SR VIII: Vander Got Run Over By A Reindeer!

My dinner was awesome by the way. I had a plate full of these mussels, I don't know what they were, but they were served in the shell covered in tasty cheese. I also had a plate full of various kinds of shrimp 'n' stuff, I don't remember what else.  Dinner took 2 hours, and my cousin in law is hot.

She is my cousin-in-law, so she's married. And no, I'm not in love with her. She already has a kid, hence the reason my uncle was up from Va., it's his first grandkid.

The preservatives and crap they put in the food does not agree with my stomach.

Krautrock was one genre that clicked with me instantly. It took a little longer to really appreciate RIO/Avant, but after that I almost instantly like every band I hear in that genre.

I don't have enough from the JR/F genre or Electronic really to say for sure, but they're both definitely up there for me as well.  I have a lot of straight jazz though, so I guess that can start to make up for my lack of oodles of JR/F.  And yeah, the Klaus Schulze box is only 64 hours of material, that's like 2 songs really.

Schrodinger's cat walks into a bar, and doesn't.

The funny thing is, I loved organized chaos, but Area's vocals are what sort of gets in the way.  I don't know, non-conventional vocals usually bug me.

Have you heard Koenjihyakkei? If you can listen to their vocals you can listen to almost anything.

Maybe what I meant to say was "dissonant" vocals.  Magma's vocals aren't really a turn off, because they are still harmonious with the music.  Some RIO artists' vocals, I feel, aren't as harmonious with the music.

Most of the time it isn't.

The vocals are the least of Mr Bungle's problems.

I hope Wobbler's Afterglow will at least get some consideration for album of the year, (even though I probably won't vote for it) it is definately one of the best this year.
