Unite

Game 2 tonight. I'm looking forward to the Wings taking a 2-0 series lead in Pittsburgh.

I'm not sure I really want to talk about the lowest form of music every created (so far) because I will just become angry and there is a chance someone comes along, reads my post, listens to a song, and falls in love with music that I can only describe as utter shit. So I won't. If you do read this and happen to like the new wave of screamo/crunk/pop/fashioncore/douchescene music... I feel very sorry for you.

Instead I want to talk about an album that I really don't give enough credit as to how influential it was in my life. The OC Supertones second album "Supertones Strike Back". That's right ska! I was obsessed with this album and the Supertones (which ended very quickly with the release of Chase the Sun and my discovery of hardcore). I loved this album. I Love this album. If played at this very moment I will jump and start skankin. The lyrics now seem mildly corny and it's a very christian album and band but musically it's great. It's good ska. I will let the music speak for itself.

Some Kind of Zombie

So much for posting more right? I was on vacation last week and was going to post on why music in many forms is slowly turning into one big pile of hot steaming poo. But I didn't That will come later when my musical mind is not in a weird time warp.

While walking to the beach I this week I started singing "Some Kind of Zombie" by Audio Adrenaline. I have not heard this song in... years. Many years. Probably ten years. So that led me to finding the video on youtube. My mom overheard and thus began a conversation about going to Creation festival and the bands from my junior high days.

Anyway, currently watching both the NBA Eastern Confernce Finals (Magic have this in the bag and I couldn't be happier!) and The Stanley Cup Game 1 ( cheering on the Red Wings, who are going to take game 1).
