echo....echo....echo....echo....echo....

I've changed my mind about that Cold Cave album. After much listening, and seeing them twice live, I've decided that it's actually quite good. I've been listening to a ton of Human League lately. This Heat, and the Pop Group are ruling my world pretty well.

"being boiled"-the Human League
 "she is beyond good and evil"-the Pop Group
"the fall of saigon"- This Heat
 "20 jazz funk greats"-Throbbing Gristle
"confetti"- Cold Cave

The band I'm in will be going "into the studio" this weekend. We've had such an overwhelmingly good response to our music that we've decided that we've just GOT to put something out. I'm really excited about it, seeing as it's the first time I will have done anything like this.

Well, that's all I've got.

Cherish the Light Years is a hugely disappointing album, but there was one sparkling beacon of greatness reminiscent of "Youth and Lust"-y ness...

You gonna look fine
Be primed for dancing
You're gonna trip and glide
All on the trembling plane
Your diamond hands
Will be stacked with roses
And wind and cars
And people of the past

I'll call you thing
Just when the moon sings
And place your face in stone
Upon the hill of stars
And gripped in the arms
Of the changeless madman
We'll dance our lives away
In the Ballrooms of Mars

You talk about day
I'm talking 'bout night time
When the monsters call out
The names of men
Bob Dylan knows
And I bet Alan Freed did
There are things in night
That are better not to behold

You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
You're a glitter-gaunt gangster
John Lennon knows your name
And I've seen his

This song absolutely makes me giddy. It's a little ridiculous just how much I love it.
