sailing through the sonoran.

picked this up the other night from a tiny hole in the wall mercado here in seattle, & just had to share it. chalino sánchez is a goddamn champion around these parts. he has the voice of a golden throated caracara & his songs speak to the depths of the soul. if you haven't listened to the last album i posted of his then don't sleep & grab both.

propagation of civilization.

gorgeous songs about guns, violence, & the fast life sung by a man with the voice of an angel.

a picture postcard.

a mid nineties comp of the who's who of the creme de la creme of indie rock/emo. i listened to this so much, and had a few of the actual seven inches that comprised this comp. sometimes i get really sad i sold off most of my collection via ebay & skylab (does anyone even remember that website?). if you were ever into jade tree, polyvinyl, crank, or caufield, then grab this & grab yr old cardigan & horn rimmed glasses & get ready to shed a few tears.
