Finally getting around to some new music….

I have finally gotten around to getting some new music, and first and foremost, I really believe that the new Yeah Yeah Yeah’s album probably deserved lower than the 6.8 it received on Pitchfork, they were very lenient with them, I didn’t care all too much for the album…just a repeat of “Fever to Tell” and nothing new or it seems as if their sound hasn’t progressed….so is life, and I also just got —

Love is All–Think of Siouxsie and the Banshees on speed….
Tapes ‘n Tapes—Pavement never broke up, they just regrouped and relocated to Minneapolis
Elefant-Kind of the same issue w/the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, their new material sounds the same, but catchy nonetheless
Drive By Truckers-Gangstabilly never sounded so good!
Josh Rouse-good chillen Sunday music when you can’t fathom having another drink…
Band of Horses=My Morning Jacket

and I forgot to pick up the new T.I. and People in Planes, should be EXCELLENT…

On a movie note, I caught the new offering in Mexican Cinema, and I guess I should preface this, but I love Mexican Cinema, and this movie “Duck Season” or in Spanish “Temporada de Patos” was another coming of age movie, but the difference was that this movie , aside from not having any plot, showed what it is like to be a teenager in today’s times….the two main characters have a penchant for vids, and dedicate most of their time to playing Halo on Xbox…but one of the kids confesses to the female love interest about his curiosity in his best friend , but one of the only movies I have ever seen to ever tackle such a risque/taboo subject…
