s easy to induce paranoia in people when it’s late. > > Well, I really like Art dammit, but I won’t listen to any of the other hosts. ART IS BACK!!! YAY!!

Fighting ignorance on one hand, and on the other hand wondering when Art is going to do a show about chemtrails. 🙂 ---

It took me 10 years to find my copy of “Black Noise”, the only FM CD I’ve ever found. You must have lived in Canada in the 80’s, or have used Napster. I have it on _vinyl_. 🙂 Yes, I lived in Canada in the eighties. And the nineties. And the zeros. And… Wait. I’m getting ahead of myself. I have _Black Noise_ on CD, though any other FM and Nash the Slash is on vinyl. And damned difficult to find, even in used shops here in Toronto. Ever since the Vinyl Museum and Incredible Records closed… ☹ \ I actually met Nash the Slash once. He’s so nondescript looking in RL that I can’t remeber a thing about his appearance. Terribly annoying. \ 😃 ---

Oh how I love this song. \*\* Sweet! I have been a long time fan of _Worst Case Scenario_ and _In a Bar, Under the Sea_. I was ordering some DVDs on Amazon yesterday and on a whim, I checked out to see if dEUS put anything else out. They had a 1999 album I completely missed! I ordered it. AS an import only, it cost me $21.00. Any thoughts on the _Ideal Crash_ album? I am eagerly waiting to hear it. ---

Nick Drake, _Pink Moon_. Then probably Alice in Chains best-of compilation, and mebbe a little Neko Case & Her Boyfriends. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by mouthbreather \* > **Any thoughts on the _Ideal Crash_ album? I am eagerly waiting to hear it.** I find it a disappointment, sadly. I know fans who swear by it, but it’s never grabbed me the way the first two did. Still, at least it’s good to know I’m not the only fan here 🙂 ---

I was listening to Liszt earlier, but right now Sisters of Mercy _Floodland_. I may listen to the Cars first two albums later. Feel you know me better? The band that is most “me” is probably Violent Femmes, no wait, DEVO, no er…Slayer…um…Psychedelic Furs? ---

Right now I’m listening to: **The Pleasure and The Greed** By Big Wreck. Only 5 or so years in h emaking and totally worth the wait. I’m loving this album. **Loser Anthems, B sides and Rarities** By the Matthew Good Band. Also new, also excellent. **Undertow** BY Tool Need I say more? **Holy Roller** By The Rev. Horton Heat. Another great CD. I love the whole rockabilly sound. Every time I hear “Bales of Cocaine”, or “cowboy Love” I can’t help but sing along. I get the weirdest looks. I don’t know why… **The Compleat Birth of the Cool** By Miles Davis Once again, need I say more? And as a slight hijack… Speaking of Rammestien, I was pleasantly suprised the otherday when I turned on the TV. The new video for Links 2-3-4 is actually getting a bit of air play. ---
