Infectious

I fell into an alternative rock (including indie rock) mood yesterday evening, so I've been listening to the only decent alt rock station around here today. I've heard a couple songs I liked, but wasn't familiar with before, and this totally infectious, '90s style is one of them. I might be late to this party, but I'm sharing anyway.

I listened to this song repeatedly last evening just because you posted it. I'd never heard it before. I wish I had money. It's totally stuck in my head now "...faster than my gun...faster than my bullet..."

Aaah ha ha ha ha!

Argh! Damn you! Now it's in my head again!

Dude, there are so many new albums I want right now with no less than three of my all time favorite artists releasing new ones this coming Tuesday.

Yeah, it sucks. I mean, awesome that good new music is coming out, but sucks I can't afford any of it. I have a list of albums going back probably two years that just keeps growing. I realized about a month ago that last year at this time I wanted the Airborn Toxic Event album...a year ago! Still don't have it. There's a moratorium on music purchases until finances change. I hope that comes soon.

It's the same way for me, except I still buy new music now and then. Even when I'm buyin a CD or more a week, there's still a lot that get passed up because I'm in the mood for something else at the time and then they get temporarily forgotten, etc. There are albums from a few years or longer ago I still need to get from my favorite artists. The pains of being an obsessive music lover/enthusiast.

Still listening...

"...got a rolled cigarette...hangin' out his mouth..."

"...all the other kids with their pumped up kicks better run, better run, faster than my gun..."

Argh! I just checked out the other two songs they have up on their MySpace page and like them, too...but the album doesn't come out until May 24!

Yeah, I'm gonna have to check them out more when I'm at home. From the video it looks like they do some stuff that's definitely more revved-up.

The other two actually aren't all that revved-up, but maybe more so than "Pumped Up Kicks".

Really? That video has one where he looks like he's really yelling at the crowd, and it seems like the song is pretty high energy. Oh well, still something to check out.

Well, I've only heard the three songs, so you're probably right. Now I'm looking forward to hear how their more intense stuff sounds.
