The Mars Volta

Are without the shadow of a doubt the most interesting thing since 1923. Check them out. Download (yes, download) Inertiatic ESP and then go +buy the LP (Deloused in the Comatorium) on 23rd June.

400.

Interestingly, all music composed post 1923 is in the public domain.......interestingly.

My musical tip for the day is "keep the wolf from the door" by radiohead. It's very good.

and the aphex twin remix of "raising the titanic" stirringly beautiful.

The jury's out on that new grandaddy stuff though.

I'm also getting into the subtle rhythmns of inkjet printers printing, overlayed with the tentative typing of a one handed typist. It's the inherent melodies and rhythmns of this post modern office wilderness and it makes me want to cry. I'd release an album of it, 'cept it would be shite and anyone can walk into an office and get a nice live rendition.

So tell me Che, if you had a time machine and could go back to any year in music would it be 1923?

109 (though I normally forget to login) so perhaps 300, who knows?

it isn't a book, it's a map... & like all maps I have had trouble folding it back together again!

If it's 'worth it' depends how much of a sadanalnerdymusosnobby radiohead fan you are... but i bought it yes! ace!
(not as good as amnesiac, which was a (library) book...)
