No-Fi

Some days I’m amazed by the amount of missing data in history. What would Joan of Arc’s Twitter feed look like? “Just slayed six douchers, the last one’s last act was to burp.” ¶ “God whispered new coordinates this morning. We move in an hour.” ¶ Et cetera. ¶ Everyone’s a celebrity now, sort of, and that’s probably okay. We’re all more conscious of the world around us, the moments that make it what it is; future generations will have volumes upon volumes of statistics and first-hand accounts to learn from. ¶ I think our attention spans will find ways to adjust. Mine is, I think. I feel on most days I can focus on numerous things at once. ¶ Since the end of 2006 I’ve been writing an album. Two complete songs have emerged but procrastination has delayed the attainment of musical abilities beyond humming. ¶ I hope to put out my first single within the next two years, but I’m not promising anything. ¶ Speaking of music, Rise Against has a new thing, a “Digital 45″ called Grammatizator. 21st Century hi-fi to match my intentions of no-fi takeover. Lovely news for the morning. ¶ The other albums I bought today are: The Specials’ The Specials; She & Him’s Volume One; No Age’s Losing Feeling; The Raveonettes’ In and Out of Control; Pearl Jam’s Backspacer; and Girls’ Album. The guy in Girls grew up in a religious sex cult and befriended a billionaire. Did you know that? Seems like someone I can relate to. Also digging this band I dug up called Limits of Approach right now. Their album is called Hands Tied and it is cheap. Seek it out and purchase it, support the underground or something. I was not paid for this endorsement.
