points of interest.
for one, um. My Old Kentucky Blog. Number one in my heart [as far as music blogs go], and there’s ample evidence in the past two days to prove it! The Donora video with the crazy hula hoop chick? The avett brothers’ session? Some super tunes on their radio playlist? New Islands single? And (finally) the Very Best + M.I.A. track? I found myself in a position to repost everything they have…but that would seriously defeat the purpose. So I’m giving you the ultimate gift…the link to heaven. It’s the gift that truly keeps on giving. and giving.
Okay and maybe I’ll put the Islands and the Very Best mp3s up.
The Very Best [ft. M.I.A.] - Rain Dance
PS. Islands at the Church 11/03. Heads up Philly.

two, I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry fat tears of dissapointment over Weezer’s newest album title, Raditude. I mean, I know it was named by Rain Wilson (or the man who most of the world knows as Dwight Shrute)…but…seriously? But then again, maybe that’s the problem…I mean, with phrases like bears beets battlestar galactica what can you expect? Guess it’ll depend on the actual music before any real substantial judgment can be passed. I mean, anything is better than that Beverly Hills shit.

four, okay. I can’t for the life of me decide if this is real or not. I mean, leave it to T + S to play an elaborate joke like this, but I’m seriously just not sure. Tegan would do something outstandingly bizarre. Like make her image in the photo a literal cut and paste.

luckily the track list doesn’t appear to be a photoshop hoax:

[thanks for the tip, EH]
*update*
bit of clarity, thanks to some internet scouring. back of the album looks like this, again gracias EH, which consequently makes me think of this, which subsequently makes me crave Sainthood to be something great. And that’s a definite possibility.
