Miscellaneous Debris – Archive

On the Third day of Christmas, my Friends List gave to me Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky, A double espresso And a bunch of miscellaneous debris Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine – Post Historic Monsters I think I missed the Carter USM Bandwagon, somewhere back in the mid-90’s. I don’t know how […]

On the second day of Christmas, my Friends list gave to me A double espresso, and a bunch of miscellaneous debris. The Libertines – The Libertines Brit-pop, but with more influence of The Cure than Oasis. Fun. Perky. Jumpy. Cute. This album is apparently their latest, released early in 2005. It’s a bit repetitive – […]

On the first day of Christmas, my Friends list gave to me, a bunch of miscellaneous debris The Hold Steady – Seperation Sunday Another band I heard of through pelig, always a source of interesting music. “You should try them out”, he said. “They’re fun – with a sort of classic-rock mentality you’ll probably appreciate”.

Yesterday I was at the Camelot, watching בינתיים play (no site to link to, unfortunately), which was a damn fine show, even though given a choice between a drummer and a string quartet, my vote would go for the beat any day. Having good seats, I had a straight view at the keyboards, made by […]

Iggy Pop’s “The Passenger” is definitely a most underrated piece of music. It’s an ideal track to hear when you’re pissed off, angry, energetic or just when driving along – especially in a hurry. It’s got a pounding beat that just keeps pushing forward and it, well, kicks ass. belvane is fond of a cover […]
