    the blue note vinyl i ordered during their sale on november 21 still hasn't shipped. fuckers. 

    they ended up refunding the order but still sending the records. apparently a lot of people were pissed that they ordered during black friday and didn't get the order by christmas. 

  2. 1. QOTSA- In Times New Roman. A return to form after their last album that was somewhat disappointing. Took a few listens to sink in but it's very good. 

    2. Night Beats- Rajan. Back to their roots with some excellent psych rock. 

    3. Death Valley Girls- Islands in the Sky. Garage rock/psych. 

    4. Nude Party- Ride On. A little more mellow but still has the same 60's psych/garage sound happening. 

    5. Rodeo Boys- Home Movies. 90's throwback guitar rock. 

    6. Dropper- Don't Talk to Me. Power pop/rock 

    7. Crosses- Good Night, God Bless, I Love U, Delete. Deftones' dark wave cousin. 

    8. Ghost Woman- Hindsight is 50/50. Brooding psych rock. Heavier and darker than their previous releases. 

    9. Oh Sees-Intercepted Message. Catchy synth punk. 

    10. Yasawa Group- Enter the Chrysalis. Shiny indie guitar pop.  

  3. saw attic ted's christmas opera "mary's little secret" last night. my favorite austin christmas tradition. 

    mary's secret is that she cheated on joseph and made up the whole virgin birth thing. it's always entertaining watching people slowly realize what's going on and becoming increasingly offended.

    What is the music side of the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar like? I have never been actually, but thought I would go check it out and see Sue Foley, and see if there was anything I could not resist.  But damn I was looking at the list of artists and wondering if the venue is worth watching music in?  I know it's not Continental Club, but what is the vibe?  I love the idea of seeing some good music with a 7 pm start time.  Haven't seen C.J. Chenier and and the Red Hot Louisiana Band, and he closes Sunday after Shelley King and then Carolyn Wonderland each have earlier sets. But what is the stage area like?  I assume there are some adult beverages?  https://armadillobazaar.com/2023music/

    I have been wanting to see Henri Hebert at C-Boys, and Madam Radar for a full set, as well as some of the other earlier day bands. But is it too boring an environment to see more than just a band while you are shopping?

    just picture a stage in the middle of a holiday market and that's the vibe. they do sell alcohol and the majority of people are not there for the music.

  5. My face got melted
    That was a monster setlist. I was standing right next to the "first it giveth" guy. Fucking Mexicola too! Holy hell that was good. Spiritualized was pretty low energy but I enjoyed it, qotsa was just on another level entirely. Homme seemed like he was loving it. Glad we got a song for the dead closer, they didn't play it when I saw them a couple months ago...Jon Theodore is an absolute beast. Shit, the whole band was impressive. Might have been the best concert of the year for me.

    Dear Lord...what is the cooking process for that? I guess they smoke it and then fry it?  I wonder how much cooking the fryer does. Looks pretty good!

    yep, they showed the process on their instagram stories. looks like it's smoked, chilled, then fried. the breading had a nice crunch and then you got the good smoky flavor at the end. definitely a once a year type of meal.
