So after spending the past two years or so in mourning after Reznor back-burnered Nine Inch Nails, I finally got up the courage to listen to How To Destroy Angels, and all I can say is
HOLY BALLS WANT MORE
It's like Ghosts... but with vocals. Hell yes.

Personally, I like The Four Postmen, though theirs is a very...specific and unique brand of humor. Also, Marc Gunn's album Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers, and it's follow up, Whiskers in the Jar, both had me giggling madly. Your mileage may vary in accordance with your relationship with cats.

I just figured out that for the past 2-3 years I've been mostly listening to Shining (swe). So much so that about 75% of the time, if the song that comes up on shuffle isn't Shining, I skip, and then later on manually select a Shining song.
I really need to find something new I'm willing to listen to.
So, far I'm excited about: The Black Keys, Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, Explosions in the Sky, Madness, the Rapture, the Horrors, Radiohead, Feist, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, St. Vincent, Flying Lotus, AWOLNATION, Azealia Banks, Buzzcocks, Kaiser Chiefs, tUnE-yArDs, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Justice, At the Drive-In, Florence and the Machine, La Roux, the Weeknd, and the Hives
The Black Lips a million times more so. (But after being kicked out of so many venues I don't know how they keep getting booked)
A festival seems like the worst place to see GY!BE. I'd love to see them in a club.
Saturday seems like the only day worth going to me, but I don't think going to SoCal is really feasible for me then. I went to Sasquatch last summer in the middle of a three week constitutional law class and I'll never do that again. (100% worth it though) I don't know the capacity for Cochella, but at Sasquatch there were a few side sets that weren't too crowded. My girlfriend and I had practically a private set with J. Mascis. But, there is way too much crowd fighting at the main stages for big festivals to become a thing I do much.
EDIT: I totally missed that Refused are back together and playing. I thought Refused were ******* dead!? OMG WANT
Dudes! This Handshake Band Has An Album And It's Awesome!

I am not brave enough to say something outrageous and be serious. You'll be happier if you assume I'm joking.
Stoats legit King Arthur by The Succubus.
Apparently Sabrepulse is back and kicking out some fresh jams.
Here is the first track of his new album; you can easily see the links to subsequent tracks on the EP as well, though I'm confused as to why it's an EP. It has eight tracks and I always thought that would place an album in the LP category...anyway, I digress. Give it a listen.

I will confess that I don't know the first difference between an opera and a musical, but Avenue Q is a work of magnificent, magnificent art regardless.
