All this love is making me get all weepy!

Since we're piling on the love…

Both of those made it on my year end list.  Your stuff usually does Nate.  Fucking love Doomriders...

[derivative666]

[emceeQ]

Not in any particular order, but here is a preliminary list of what has stuck with me from this year…

Converge - All Love we Leave Behind
Joyce Manor - Of All Things I Will Soon Grow Tired
Old Man Gloom - No
Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d. city
Neurosis: Honor Found in Decay
Blut Aus Nord - 777 - Cosmosophy

Vattnet Viskar – Vattnet Viskar EP

Witch Mountain - South of Salem

Favorite re-release
Kid Brother Collective - Highway Miles.  This one's kinda special, was randomly given this CD at some show quite a few years ago and it's always stuck with me.  Great album by some dudes from Flint, MI. One of my friends (http://www.lansingscene.com/lprecords/) decided to re release it vinyl, plus I get the chance to see them play in a few days!  It's also streaming at punk news I believe for those interested…

My best discovery of the year goes to the LA Gemstones: Pop and Rock Compilations.  A whole bunch of great 60's pop and rock (http://crystalsphere1.blogspot.com/search/label/V%2FA%20-%20L.A.%20Gemstones)

and then there's my guiltiest pleasure of the year, which is Ke$ha's Warrior.

A little disjointed, but I think that about does it…

good list!

I just want to take a moment to say Godspeed, Mike Scaccia. Mike was the guitarist of Ministry and Rigor Mortis, and for a few years, he was the Gibson Guitar rep when I worked at Guitar Center. He died on stage last night. He was a super great dude, and had some great stories, and was a killer guitarist as well. Bummer.

[riffblaster general]

for real???? awful news.  so sad to read that.

[xtcclassic]

Had a seizure in the middle of a Rigor Mortis show in Ft. Worth at a club called The Rail. Told the light guy to turn off the strobes and then collapsed. Unbelievable.

[derivative666]

Just got my fix.

[riffblaster general]

Oh gosh. I'm sorry ahead of time.

loving this album

[bubbapest]

Can't stop listening to Devil Makes Three's self titled album.  It goes straight into Do Wrong Right which doesn't disappoint, but it's not as good IMO.

Listened to a lot of Megadeth today while at work.  Nothing says programming like Dave Mustaine?

Rounded out the day with Queen on the commute home.
