Damn you Damon Albarn…

You are destroying my music listening enjoyment. Ever since I’ve stumbled upon the new Gorillaz album streaming on NPR everything else has been bland, tasteless and just fucking boring.

Cut Copy: nope

Daft Punk: nope

I’ve even tried to mix it up; Fanfarlo, Edward Sharpe, Eddie Bo, Funkadelic, Bat for Lashes, Wilco: nope

The only things to come close to the texture of “Plastic Beach” is Yeasayer (All Hour Cymbols) and Yeah Yeah Yeahs (It’s Blitz!). They are the only reason I haven’t already listened to your new stuff 10 times in two days.

Anyway…damn you for destroying what is normally a full day of enjoying music. Hopefully this is just temporary.

Lastly, thank you for putting out music that continues to raise the bar. I don’t say this for most albums, but I will be putting money towards this one.

I'm Jake Simms, originally from Kansas, living in New York, working at the growing Sanborn Media Factory, and this is where I drop some random bits of information. Chances are, there will be no common theme for posts...so here we go.

I initially started this site as a way to live blog a road trip to Montreal that involved a 12-passenger van, 7 friends, and a lot of weird. The trip ended, but cleanliness remains. You can subscribe via RSS.
