New Music

(well it's new for me)

I recently purchased some music. I'm gonna talk about it.

I ordered Jonezetta - Popularity, The Classic Crime - Acoustic EP Seattle Sessions and XV Live by Project 86. Popularity is cool album, I like it. I've listened to it about 5 times through and while some of it starts to sound similar and blend together I enjoy every song and it is a welcome addition to my music collection. Seattle Sessions is good too. It's nice and chill, Seattle so far is favorite song off it. I've listened to thrice or so. Next is XV Live. This is a bit of a story...

XV Live was shipped before the other CDs but I got it at the same time... only I got the CD in a clear jewel case. This was because the CDs in the real cases were faulty. So I e-mailed them saying I needed a case. Two days ago I got the case in the mail PLUS another working CD. And then yesterday I got ANOTHER case in the mail. So I currently have four copies of the CD, two that work and two that don't and two cases. The package with the CD and case was sent on 12/29 and the case by it's self was sent 1/11... but I got it after... So they sent me an extra case because I thought they didn't send one but they sent an extra working CD... I e-mailed them to see if they want it back or whatever...

Soo... I listened to the album 3 times whilst driving to various locations and it's good. Not really a "fan" of live albums but yeah, I dig it. And what's sweet is that in the booklet there's a note that I'll quote right now:


"..to an unforgettable night at The Niverville Fair in Winnipeg"

I was there. NBD. It was a sick show and I got to meet Andrew Schwab for the second time. He's a cool guy. I also ordered his latest book which was an interesting read.

So I've been listening to those jams lately but recently I've been listening to some Angels & Airwaves as well as Emery. AVA makes a good soundtrack to a morning bus ride even though it makes me wish you could mosh on public buses. Emery is putting out a new album in March and I'm super excited for that. Toby and Matt also started a side project called The Water And The Well. They've got a few jams on myspace and I'm diggin' it.
