    Funeral Song by Minks

    Giving into the malaise, and listening to this.

    DMCA takedown requests are not cool. It’s just a blog post of a song from an album that is already widely leaked. Come the fuck on.

    L’Amour le jour by Le Couleur

    And this would be the complete opposite of the previous song.

  • I’ve been stuck listening to this in poor quality, but I think I can pass preliminary judgment. It’s good. I find myself listening to it all the time. I’d post an audio track, but I rather wait for higher quality files.

  • Ode on Melancholy by Keats.

     

    No, no! go not to Lethe, neither twist
    Wolf’s-bane, tight-rooted, for its poisonous wine;
    Nor suffer thy pale forehead to be kiss’d
    By nightshade, ruby grape of Proserpine;
    Make not your rosary of yew-berries,
    Nor let the beetle, nor the death-moth be
    Your mournful Psyche, nor the downy owl
    A partner in your sorrow’s mysteries;
    For shade to shade will come too drowsily,
    And drown the wakeful anguish of the soul.
    But when the melancholy fit shall fall
    Sudden from heaven like a weeping cloud,
    That fosters the droop-headed flowers all,
    And hides the green hill in an April shroud;
    Then glut thy sorrow on a morning rose.
    Or on the rainbow of the salt sand-wave,
    Or on the wealth of globèd peonies;
    Or if thy mistress some rich anger shows,
    Emprison her soft hand, and let her rave.
    And feed deep, deep upon her peerless eyes.
    She dwells with Beauty—Beauty that must die;
    And Joy, whose hand is ever at his lips
    Bidding adieu; and aching Pleasure nigh,
    Turning to poison while the bee-mouth sips:
    Ay, in the very temple of Delight
    Veil’d Melancholy has her sovran shrine,
    Though seen of none save him whose strenuous tongue
    Can burst Joy’s grape against his palate fine;
    His soul shall taste the sadness of her might,
    And be among her cloudy trophies hung.

    Interesting. Darker than I expected.

    Me and the Moon by the Drums

    Still torn about the vocals and what I think of the album, but worth a listen.
