When in Rome

Tonight we (Courtney, Hilary “Duff,” and I) saw Nickel Creek and they were amazing. As always. They covered Toxic (yes, by Britney) and it was genius. So much talent in that group.

The Ditty Bops were with them, and they were super fun. One of the girls had pink hair and it was hott. And? They have a bikini bicycle calendar. SO AWESOME.

Tomorrow is a day for movies and liquid refreshment. Ohhh yes.

Mr. and Mrs. Christmas - Bang The Poll. From what I’ve gathered, it seems to be a stealth release by Underworld. And a fucking brilliant one at that. I mean, seriously. How sick is that bassline? Plus, the melody that jumps in a little before 3:45 always catches me off guard and makes me grin like an idiot. Heh. Download it. Listen to it on repeat. Try to figure out what the hell Karl is saying through those lovely vocal effects.

This has me even more excited about a new Underworld album. Whenever that happens. The boys are definitely still on top of their game. (Props to the Dirts for the hookup).

Speaking of brilliant music, I got Takk… a week ago, and it’s amazing. Sigur Rós doesn’t disappoint. The album is ridiculously, extravagantly beautiful. Go watch the video for Glósóli (high-quality torrent). It sounds silly, I know, but it totally makes me cry (in a very good way).

I’m also excited because last week ended a month-long streak of second shift at work. I’m now going to be working normal hours and I’ll actually see Bryan for more than two seconds a day. Maybe I’ll even start to have a life again.

But, really? OMFGNEWUNDERWORLD!!11!
