Music This Week 003: Hawksley In Town

Mr. Workman (seriously, is this the guy's real name) is in town this week. I didn't really enjoy Meat all that much, but I knew I wouldn't. I knew that Hawksley was getting wierder and wierder and there was nothing much anyone could do about that. I mean why do you think Tegan and Sarah stopped having their albums produced by him and moved over to Ben Gibbard and Hunter from AFI? I think to be able to suggest someone else's music to have mass appeal, you have to have mass appeal yourself.

But the point isn't necessarily always about having mass appeal, of course.

I know that I abandoned music this week last week (yeah I said it) but for a good cause. Basically, the PS network was down, and you weren't supposed to use your playstation. So instead I made a tape. That person I made the tape for will be coming with me on Sunday evening to see the man himself who has broken so many hearts...or something. I wonder who's opening?

This week, I thought I'd include something from Meat, along with some other selections I've been listening to.

1. Songs For Sarah Jane - Hawksley Workman - Meat 2010
2. Golden Years - Disco Ensemble - Back On The MF Street 2009
3. The Weight - Thrice - Beggars 2009
4. Spanish Handshake - The Bronx - The Bronx III 2008
5. Wolves - Machine Head - The Blackening 2007

A lot more highway driving for me now, therefore, a lot more stuff I can cruise to. Add these to your playlist, and enjoy!
