tuesday

a day late on this, mostly because i work now and am currently house sitting.

now that i work friday through monday (i'm having a hard time adjusting to that), one awesome thing is that new albums come out on what's essentially my saturday. i don't have to work, i get to go to the record store at my leisure (or early in the morning if i am super excited), and have three days off of work to enjoy the new albums.

anyway, what's out this week? it's tuesday...today.

MUSIC
*beck - modern guilt (vinyl). i held off on this for the vinyl release. so now i'm excited. it comes with the free download, you know. and it's 180 gram virgin vinyl! yes! as far as the musical content goes, i haven't even really listened to it and you probably have, so you tell me.
*paul weller - 22 dreams. dude's the man! also includes guest contributions from noel gallagher and graham coxon. i recommend getting it here.
*brian jonestown massacre - just like kicking jesus ep
*david bowie - live in santa monica '72
*css - donkey. you know, i really am getting in the mood for some party music so...

VIDEO
*high and low - kurosawa + criterion
*vampyr - dreyer + criterion!
*spaced - the complete series. this has been on my netflix queue for awhile. the team behind shaun of the dead and hot fuzz! i'm pretty excited about this one.
*21. no idea if this is any good but i need to rent it for the lcd soundsystem song.

that's it. there's plenty to be interested in here. top picks are spaced, high and low, and beck. although i hear good things about the paul weller.
