A Proper Welcome and More

posted Tuesday, 26 September 2006
    I just realized that I never gave a proper "welcome to the blog roll" to FiL over at pogo a go-go. So, Welcome! Don't let him fool you--he comes off like a really refined and decorous sort of fellow, what with his eloquent writing style, but I think that's just a facade for one wild-and-crazy guy, as evidenced by his love of all things punk and rammy.
    I've added music is art, too, who curates one of the most beautiful blogs out there, in looks, words and music. A lovely place to spend some time.
    Since this is a bit of a catch-all post, I'd like to remind everyone that Emily Haines' solo cd comes out today (in the US; UK release is Spring '07; it's already out in Canada). Knives Don't Have Your Back is on my must-buy list. Some folks find it a bit mellow or all-of-one-piece, but that's actually what I'm looking for right now. I mean, how could I not love an album that explores melancholy and heartache and life-altering loss?
Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton--"Our Hell" mp3 off Knives Don't Have Your Back (buy)
    And I suppose this is old news, but I never said a proper good-bye to Colin at let's kiss and make up. He shut his blog down a couple of weeks ago, and I still miss it. There are certain songs I got from him that will always bring him to mind, none more so than this one:
Marion--"Time" mp3 off This World and Body (buy)

*Blushes* Many thanks, mjrc, for the formal welcome and generous praise! "Rammy" - that's not a term I'm familiar with, but methinks I get the gist and I like it!!

music--right back at ya, baby. and fil--think of the kids and the energy they have pent up when they've been in the back seat too long and how that can break loose at any moment. that's rammy!

I get it! In other words, as Joey Ramone sang: "They're piling in the back seats / They're generating steam heat / Pulsating to the back beat / BLITZKRIEG BOP!!"
