Hackneyed, Baby!

Am I An Astronaut?

Monday, August 22, 2005
The past few days I've mostly been listening to an excellent bootlegged concert with Kent. It's from their second gig in Stockholm (I was attending the first) and the quality is mindblowing for a amateur-made bootleg. The stand out-track is the superior new version of the old classic När Det Blåser På Månen (When It's Windy On The Moon) performed mostly only with Jocke Berg on an acoustic guitar only to have the rest of the band filling in the long instrumental part at the end (this was made so that Jocke - who was standing on a piedestal in the middle of the audience - could be brought back to the stage). It's a mostly mediocre song turned into a splendid one with just a few adjustments of the original song. Genius, I tell ye!

Apart from such illegal stuff I've been occupying my ears with mainly Bloodhound Gang, much because of my beloved girlfriend whos' newfound love for Hooray For Boobies awoke my dozed off love affair with the Gang, which is nicely timed since their new album (the first one in five frickin' years!) Hefty Fine is released in little over a month and I'm very curious to hear it.

  • Muahahaha! First comment from the girlfriend! ^_- <3 *kisses*

    I hope I get the job on Wednesday, so that I can spoil myself with a BHG ticket; as your 'Hooray for Boobies' album got me hooked. ;) It's pretty goshdarn awesome; and from the sound of 'Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo'; the new album will be awesome too.

    Ooh, btw, you have to hear the new Franz Ferdinand song if you haven't already. It's called 'Do you Wanna?' and It's so catchy. :D

  • Oh, dude, your so fucking sad. Do you seriously listen to Kent? Just get yourself a nice warm kevlarsjäl and bury yourself beneath it.

  • "Oh, dude, your so fucking sad."

    I believe the word anonymous was searching for was 'you're' as that would be the CORRECT abbreviation of 'you are'.

    Although, funnily enough, I can think of a FEW people who are a hell of a lot sadder than those people who listen to, oooh, lemme' see. . . GOOD music. ;P haha.

  • You cannot be serious when saying that "När det blåser på månen" is a mediocre song, it's one of their best. ;)
