So after a hellish week of not having internet, all is well again. I had a bit of a "Welcome Back Wireless Connection" celebration, which basically consisted of downloading a whole bunch of shit onto my computer. Mostly music, but also 4 seasons of the Justice League. How awesome was that show, right? :)
Which brings me to my next point: I have decided that I am going to do some spring cleaning for my music collection, which currently stands at 34.13 GB, and 22.39 GB of it has never been listened to! I think I have a problem of keeping too much music I don't like, in hopes that it will grow on me, because some music is like that. I’m especially reluctant to delete bands that receive a lot of hype, since I can’t help but feel that there is something I’m missing that allows everybody except me to appreciate it. But this ends today, or sometime in the near future! So I hereby vow to give a fair listen to the following bands, and if I still don’t like them, to the Recycle Bin they go. Regardless of what all the music critics in the world think.
1) The Decemberists
2) Bright Eyes
3)
4) Arctic Monkeys
5) Architecture in
6) Band of Horses
7)
8) Au Revoir Simone
9)
10) Broken Social Scene
11) Dinosaur Jr.
12) Drive-By Truckers
13) Eels
14) The Flaming Lips
15) Hot Hot Heat
16) Husker Du
17) Metric
18) The Residents
19) Sonic Youth
20) The Soviettes
21) Sunny Day Real Estate
22) Tunng
23) The Unicorns
24) Vampire Weekend
Was that necessary, enumerating all of them? I’m sure you don’t think so. Admittedly, when I started, I didn’t think it would be such a long list. If I legitimately obtained all my music, I’d be pretty unnecessarily broke.
