Jens Lekman - A Sweet Summernight on Hammer Hill
Alex on December 05 2013
I think one of the main deciding factors of my never visiting Facebook is the fact that I don't give two shits about a list. 10 crazy facts about blueberries grown in the artic tundra during aurora borealis is hardly something I give a fuck about. Most notably I've seen the list regarding things mentally confident people don't do - I haven't read it but I can tell you exactly what they don't do - they don't need to validate themselves by reading a list. Can we please get a social network worth a shit again? I can see myself in 20 years, with the same enthusiasm my mom speaks about the 60's, gallivanting to my son Zeus about the hay day of the internet where everyone was free and you didn't have to deal with your crazy religious zealot of an aunt or your far right wing ex girlfriend's mom in your news feed just to keep up with old college friends you'll probably only see at weddings anyways. On a lighter note: this song!
Built to Spill - Time Trap

Let me let you in on a little secret. No matter how many young guns come on to the music scene, no one will ever be able to touch Built to Spill. They may gain notoriety and global fame, but there has never been a band with such heart. The lyrical prowess of Doug Martsch is beyond. It's beyond.
