Back in my depressed days, I had a playlist of songs that accurately described just what my life was like. I decided to give it a listen, and I'd say life has vastly improved since those days.

If you want to experience the bottomless black hole I used to face waking up every morning, I suggest you find a way to secure the whole list. If you have a Rhapsody account, links have been provided. You can also listen to 25 tracks for free if you're account-less, but be warned: each playlist is 20 tracks each.
Warning: Do not listen to this if you already feel like shit.

After watching Dr. Horrible, I couldn't get the They Might Be Giants song "Someone Keeps Moving My Chair" (aka Mr. Horrible) out of my head, so I bought Flood (for the 5th time, probably?) on Itunes and have been listening to that.

Saw them live for the second time on Friday at La Zona Rosa. Amazing concert. Krug is such a perfectionist and things kept screwing up, it was pretty entertaining and didn't detract from the show at all.

Wintersleep opened for Wolf Parade. I wasn't a huge fan. They got heckled during most of their set.

This strikes me as something that Bob M. (and others) might really enjoy.

Universal Music has launched a service to compete with iTunes, called Lost Tunes, which is available now in the UK.

Naturally, Universal isn't presenting the service as an iTunes threat, and, to be fair, its focus isn't on selling music to everybody. Instead, the new Universal service offers extremely rare single and album tracks from the labels extensive music back catalogue - better still, songs are being sold in MP3 format at a (relatively) impressive 320kbps - so high quality, near lossless audio downloads of tracks you just can't find elsewhere.

shame it's only for the UK, so far.

BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I

Irma Thomas - stuff from the 1961-66 period... guh! amazing!! Nawlins!!!
v/a - Love is Love LP (great african highlife and etc compilation)
Meneguar - The In Hour LP
Meneguar - Strangers in our House LP
TFUL282 -- Strangers From the Universe LP and a bunch of old live tapes circa 1990-95
The Fugs - 1st two albums
bunch of wierd/psych/etc stuff on the Shadoks reissue label (ie. The Contents Are, Blops, Public Nuisance...)
Sic Alps - U.S. EZ

...and yeah that new service is awesome! I hope it opens more record labels up to the idea of not needing to press CDs and do marketing in order to make some of their older, "less profitable" music that's currently languishing on their shelves legally available again.
