You can call if you want to.

The new Sigur Ros comes out on Tuesday, even though you could stream and download the album from their website, I AM INCREDIBLY STOKED FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. The new Wolf Parade also came out recently and is quite stellar.

I saw Ladyhawk and The Constantines on Thursday and was quite good, despite being alone in 100+ person crowd surrounded by the hipster elite of the city and lots of very pretty people. Also, Lacey from Corner Gas was there and it was weird. I forgot how much The Constantines rock. They played like a 80 minute set of just rock and it was quite nice. But the sound guy fucked up Ladyhawk's mix and kind of killed it for me. People should not have to adjust their own levels on the amps, and still have the vocals be way to quiet and the guitars way too loud. But that's just me, though I think most people there would have agreed. I never really thought of people having their favourite band be The Constantines for some reason, but there were most certainly some of those people there. They all had that string tied around there hair...does anyone understand this? If yes, please explain.

Somehow I ended up in the park drinking coffee with quintessential stoners this after afternoon and it was a weird experience. They fit the stereotype so perfectly it kind of hurt. They were entertaining to watch either way.

How were the albums I posted? Yay, nay?

I love the changing picture. It's like how Pajiba does it.
