As much as i am intrigued by witch house,
i hate it when kids think that drugs are cool.

COSMETICS - 7"s


Personally, i think that these 7"s are huge.
however, essentially everyone that i have shared them with
up to this point has been unimpressed.
granted, one of these people was trying to decide
whether he preferred uffie or ke$ha,
which i suppose colors him absolutely devoid of any taste anyway.

he also recently posted a moronic open ended thank you note
regarding his appreciation
of alcohol, marijuana, and opiates, which he spelled opiets.
now, i know that my spelling and grammar are abysmal, but this is bum is a bum so harumph.
i will follow this post up with Project X.
classic.

paper armies - st


i had to post this eventually as well.
heart wrenching, lush ambient shoegaze.

although, i actually cannot listen to this anymore,
and probably will never listen to it again
because of associated memories,
it is a fantastic work never the less
and ought to be listened to by people
who dont hate their memories.

i could write more about this,
but who cares.

The Arctic Flow - Goodbye Oceana


obviously, i needed to post this at some point.
it was released a couple of weeks ago,
but seeing as i have not been updating this blog,
what do you expect.

anyway, i love the arctic flow.
the single is free,
thank you Holiday Records
(who by the way, have reuploaded
some of their back catalogue!)

the instrumental b-side
is particularly noteworthy.
