Wilsen - Garden

Alex on May 05 2015

Sober Cinco de Mayo.. if you told me I would be sober for a Cinco de Mayo cinco years ago I would have slapped you in the face and called you a bold face liar --and then apologized. I'm not some asshole sober crusader telling you how to live your life, just some dude who's grown to really enjoy living life unfiltered.

It's funny how a few short years can turn you into the exact anti-thesis of your previous self. This notion becomes even more pronounced in my life as I write this new version of left as rain. I go through old posts and almost cringe reading some of the shit I used to write but hold off from hitting the delete post button. It's good having those reminders around about where we used to be so we can see how far we've come. I guess that's why I still have my high school year book, which constantly reminds me its not okay to wear candy jewelry with your bleached spikey hair coming out of a Thundercats visor... ever.

Misun - After Me

Alex on April 28 2015

Sometimes I wonder if I'm a puker... Like one of those people who puke under super tense situations. I honestly devote time to wondering about this, I rarely ever throw up. I certainly don't throw up when I'm stressed .. but then again no one has ever held a gun to my face. That's the fucked up part, you never know if you're a puker until it's way too late. It's gotta suck to have a gun pointed at you but it sucks way more to learn you're a puker.

FMLYBND - Electricity

Alex on April 24 2015

This is one of those tracks that just makes me want to stand in place punching the air like a rock em sock em robot for 4 minutes straight.

SILICON - God Emoji

alex on April 22 2015

Today in chill songs... this one. If I made the music video for this track it would solely contain an overweight dude doing the worm in the slowest motion possible for two minutes and forty one seconds.

Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Sittin On the Dock of the Bay

chris on April 21 2015

I long for the South, so in honor of my southern roots, I bring you some Otis. Otis makes everything better.

Alpine - Foolish

Alex on April 16 2015

On multiple occasions whilst talking about local dining experiences I've had people recommend restaurants and follow that recommendation with a phrase which just sucker punches my soul -- "YOU GOTTA TRY THE MEAT LOAF!" It's at that point I question said person's life decisions, we're they raised on cardboard and cheerios? Have they ever eaten food before? Your oblong cube of meat never tastes good... ever.

Snowden - Fineshrine (Purity Ring Cover)

Alex on April 14 2015

Cutting open sternums has never sounded so peaceful.

Magic Potion - Deep Web

chris on April 10 2015

Lets start this cold dreary day out right, with some lethargic indie rock. What's that you say? It's partly sunny and a refreshing 68 degrees over in California? GO &%$# YOURSELF.

Hot Chip - White Wine and Fried Chicken

Alex on April 08 2015

This track is impossibly chill. Anytime someone is singing to me about fried chicken I will listen and most likely agree. We should make a new Mission Impossible movie called Mission Impossible: Impossibly Chill which would just be Tom Cruise wearing Top Gun aviators sitting on a beach drinking pina coladas with a friendly stray dog watching a sunset.

Built to Spill - Never Be the Same

chris on April 02 2015

My number one band is coming out with a new album. Same great sound, half as much depression. I'm not so sure that formula actually works for Built to Spill. You fuckers better not have found Jesus.
