while doing my standard scanning of newsgroups tonight, i spotted the new Radiohead album. hmmm, okay, i'll download it, but untill they start rocking like Creep or Paranoid Android, i don't give a fuck about them. scrolling down i see

...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead - The Secret of Elena's Tomb EP

here's kinda what the thought process went like. some of it was said outloud:

holy fuck! i don't have to wait till Tuesday! holy fuck! the motherfucking trail of dead! holy fuck! download download! what? downloading radiowho? ABORT! ABORT! start trail of dead download NOW! aaaaah downloading without obstruction. hmm track 1 is done, should i start listening to it right now? but what if i start playing it and track 2 isn't finished yet? all continuity will be lost! *falls to knees* i'll have ruined it all! oh no! what do i do?
here, i think i blacked out for about 2 minutes. when i regained unconsciousness i saw that the album had finished downloading. ah, sweet sweet trail of dead. eases the pain. i think i'm happy.

i went thru a similar experience:

holy fuck, pinder has the new trail of dead! i'm so excited! it's been 20 seconds why isn't the whole cd finished downloading! curse pinder's slow (but not really) connection! oh my god, oh my god oh my god!

Okay, so I've been listening to the "new Radiohead album". Have you listened, Pinder? There's some rock. And it's motherfucking. Listen to it. Do it. Now. [poke]

i tried! i really did! i got up to track 6, and only track 1 had rocked. the rest seems like okay background music, but it's not music i'd listen to in my car. his voice just sounds so fucking boring sometimes. i'm not really in a mood for that lately. this week i want rock with balls! give me turbonegro or trail of dead or fantomas or yeah yeah yeahs!
