my brightest diamond
“My Brightest Diamond votes Radiohead our favorite band of all time. We cannot commodify the value of being able to listen to this record for years and not tire of it, always hearing something new, the tones never wearing on your ears but rather endlessly fascinating with textures and new sound combinations, the songs and voice plumbing the depths of lostness then raising your spirits to a roaring high. Yes, we gush and are unashamed of our love. I chose this particular track because Diamond Girl needed another theme song. -Shara Worden”
stereogum recently compiled a collection of radiohead covers as a tribute to ok computer’s 10th year. please go there to enjoy more.

jimmy gnecco of ours & i
over seven years ago in providence, rhode island, this picture was taken by my friend erin caruso. at the time, erin and i didn’t even know one another; however like synchronicity, everytime we ran into one another at an ours show, we’d happily smile and say hello like we had known each other for years.
after this one particular show, some fans were hanging outside of ours tour bus and i was lucky enough to enjoy the moment. a boy had asked jimmy if he could play the song meet me in the tower because it wasn’t on that night’s setlist, and we all were able to appreciate a very special impromptu acoustic session.
a few months later, erin kindly surprised me with this black & white picture and to this day, it still takes me back to that exact moment of closing my eyes, feeling completely content and peaceful.

“All of us face many negative forces in life which seem to linger on us like fungal growths constantly emitting spores attaching themselves to our well being and dragging us down as we battle against time which will devour all of us in the end.
It’s a universal truth that we all battle violence and negativity in our lives at times, its part of the life cycle of a slow or fast decomposition depending on how well you can fight this war to live. These Life Sore Spores that pollute our minds and infect our bodies are in a constant battle against our positive energy. Those heart worm menaces and parasitic rot seeping under our skin dividing again and again creating new problems forcing us to battle against them constantly as growths rise up. They are the sickness, sadness and ugliness we face in life. This is the human war we all battle against in life, attacked at every waking and sleeping moment of our existence;

black moth super rainbow
make me feel hypnotized. as soon as those single vintage organ keys ring in against synthesized circles of electric guitars, im taken inside and remain. colorfully colliding inbetween live drums and ambient keyboards, occasional whispers and robotic vocals generate their playful imagination. from pittsburg, pennsylvania, this quintet enjoys to reminisce through memories of their early childhood, casually lamenting complimenting sounds of the psychedelic 60s with an unsettling but mesmorizing vision of today.

[from happy birthday, 2007]
~*~
these last few days have felt like my own private screenplay. sleeping hasn’t seemed to come naturally and im exhausted, feeling as if im still in motion, that everything keeps on moving.
my mother woke up last saturday morning to feeling so dizzy that she could barely even move. she thought maybe she was really exhausted and went back to bed until she awoke again to no feeling in her arm, and no ability to even sit up or walk. her soft words were slurred.. and her confused answers didnt make any sense at all.
everything inside of me opened up and brokedown as i watched my mother having a stroke in front of me. rushing to the hospital and having no direction as to where i was, it almost felt impossible to get there. the vibration of the car began to feel like a rollercoaster stuck inside a maze and my mind went thirty thousand times per second. to actually feel so alone and vulnerable at
you can’t hurt me. 2007-10-02 11:27:16
“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget.”
–Arundhati Roy–

in rainbows. 2007-10-10 12:38:38
the fall is my favorite time of year because of the energy i receive from it. the feeling always comes in terms that keep reminding me of another new beginning. on long windy roads amongst scattered trees, its a pleasure to closely stare out the window in hopes of finding those perfect autumn colors, but lately our country’s weather seems to be misleading the october leaves with its hot, humid summer days. much like my mind, this most beautiful season doesnt seem to know when its suppose to begin again. however fortunately for now, all those special jewel tones of reds, oranges, yellows, greens and blues appear on another path through the colorful form of audiotherapy.
radiohead’s seventh studio album, in rainbows, easily delivers the magic and light that should always be craved in a new fall release. fresh to the ear, some of the songs we have come to know and love over these waiting years diversified themselves into interchanging watercolors.

Covert Curiosity
Song: The Iraq War
by The Black Angels [Passover, 2006]
Context: I was late in picking up the Black Angels’ latest album Passover, even though they are local and I try to hear any new local production as soon as possible. I listened through most of it in the car on my way home from the record store, and left it in the cd player for a few days to give it a closer inspection as time allowed.
Result: Around the same time I received the horrible news that a close friend had been killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq. He was another casualty of the war that had already taken the life of thousands of American soldiers and countless Iraqi citizens. I was angry. I wanted this war to be over, right that second. The Black Angels disc was still in the cd player, but it had gone silent. Not long after I realized this, a hidden track at the end of the album called “The Iraq War” started playing, and it
