Meshuggah

One band I haven't seen and I'm regretting it. They have a new live dvd/cd coming out in February that looks like it could be good...



here is their latest effort obZen. It's ridiculous.

Minus The Bear EP

listen

2 new songs. I cannot wait for this album.

The New Deal

When this came out in 2001 it blew my mind. Progressive Breakbeat house music. These three dudes sound like a DJ mixing records, and they do it live with keys, bass, and drums. They don't play as much anymore. Merry New Deal Christmas.

Jack Rose - RIP

Last night I read that Jack Rose had died over the weekend from a heart attack. Jack was a Philadelphia native and an incredible musician. I saw him play a couple times and it was amazing how captivating he was for just a single person with an acoustic guitar. He was 38.

And here is Kensington Blues which was probably his best known album.
