NMT 125

OUr pick this week is a good ol fashion funtime, rock n roll supergroup. Dude from Queens of the Stone age, Dave Grohl from Nirvana and Foo Fighters (and sometimes QOTSA) and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin. This album has been out for a while, but I just recently picked it up since I'm lazy and it just hit the Amazon daily deal. Mostly, that second one.

I haven't heard too much of the QOTSA, so it may sound a lot like their stuff, but it's got Dave Grohl and JPJ, so it's cool. It is really good and reminds you that Dave Grohl was an amazing drummer before he stood in front of the mike.


SO, from, well, different places really:


Them Crooked Vultures - "New Fang":





Bonus tracks:


You ever realize there's a cd you just forgot you had and then you hate yourself (more) for not having it to listen to this whole time? This was my recent find.
And I've found that nothing moves a work day along like some Crowded House.







I Miss the 90's:

Highly over-looked.

Constance: I totally support you.

Constance's girlfriend: You do realize that; if this all works out and you get to go to prom, you're pretty much going to have to put out. I mean, we're talking a little more than $200 tickets, a limo and food. Girl had to make a Federal case out of it. Do the right thing.


Our pick this week is the second band from the singer of one of the greatest bands of our time (and one that I, inexplicably, didn't get into until later. No idea.) This band had a different feel than his original one and represented his eclectic musical taste; Reggae, ska -real ska, not that fake No Doubt, Save Ferris crap- world music, and even old school rap (Magnificent Seven was him trying to do his own rap). Not that his first band didn't, this one, being on his own, perhaps did more so. He had a radio show that I've heard clips from and it was all over the place and wonderful.

"People can anything they want to...it's time to take the humanity back into the center of the ring and follow that for a time...without people; you're nothing"


From London, England:

Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros - "Tony Adams":




Bonus Tracks:

This song has been a favorite on my Ipod recently. You can compare the version from the movie Control here (which is the actors playing and singing themselves).






Someone once asked her what she thought were the best lyrics she ever wrote. This was her answer.


Cowboy Junkies - "Misguided Angel":
