Heading Back Into Townes
I’m not sure if there are too many other people who share this, but my favorite records are almost universally too painful to listen to with any sense of casualty. Same with poems, art, certainly novels or narratives or poetry. When I must, I revisit them. It is the compulsion of must which makes them [...]

Perfect Indeed
Do you know what is better than any fagdog shoegaze band ever? It is 1974 Christine Mcvie. A duck walked into her kitchen in 2004. Deal with it. [Audio clip: view full post to listen]

Tell It Like It Is
The best thing about getting sliced and peeled like a mango has been getting to lay back, take some pills and listen to records. Admittedly, there isn’t much fun in pills when you’re actually in excruciating pain, but every now and then you’ll catch a nice wave that feels like you’ve just laid down in [...]

Warblin’ Wednesday
02.09.10 | Permalink | 2 commentsI called one of these tracks “Opiated Disco” when I sent it to a friend, I might stick that to the whole jam. Very little of it’s actually disco, but it all sorta sounds like it’s wearing a flannel button down in July and swaying to the rhythm just a half-beat too slow. 17 tracks, [...]

Ice Cream, Wedding Cake, Miss Havisham
It’s late into the night and I’m listening to this AM frequency pulsing real slow in and out with a stack of soul records from long ago and way up north, which when you’re nerdy about radio like I am is a deeply pleasurable midnight delicacy. So I’m swaying back and forth in my bedroom [...]

What Makes You Think You’re the One?
It’s been like 30 years since the record Tusk came out. Here’s a morbid ‘celebratory’ interview with Buckingham and Nicks (recorded, it seems, apart from one another because the sight of him seems to makes Stevie ill). Can you even fathom if after thirty years, you still kept venom in your heart for an ex-lover? [...]

Pretty Baby
And while we’re dealing out great songs, this is always a sweet one. And the film in its namesake is also an eerily timeless iteration of adolescent female sexuality. When I was a kid, my mother used to use an epilady to de-fur herself. I would sit next to her on the bed in solidarity [...]

Chickasaw County Girl
I’ve got two karaoke standards: Peggy Lee and Bobbie Gentry. I’m working on my Dusty, but she’s got some hiiiiigh notes, I’ll tell you what. Bobbie was one of the first country ladies to write and produce her own songs in the big leagues. (And Dusty was an infamous perfectionist hellhound in the production booth, [...]

Better Moods Through Music
07.14.09 | Permalink | 3 commentsHaving a very nice stereo has got me losing my goddamn mind over three records: Foley Room (Amon Tobin), Uneasy Flowers (Autistic Daughters), Standing On a Hummingbird (Mark Templeton). Whatever, it’s cool to be 3 years late to every party. Here, have all three. I’m trying to attract the Eff See See’s attn so like [...]

Si Tu Me Olvidas
07.13.09 | Permalink | 2 commentsTonight when I arrived home from the Cape, my new (to me) Tivoli radio had arrived. My model one has finally rattled it’s last breath; it will now be played in the kitchen so the warbling treble does not drive me up a wall in the privacy of my own music time. I even have [...]

Future Retro
I really miss the thrill of discovery, and get very little pleasure out of finding new music now that the internet has happened. In my younger years, this was basically my life’s mission. Now I am one of those people who reads nonfiction and listens to either talk radio or the same Elvis Costello record [...]

Usherin’ the Obvious
02.24.09 | Permalink | 4 commentsListen, I’m used to being a total Cassandra about everything, but this is the last straw. Frankly, it’s an outrage that any of you would argue Usher’s hit single Trading Places is not an august homage to getting fucked in the ass. I’m sick of having this discussion. Let me just head the rest of [...]

We Can’t All Be Born Cool, I Guess
01.13.09 | Permalink | 4 commentsInstead of doing work I get paid for I asked myself, “Self, what website have you been consistently reading the longest?” The answer to this does not pay in cash but in pearls. Pearls of cringe-y 17-year-old Lilah wisdom. Why, it’s 75 or Less! Which I only realized was based in Providence like two months [...]

Crimes Against Nature Rule
The man, the myth, la machine that is one half of Worcester’s famous Wilson Twins (separated by like 4 years) is up to some serious no good, per usual, and you should check him out. Hwils does karaoke mashups that will blow your fucking mind, straight up. Consider wrenching out your inner Moz over a [...]

Peace Mitch Mitchell
(Watching this again, I probz would have boned Mick Jagger. I remember being a little girl and my father holding up the record sleeve to show me those silly putty lips, and he was just shaking his head with the sourest puss going, “Yeah, I don’t know, women just go wild over him.”)
