Hottest Songs of 2007: (so far)
"the prayer" - bloc party
"back to black" - amy winehouse
"no cars go" - arcade fire
I am totally open and willing to hear better and more brilliant original ditties. |

Having listened to all of NEON BIBLE a few times, I can agree with Ehle and Marc. Would see them in concert if they happen to pass through Utah.
And for the metalcore crowd, Killswitch Engage is equally as good in concert as they are on record. Movielover and I went to the show last night here in Salt Lake and survived without too many bruises and bumps from being at the front the of stage (over to the right by 10 people). |

I don't wanna work in a building downtown,
no I don't wanna work in a building downtown
I don't know what I'm gonna do,
'cause the planes keep crashing,
always two by two.
I don't wanna work in a building downtown,
No I don't wanna see when the planes hit the ground.
I don't wanna work in a building downtown,
I don't wanna work in a building downtown,
Parking their cars in the underground,
Their voices when they scream, they make no sound.
I wanna see the cities rust
and the trouble makers riding on the back of the bus
Dear God, I'm a good Christian man,
In your glory, I know you understand,
That you gotta work hard and you gotta get paid,
My girl's 13 but she don't act her age.
She can sing like a bird in a cage,
Oh Lord, if you could see her when she's up on that stage!
You know that I'm a God fearing man,
You know that I'm a God fearing man,
But I just gotta know if its part of your plan
To seat my daughters there by your right hand
I know that you'll do what is right, Lord.
For they are the lanterns, and you are the light.
Now I'm overcome,
By the light of day.
My lips are near but my heart is far away.
Tell me what to say,
I'll be your mouthpiece!
Into the light of a bridge that burns
As I drive from the city with the money that I earned.
Into the dark of a starless sky,
I'm staring into nothing and I'm asking you why:
Lord, will you make her a star?
So the world can see who you really are.
Little girl, you're old enough to understand,
That you'll always be a stranger in a strange, strange land.
The men are gonna come while you're fast asleep,
so you better just stay close and hold on to me.
If my little mocking bird don't sing,
Then daddy won't buy her no diamond ring.
Dear God, would you send me a child?
Oh God, would you send me a child?
'Cause I wanna put it up on the TV screen,
so the world can see what your true word means.
Lord would you just send me a sign?
'Cause I just gotta know if I'm wasting my time!
Now I'm overcome,
By the light of day.
My lips are near but my heart is far away.
Now the war is won,
How come nothing tastes good?
You're such a sensitive child!
Oh, you're such a sensitive child!
I know you're tired but it's alright,
I just need you to sing for me tonight.
You're gonna have your day in the sun;
You know God loves the sensitive ones.
Oh! My little bird in a cage!
Oh! My little bird in a cage!
I need you to get up for me, up on that stage,
and show the men that you're old for your age.
Now ain't the time for fear,
But if you don't take it, it'll disappear.
Oh! My little mockingbird sing!
Oh! My little mockingbird sing!
I need you to get up on that stage for me, honey,
And show the men it's not about the money.
Wanna hold a mirror up to the world
So that they can see themselves inside my little girl.
Do you know where I was at your age?
Any idea where I was at your age?
I was working downtown for the minimum wage.
And I'm not gonna let you just throw it all away.
I'm through being cute, I'm through being nice,
Oh tell me, Lord, am I the Antichrist?!

motown noir 
Wade......I blame you for my not being able to get that Rehab song out of my mind. Is the album more like that or like the Back to Black song?
I am totally hung up on Antony and the Johnsons...... |

Bets -- the album is the bomb. Me and my best friend drove all around Manhattan listening to it after the Bloc Party show last night. It's only $7.99 on iTunes and I have been gifting it like crazy. Amy Winehouse is the shit y'all. Damn.

I like the song The Prayer! I love the song No Cars Go! I was a little dissapointed by the new Bloc Party album though. I like it but it just wasn't their best album. I think Silent Alarm was a lot better. |

Killswitch Engage was very good live! Dragonforce was very good too! |

| Recently I got three cds I've wanted for a while. The cds I got were COSTELLO MUSIC-THE FRATELLIS, YOURS TRULY, ANGRY MOB-KAISER CHIEFS, and MYTHS OF THE NEAR FUTURE-KLAXONS. They are great albums!! My favorite songs off of the Fratellis album are Chelsea Dagger, Flathead, Baby Fratelli, The Gutterati?, and Vince The Loveable Stoner. My favorite songs off of the Kaiser Chiefs album are Ruby, The Angry Mob, Retirement, My Kind Of Guy, and Thank You Very Much. My favorite songs off of the Klaxons album are Atlantis To Interzone, Gravity's Rainbow, Golden Skans, Magick, and Four Horsemen Of 2012. I would recommend all these albums! Great albums with very catchy, danceable songs! |

I know i don't post here often enough, but i wanted to list some of my faves from 07 so far. If any of you guys are not familiar with the following names, check them out. Some are already out, some will be real soon and some are promos and/or leaks. The list:
Dean & Britta - Back Numbers
If you loved Luna (especially their later period stuff) and the quiet side of Galaxie 500 this should be your cup of tea. Just like their previous solo collaboration, it deals mostly with sultry, sexy duets. Quiet, and if i may say so, pretty album. A very sensual piece of work.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Baby 81
A return to rocking after the acoustic Dylan/Cash tinged Howl, this one combines all the previous detours they've taken in their musical career. Not their strongest but still a good album and if the labels do their homework, their easiest to "sell".
The National - Boxer
I just love this band. While it has no Mr. November or Lit Up and it is closer to Sad Songs than Alligator, it is a great, mature record.
Dungen - Tio Bitar
Another band i really like. They had their 15 minutes with the last album so you might have heard of them. This one, like all their work, sounds like a bunch of swedish longhairs jamming in '72 were taped only for the reels to have been found in some archeological dig after being lost all this time. I have a low tolerance threshold for "wankery" and prog, but this stays clear of that and i dig.
Sister Vanilla - Little Pop Rock
The whole JAMC reunion puzzles me. Yeah i am happy that is happening, but did they ever really go away? I got the Freeheat CD last year which was one of the Reids plus the JAMC bass guy with half the Gun Club. That was about 5 years of worth of work there. Then there's this Sister Vanilla CD which is a collection of songs worked on for a decade and includes Lurie and both Reids. All tracks are sung by the Reid's sister (the Vanilla in the name). Less feedback overall and sunnier than most JAMC, but i bet that if you liked Sometimes Always, Some Candy Talking and Just Like Honey, you will very likely have this one on heavy rotation soon.
Fields - Everything Last Winter
I've seen this described as shoegazey and i don't think it realy is (unlike, say last year's Engineers). It is a damn good album in any case. I actually hear more of a C86 thing going on (i am aware there is some overlap). A nice collection of not-too-loud stuff that still manages to rock out.
Dinosaur Jr. - Beyond
Return of the band from the 90s, original lineup and all. It doesn't feel awkward at all (aural antidote for the Stooges' latest) and i was really missing that fuzzed out guitawr.
Cut City - Exit Decades
Could be easily lumped in the Uncut/Interpol/Editors camp, but while that comparison might initially work for these Swedes (and obviously bringing up Ian Curtis and Co.), they also have traces of the Chameleons, Comsat Angels, Echo and The Bunnymen and a lot of other bands.
Bell Hollow - Sons Of The Burgess Shale
EP from a NYC band in the same vein as Cut City. Shows a lot of promise for their debut, whenever that drops. Slightly poppier than Cut City though.
Grinderman - Grinderman
Nick Cave, Warren Ellis and a streamlined version of the Bad Seeds. Rocking, garagey, horny, dirty, edgy. Love this shit. Plus, regardless of what the press will say (they will ignore the softer side), there are some good ballads in there. But yeah, mostly mean mean mean rock on this one.
Other stuff that might make the list eventually (or that i got into at the very end of 06 and might not technically qualify :P )
Howling Bells - Howling Bells
The Besnard Lakes - ...Are The Dark Horse
Voxtrot - Voxtrot
Cold War Kids - Robbers & Cowards
Earl Greyhound - Soft Targets
Calla - Collisions
Bloc Party - Weekend In The City
Modest Mouse - We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank
Shins - Wincing The Night Away
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
Chetes - Blanco Fácil
Cerati - Ahí Vamos
Pop Levi - The Return To Form Black Magick Party
Uncut - Modern Currencies
The Two Koreas - Altruists
Nassau - Machines To Paradise
As usual, check out the LastFM profile if you feel like it. You'll find samples in there. ( www.last.fm/user/juepucta )

I also got that trio recently, at the same time as well. The Fratelli's i like. But i have to give it more time to see how it "ages". The Klaxons i liked less and left me a bit unimpressed. The Kaisers' disc really dissapointed me.
If you like the Fratellis, check out the View. I believe they have an album that is just as good as last year's Arctic Monkeys (sophomore release from them should be out anytime now).
Also based on you liking the Klaxons, check out the latest Cooper Temple Clause (their third), Make This Your Own. Same combination of rocking and light electronic elements. Only better achieved, in my honest opinion. Their debut is amazing by the way.
Ok, no more rambling from me. At least for now.
10-4!
