Finally the move is over...now comes years of organizing and fixing things. All is well of course and its now time to get back into this blog....I apologize once again, its been a really busy couple months and between a new Wife, Dog and Home I havn`t had any time at all to put into this blog. Its even been awhile since I saw any good concerts. I did see Plants & Animals a couple weeks ago and they were mind blowing. The new music around here has [...]
Sorry I forgot to mention I`m in the middle of moving...See you in Sept...CN
Stereolab is one of those bands that have been in and out of my life since the late 90`s.....They have released 8 albums in their life span and I probably only paid attention to half. Album number 9 ( Chemical Chords ) is due out in Aug...I havn`t herd it yet, just a few tracks....Hopefully you will enjoy and let me know if you did...and I will do the same when I hear the whole thing...Now on to more important matters....Last night I somehow ended up watching The Rogers Cup (Womens Tennis).....which got me thinking..."Man there are [...]
So we finally get to hear a new track fromn Mike Skinner ....aka... The Streets ....Word on the street is that the new album is going back to sounding like Original Pirate Material .....This song doesn`t sound like OPM at all....but its still a decent track.... I also want you to check out the new single from The Faint ....very danclicious (if that`s even a word) and sounds very Geeky....In May 2008 The Faint announced that they had split from their long time home Saddle [...]
Margot & the Nuclear So and So's is an 8-piece indie-pop/orchestral pop band from Indianapolis, Indiana. The band's sound, categorized as "chamber pop", has been compared to the indie rock groups Arcade Fire, The Decemberists, and The Shins, while incorporating elements of singer/songwriters like Paul Simon and Conor Oberst. Their second full album, titled "Animal!" is currently in the works. They have a new EP ( The Daytrotter Sessions) that was recorded on June 2, 2008 in Rock Island Illinois......here`s a sneak peek.... Margot [...]

So last night was one of the most exciting events to happen in baseball.....the Homerun derby...Let`s face it the reason we all get MLB video games is so we can play the Home Run Derby...and watching it can be just as fun.....It would make a good drinking game....everytime the ball leaves the yard...ya drink!....It got me thinking though...Who has hit the longest homerun?...thanks internet! The answer to this question, which is a fact, is none other than Babe Ruth. The "Bambino" hit at least 650 ft. (it has not been determined the [...]
There is a Band Of Horses set floating around the net....which I grabbed...Its the Glastonbury set....Not too bad, if you listen really loud and wear head-phones....CN Band Of Horses @ Glastonbury 08

I asked her what kind of music she`s been into lately and she said.......................... MGMT - Electric Feel (Justice Remix) Black Kids - Hurricane Jane Oxford Collapse - Electric Arc [...]
Two artists that you must check out today.....The first one is a great little indie/pop band from Vancouver called Cinderpop ... I`ve had the album " A Lession In Science " for the last couple months and it hasn`t left my ears....Sweet catchy harmonies and uptempo melodies is what Cinderpop brings...kinda what you`d expect from a band named Cinderpop .... Regardless, Please check the new album out, its one of my favourite albums I`ve herd this year and [...]
Looking forward to the new Beck album....I had my first swallow of Modern Guilt and I likey so far....I`m loving Cat Power on a few tracks too...Interesting cover... are those Becks shoes??? For some reason it reminds me of the last Thrills album cover..... It has the same feel to me....Simple text with a random black and white photo.... Voxtrot did it too a few years ago with an EP.... [...]
I must admit I`ve been on a streak lately......last week I recieved a package in the mail containing my new Zune .... Thanks to the wonderfull people at Microsoft ...I am now the proud owner of an 8 gig Zune ....and so far its kicking ass in my books...Not only does it hold twice the songs that my iPod did, but the software is pretty user friendly and easy to add songs...Plus you don`t loose all that audio (like an iPod that converts the mp3 into I love [...]
Cito`s Back......Can you say Kick Ass?? Not Kick Ass......R.I.P. George Carlin Fun Photos taken from..... Pixdaus Random Music....CN A League Of There Own - All American League [...]
4 popped collars!!!...come on that`s hilarious!..... Girl Talk anyone?...CN Girl Talk - Shut The Club Down Girl Talk - In Step
I think I could make it! I was super excited for the new N.E.R.D. album last week....and was not super excited after my first listen...The single is pretty much the worst song these ears have ever herd....."All the girls standing in the line for the bathroom......" Really?.... Pharrell what happened man?...Are people actually going to crazy for this at the clubs?....anyways the rest of the album isn`t that bad, and there`s a few tracks worth checking....But don`t bother with the Everyone Nose ! [...]
The damn Euro Cup has got me hooked on Soccer lately....Seems like everyday I`m watching the games, and actually paying attention to the scores...I can`t believe the Italians beet the French yesterday...Its funny cause I don`t remember the Euro Cup being this exciting in 2004...and I love it this year...I don`t have a favourite team (although I did cheer for Italy yesterday) Just the pure excitement of the tournament is addicting! .....also I`m looking for a home in the London area....Got any ideas??...Get in touch with me!! [...]
The new Fleet Foxes LP...is totally amazing, and right up my alley...There is quite a buzz that`s surrounding this band since the drop of their EP (Sun Giant) in February....They sound a little like Band Of Horses (minus the rock)...must be something in the Seattle water...I love it..... Also the new Weezer album is kinda good....I gave up on Weezer a few years ago, I think it was right around The Green Album period....but I thought I would give The Red Album a try, [...]
Wow...Finally a friggin post...after Months of nothing...!!! Totally sorry for that, I just felt it was nessasary to take a little break...So I got Married , which was amazing.....Both the ceremony and the Party...and of course the Honeymoon was fantastic....All of it when by soo fast, I have a hard time believing that it all happened.....It did though, and now its time to get back to normal life... Obviously while I was on vacation I listened to a whole heap of new music...Some of it good and some of it is total shit...My job will [...]
