Peanut Butter Words and Ha-ha Breath: 2005.07
http://revelatory.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
You Are (And Pretty Much Always Have Been) My Sunshine. The new Silver Jews album, doesn't come out until October (weird, I reflexively started to write "Cocktober," a word that has never occurred to me before). Even so, I will go slightly and unncessarily nuts in my desk chair if I don't get my thoughts out on "How Can I Love You If You Won't Lie Down? GETTING WARMER AT 7/29/2005 12:57:00 PM. Titularly Oriented, I Promise. Boyz n the Hood. And Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Also, great cameos/appearance...

This Is Also Sort of About Lil Wayne. I only post it here because I realized that we talk about Cat Power after Edith Frost but not Edith Frost after Cat Power, or really even Cat Power after Cat Power. Also, Edith Frost was in the "hot" Stycast and Lil Wayne wasn't. Also, "The Rain" was. Also Brad Shoup. GETTING WARMER AT 11/30/2005 09:44:00 AM. Peaks Lick Sky Like Flame Lick Sky. Either way, sitting here listening to Tha Carter II. He tells us he's hungry and he sounds like it (I eat a lot in wintertim...

Wednesday, November 15, 2006. The Burden of Expectation (AKA Mallory's Week In The City). Without naming names and starting pointless fights about what is (like most things, really) nothing more than a matter of opinion, I'm finding certain colleagues reactions to the recently leaked Bloc Party album both a) disarmingly vague and irritating and b) exactly what I expected. Given the level of (deserved) praise Silent Alarm. Are willing to listen twice, maybe even three times to their new record. They're al...

Saturday, March 31, 2007. Life is very short and there's no t-i-i-i-ime. Which eclipses the Beatles own rendition by a miracle mile. Perhaps because he sings like he's desperately meaning (and needing) it, whereas we all know what completely fucking useless human beings McCartney and Lennon turned into. It's what, five years between "We Can Work It Out" and "How Do You Sleep? Cross-posted with mothafuckin' S&M. Posted by Mallory on Saturday, March 31, 2007 at 10:07 PM. Links to this post.

Tuesday, October 31, 2006. You Look So Absurd / You Look So Obscene / Oh". Yeah, so I ain't exactly painting the town tonight. But as a frustrated pre-teen rap fan trapped in a frustrated little goth boy trapped in a frustrated rapidly aging I don't know what all, Halloween has to be the best holiday, like, ever and shit. Wow, that made no sense. neither does this:. Ministry - " Everyday Is Halloween. Time to go get more bourbon. For the love of Christ, please have a safe and joyous Holiday and stuff.

Thursday, June 07, 2007. Hey love, we'll get away with it. At the Opera House, Toronto. Tuesday June 5th 2007. There is actually, and I don't say this lightly, a phrase in the press release for Boxer. That does a decent job of summing up what the National sound like: "a meditative rumble that starts in the heart, gets caught in the brain, and resonates outward." Still, J. Edward Keyes continues to put it best. Get played). If I'd known it was on the Cherry Tree. One thing that J's post that definitely he...

Friday, November 17, 2006. Just One Pair Is All I Want. Alfred and I both raved way back in July( here. Respectively) about Escort's previous single, "Starlight," a simmering slice of summer's madness delivered in discotheque form. I made the rare journey to a local record store on a quest for more Serge Gainsbourg music (I've just finished Fistful of Gitanes. But more on that later), and though I was unlucky in that quest, imagine my astonishment and delight when I found a brand new Escort 12" single!

Monday, December 18, 2006. Top 10 Albums of 2006. I did a top-five list with blurbs for Scenestars.net. Last week (although it hasn't gone up on the site yet), and while I was at it, I figured I could fill in the rest of the ballot that I submitted to the Jackin' Pop. Poll (Still torn about whether or not to contribute to Pazz and Jop this year. On one hand, there's the genuine thrill of inclusion the last couple of years: "Ma, I'm in the Village Voice. And so here we are:. 10 Hot Chip, The Warning.
