Goldfrapp, Seventh Tree -- I think I'm about to go on a the-other-side-of-Goldfrapp binge (the more synthpoppy side). Oh, and in the car: Karnivool, Asymmetry

Those two and Stonehedge were my two favourites as well. Work It is like They Might Be Giants more instructional songs meets Lonely Island's sense of perversion. Three favourites. Four favourites (if you include WTFS).

I suspect the operator.

a new song by the Gathering -- it's really pretty

At its core, I don't think they're that different. I think what makes them seem so different are the apps that one uses the most. That said, I haven't used iOS in a few years. The difference between linux (Ubuntu) and Windows, on the other hand, remains large. I really like linux's ability to update everything through a common interface, whereas Windows' will only update Microsoft products. I think everything else is a case of familiarity.

Knucks' Macintop is kaput again, so we fill in until he back. Darth Vader, unicycling, playing bagpipes...

Damn, you got off lucky. Keep telling yourself: it could have been worse.

Fuck that was good. Completely over-produced deliciously. Now: Goldfrapp, Felt Mountain -- thanks for keying me in, Ian, for some reason I thought it was a recent trend, but it seems like they do this every couple albums, neh? Almost every other album, but they skipped one between Black Cherry and Supernature.

Suxorz. Sympathies. But on the bright side, you no longer have to dwell on which headphone gear to keep and which one to sell. If you were even considering selling it, sell it. Time to pare down anyway, neh? (Hint: just keep telling yourself that -- I call it brainwashing, but really you're just retraining the brain.) It's just stuff.

A Storm of Light, Nations to Flames, full album stream -- RIYL Land/Mind -era Ministry

Rest in Peace, oh maker of the blacker background.

I just meant it was different. I don't think I could rank one over the other -- when I'm in the mood for synthpop, this one won't cut it, and vice versa.

It's a bit of a leap from Supernature, innit? I do like it, though. They've got the whole Rat Pack era crooner thing locked up pretty tightly. Time to revisit Felt Mountain and Seventh Tree.

Listening to the new Goldfrapp.

I learned the phrase "refractory period". I knew what it meant before, I just didn't know there was a word for it. Words for it.

Lollers. Kimmel rawx. Even since his days on Teh Man Show. "Abolish Womens' Suffrage!" No. Am I the only one that noticed that they only made it longer, so that it fits in wherever you were going to put it less?

Roughly 50% of all people have below-average sized hands. And if they bifurcate, they should make the smaller one back to the old (iPhone 2, 3, 4) size.

Tangram, Lustbient -- great synthesizer instrumental music a la Tangerine Dream during their golden period.
