Hear Ta Listen

We Both Go Down Together
The Decemberists: Picaresque
I love a good story. And spies. This song has both.
No Children
The Mountain Goats: Tallahasee
Catchy! And excellently, darkly funny.
Destroyer
The Stills: Without Feathers
Hee! This song is all catcy and happy, then you hear the phrase "I will destroy you."
I Summon You
Spoon: Gimme Fiction
Solid album - while waiting until this was cheap enough to buy, I investigated several older Spoon albums, and found that I love them.
The Bends
Radiohead: The Bends
Using my mad Ticketmaster skillz, I helped HF get tickets to this so very sold-out show next month. I forgot how great this album is.
Handle Me With Care
Jenny Lewis: Rabbit Fur Coat
Excellent cover.
The Way We Get By
Spoon: Kill the Moonlight

We are moving, conveniently in time for the New Year. I won't make a resolution to post with more consistency, because I couldn't keep that promise last time, and I don't want to make it worse by resolving to do that. But I can try to post with more consistency, and I will.

Ro and I are moving to WordPress, land of the free (website). We aren't even shelling out for the CSS manager, so it will be a marginally more stripped down (dirty!) version of the site, but probably not noticeably. We are cheap. But given that it is less clunky than this here site, it may encourage us to post more, so there. I DON'T HAVE TO JUSTIFY MY ACTIONS TO YOU.

The new address will be (drum roll!) rotablog.wordpress.com. I KNOW.

I'll leave this up til New Years' Eve, at which point I will cancel this site, IMMEDIATELY (as TypePad so helpfully warns) deleting all of this content. So I hope y'all are checking this!
