Ahhhh, Dark Spots

Movie Night 7-25-07
If you're a semi-intelligent adult, you know how retarded Harry Potter is. This movie IF... is a pretty cool, confrontational, anti-harry potter. 1968. Set in an oppressive English boarding school, malcolm mcdowell has no respect for his pedophilic superiors. Slow moving, but with enough stylistic twists and antisocial behavior to keep your interest. Unless you've been ruined by flying football games and booger flavored candy. Dementors. So stupid, man.

First and foremost, Killer Buds is gonna be back in kick butt form after my mis-hit. Symphony No. 3 may actually be my favorite of the albums chosen so far (up there with Black Saint,) but few shared my interest. Clif has jumped in to fill a void, and chosen an album that sounds really interesting. Check it out. Seriously, if you want to take part in that, let me know. I can put you in the picks schedule, or if that's too much pressure, I can mail you a copy of the album of the week. That is so nice of me.

James Blackshaw is a British guitarist whose album The Cloud of Unknowing has been growing on me like crazy. Somewhat similar to some other guitarists I like, Fahey and Kottke, but a little more full sounding, with a definite bent toward the minimalists, like Steve Reich and Terry Riley. Even K liked this one. Try to find it. It's like a rainstorm in july. Oh, according to his myspace page he likes herzog and jodorowsky.
