NWA

sound : A Sight To Behold - Devendra Banhart

"But love it could be much better.... i know....."

betwixt all of this music of our present time and space lies freak folk.... also known as acid folk or more commonly, new weird america.....

what exactly is this "new weird america"?..... everything unclassifiable and folk but not merely folk, but also having hints of jazz, classical or even spoken word poetry recital is put under this huge umbrella-genre that is still way too misunderstood (for better, if you ask me).....

joanna newsum, devendra banhart, tortoise, jackie-o motherfucker (yes, that really is their name!), vibracathedral orchestra.... what is it that these people do that makes them stand out so?.... what makes their wails and moans the essence of a the modern musical movement (agreed they have had predecessors like dylan, cohen and even cat stevens) ?.... and why do we even bother to listen to their (almost always) lo-fi recirdings of mushrooms and gasoline and rainbows and walruses?....

is this the new punk?....

i think i'm in love with joanna newsom!

666

and what, you ask, does this have to do with anything?.... well, NOTHING!!!

ok... let me be serious here.... i'm stepping out of my "cocky i-know-it-all" ego de plume.... out of my "i-complain-a-lot-but-i-aint-emo"self.... let me get down and dirty here....

i'm fucking scared....

seriously...

i lost my job today... well, i didn't lose it, i got my ass fired.... and for what?... cos i wasn't "cut out for the job".... oh well,i could moan and bitch for a hundred thousand years about that..... but no, that is not what i'm worried about....

bills....

remember all the times i've always said i hate growing up?... well, this is exactly why.... truthfully, i live way beyond my means..... don't get me wrong, it's all planned and everything.... but yeah.... i believe in the best..... i buy good stuff, i eat good food, i get a few drinks from time to time.... but its always because i HAVE the money for it...... i have money for myself and i use my money for around the house.... i give my folks more than 75% of all the money i earn and i stil have enough to live happily on....

well, i have a $400 car payment on the 15th, an $80 phone bill on the 24th, a $500 and a $200 credit card balance..... and, well.... i have twenty three dollars and thirty six cents in my checking account and no source of income...

what the fuck am i going to do?...
