still under the weight

i am still experiencing the worst writer's block of my life.

i can't think clearly, i don't know whats wrong with my head, the other night i was trying to go to sleep and experienced what i think doing shrooms would be like. crazy colors and things being all wavy and what not, and all without delicious cow turd taste. but anyway..

good music for today: i started on the myspace of One for the Team (Minneapolis power-pop is a good way to describe them, i would say that their older stuff is heavily influenced by STD, they just signed with Militia Group.), i just hit Mouthful of Bees from there (again Minneapolis-based but this time indie-pop got me almost to the Arcade Fire point but the sound isn't as thick, which is good at times just leave it to the Arcade. this band is good, very good, i should write more about them.), We All Have Hooks for Hands (very much like their influences listed on their Space, I like this one too, much like Broken Social Scene, but less brash and more vocals. and apparently they went on tour with Mouthful of Bees last summer, where was I?).

the new Murder by Death comes out today.
if youre feeling saucy and into the likes of Saosin/ Circa Survive check out, Secret and Whisper.

so word. have a good day.

not so faithful

so i haven't been faithful to blogger,
maybe it's that we have an astranged relationship. at any rate i have the worst writer's block that i can remember having. it is kind of frightening actually, but i am hope that i can use this as a device to cure my block for the things that i really need to write. i can't think of what my blog should actually be about now, as i don't have to blog for class any more, i will leave the posts up because i actually think that the class was interesting though in the end the blogs went bunk in the class.

i miss my friends. i have a failed relationship that causes the chink in the chain between myself and two of my best friends. i think that that is the right expression to use there. unfortunately, i refuse to swallow my pride and make amens with this former significant other because she did her best to make my life hell while we were together. plus, she isn't happy unless everyone around understands how she feels, she does not however believe in sympathy, only empathy, so she makes everyone around know exactly how she feels.

i have been out of class for three weeks and fear returning, so i sit in the library, i fear returning because i was sick the first week and a half of my absence, and fell behind by 5 papers in four classes. so i write, and i hope i feel better, in the metaphysical sense.

music of late has been pretty good. as of right now i have listened to (in reverse order): Jukebox the Ghost (sounds like: heaven if freddy mercury's delivery met mick jager's sassy tude and a touch of something i cant quite put my finger on, (or not as the new song has changed my opinion) with piano, organs, funky almost punchy tubed out guitars, and fun drum beats.), Ra Ra Riot (who is playing in Philly @ NorthStar next month and Maxwell's in April.), Vampire Weekend (new album just came out two weeks ago and it is doing really well.), the weirding (solo acoustic, not bad, somewhat reminiscent of Jeff Buckley meets Damien Rice but less with tambor.) from there i dont recall, alive in wild paint, dear hunter were in there too. also edison glass, and paper rival.
other stuff i have been listening to of late: the wonder years (they are a pop punk with group with hardcore roots from Philly its like Reggie but more catchy hard to believe.), neutral milk hotel (if you dont know just stop), grizzly bear (just picked up the friend ep, band of horses does a cover of CSS on there, pretty balls), kimya dawson (i bought remember that i love you the other day and My Rollercoaster is like a bomb track and a half for me.), radiohead, circa survive

i dont know. still cant think and now my brain hurts.

i am gonna go for now, have a good day.
