vintage

I apologise for missing last week’s Tunesday! By the time I realised, it was much too late to make up for it, so I decided to just wait until this one. Hope you haven’t been that sad about my silence lately (ha ha!).

Today’s tune is by Rogue Wave, a band I just can’t seem to get tired of. There’s something about their music that is slightly off the beaten track, and I love it. Their sound is very distinctive, and very captivating; this song, from their second album Descended Like Vultures, is one of my favourites. The slightly noisy crescendoes on the last word of each line in the verse … I love it.

I’m really bad at these track of the week write-ups, so let’s just hope that you decide to listen to it. Enjoy!

Tunesday 6: Bird on a Wire (not a Leonard Cohen cover!)

I will be back shortly with a couple of reviews. 2009 is starting off slow around here, but that’s mostly because I’ve been slothing around the house with nothing to do — the strike is coming to the end of the tenth week and my brain is beginning to fall out my ears.

If you’re in the Toronto area and find yourself with nothing to do tomorrow (Wednesday, January 14), Entire Cities are playing at the Tranzac (292 Brunswick) for Dwight Schenk’s CD release. The album is called Natural Disasters and I am on a track! Doors at 8, us at 9:30, and dear friends The Owle Bird shortly thereafter.
