Bonnie 'Prince' Billy ftw


I admit I was a latecomer to Will Oldham. I once was deaf, but now I can hear.

I picked five of my favorites, only to realise they were all the second track on their respective release. Funny that.

Available on Blue Lotus Feet (1999)

Avril à Paris


I got two reasons to post this song:

1. It's good.
2. It's April.

Too bad I'm not in Paris, would've made a killer third reason.

(mp3) Frank Sinatra - April in Paris
Available on Come Fly With Me (1958)

These Friday mixes are usually reserved for my metal blog, though in the past I've posted them here instead when I busy doing my list of the top 30 albums of the 90s and the one with the top 30 albums of the 00s.

I'm waiting for the man

Motives changing
Day to day
The fire increases
Mask decay
I look at the river
White foam floats down
The bodys poisoned
Gotta sit tight

The wait

After awakening The silence grows
The screams subside
Distortion shows
Mutant thoughts of bad mouthed news
It's just another birth of distorted views
