I haven't posted in a bit, despite having bought a bunch of pretty sweet pieces.
While on a trip to Pittsburgh, I stopped by a record store to browse for some CDs that I couldn't find anywhere else; I think I made off like a thief, nabbing Radiohead's
Com Lag (2plus2isfive) EP, and three singles by the Foos:
Generator, Low, and
Times Like These.
At Best Buy last week, I bought
In Your Honor by the Foos and the
Sun Giant EP by Fleet Foxes,
on the recommendation of an employee.
And on Friday, I decided to kill my music purchasing for a while, and went out with a filled hole in my collection: Radiohead's
Amnesiac. I've been unsure about buying this for a while, since it seems to be the
most-hated Radiohead album since Pablo Honey, but for what I have in mind to keep myself from buying,
having it felt essential. Oh, I also picked up a (hopefully rare) 2-track EP by Pearl Jam featuring Neil Young, the
Merkinball EP, released as a companion to the Neil Young feat. Pearl Jam album
Mirrorball. Strangely, despite not having a title track, it's considered a single.
I'll get to my plan in another post; right now, I'm going to update the artist pages which need it.
