black bags.

I have done a lot driving since I have gotten my license 13 years ago; it’s either it was driving to shows, record stores, or tasty vegetarian restaurants along the boarding states of pennsylvania or just the numerous road trips around the country, but on all these trips and still today i see black bags along the highway. what the fuck are in these bags? at times i think it's a bag full of money, or maybe it's a dead baby, or a hooker's torso, or even fecal matter. then other times i think it's a bag full of old clothes meant to been delivered to a thrift store. I wish i had stopped for at least one of the bags and investigated it or at least poked it with a stick, maybe if i had, i wouldn't wonder as much, maybe my thought process would focus on more important shit then making ridiculous assumptions on what's in a black bag along the highway.

swans - love will tear us apart ep.

i love the swans, and what could be better then the swans covering a joy division song..

dirty three - horse stories

they play aggressive ferociously emotional songs, very violin driven, everything this band does i find beautiful and truly amazing.

diaper - the brown suit

it's impossible to find info on this band, nor do i have the cover art work but i made one :)
this album is rad, very focussed on the violin and fronted by a female (who i was told played on nirvana's nevermind). it's folk like but expermental at times, i was also told todd rittman and pat samson is in this project as well, it's the reason my friend gave it to me he knows i'm really into us maple.

fela kuti- expensive shit.

i love this album, it's just so damn catchy, i'm not going to lie here, makes me want to shake my ass, and i never shake my ass, and i hate funk music, but i'm really into fela. I found out who fela was from a bread a circuits record, they used some of his music as sample intros, and ever since then i was really into him, i think this is one of his best albums.

rapider than horsepower - stage fright, stage fright

this band reminds me of pavement and les savy fav at times, very experimental and fun.

Man, anything that even might have something to do with U.S. Maple is worth my time. I consider myself very lucky to have seen them live (in 1999 or 2000 after Talker came out, I think). For as loose, jangled, and jarring as their sound is, they were (and still are) the tightest rock and roll band I've ever seen.

thanks for the Swans... never heard them before, but if they cover Joy Division they gotta be good!

think the black bags are probably from someone cleaning up the side of the highway and they leave the bags for someone else to come pick up. here in sc, it would either be the prisoners on work release or slightly less possibly, a group/organization that signs up to look after it, like community service work. guess the state or someone like that actually removes the trashbags at a later date.
