debs: (Release [Music])
[personal profile] debs
There are times when I get bored with music. I don't want to listen to anything I own, and everything just seems like the same tired stuff that's been playing on the radio since forever. Even bands/albums that I've loved since I first heard them become old-hat, which is depressing.

And then I'll buy a new album by a band with whom I'm not overly familiar, and something will click inside, and I'll remember why I love music.

The song for today is by Okkervil River, from their new album The Stand-Ins. I came late to the party in terms of this band, but I want to live in Stand-Ins and it's predecessor, The Stage Names. Whenever I hear these albums now I will think of driving south through the mountains.

I recently got the fire.fm add on thing for Mozilla, and it takes my fave artists and selects music to play on my browser that it thinks I might like. I can tailor it a bit more by specifying which songs I love and which should be banned, but I'm listening to stuff I haven't listened to in ages, and hearing artists I wouldn't normally have done.
