munching on cold pizza
yeah, i had my heart set on a "fuck the world, i'm reading and piss off for looking at me like that' night, but i headed down to cheapo's first, to rummage around for all the new finds i could get my hands on and see if carlos, skye, or jason were up there to shoot the shit with. i managed to make it there by 11:40, twenty minutes to closing, and i managed to salvage a constantines, clearlake (which just made my computer fucking wigg out), and jay ferrar album! talk about a haul! this beats the time i got rilo kiley's execution, the black key's thickfreakness, and eric dolphy's out to lunch. i swear to god, cheapo's is like tut's tomb... incredible what can be excavated from that place. i actually saw some other things i was interested in, but not willing to lay bread down for.
i've decided i need to find a band that can challenge me. not a punk band, spewing three chord anthems of political and teenage angst... i'm past that. same goes for glitch-pop, with their usually trite lyrics, slick, sweet-as-frosting layers and monotonous beats. don't get me wrong, because glitch-pop is my candy of choice these days, but i can't do that exclusively, if at all. emo? the musically barren, self-aggrandizing glut of whine and woe? no thanks... i'll keep my whining to myself... there's enough whiners in this world inducing kids who have nothing to be sad about bawl their fresh little faces out. not rockabilly/alt.country either, all bittersweet steel pedal, rolling plains expansiveness, and sad, sour mash lyrics. i don't have the patience to learn steel pedal, and certainly not the patience for and i like alt.country....
no... i need a band that transcends these, making something monumental. something flaming lipsish, with their steadfast, heroin-unmitigated motivation and tidings of goodwill and joy flecked like giant, horse-pill rainbow sprinkles on the most titanic, most slathered with frosting cupcake on the face of the planet. yes... and anthems.
