Thursday Random Eight (09/17/2009)
The dB's - Any Old Thing: I'm starting to think The dB's are the iPod's favorite band.
Ministry - Thieves: Probably my favorite Ministry song.
Junkie XL - Metrolike: A lengthy bouncy track full on mindless chatter.
Sonic Youth - What Do You Want: From the experimental Syr5 release, this is Kim Gordon droning to the sound of muted feedback and oddly tuned guitars...and then she yells...maybe it isn't terribly experimental for Sonic Youth.
Tom Waits - Rain on Me: Fun little track that is good for a day when it seems like things really aren't going very well.
The Red Krayola - Container of Drudgery (Never Had a Name): I'm never really sure how to categorize The Red Krayola. I suppose there is a hint of jazz in a very relaxed, somewhat disjointed composition. This song pushes 16 minutes in a repetitive but compelling collection of stray guitar notes and subtle rhythms.
Terre Thaemlitz - Fat Chair: Eerie ambient electronic piano; always entertaining stuff.
The Velvet Underground - Heroin: From possibly the most influential band of modern indie'ish music is one of their most influential songs.
