  1. For those of you who haven't figured it out yet, The Donnas rock. Neo-post-punk chick band.
    Two-minute-thirty songs. 70's rock riffs. What's not to love?

    Now go ride.

    The Donnas. Bah.

    Go here and download "Lullabye/Pet": cereboso.comapc.html

    And if you're into DC rock, run don't walk (riding is allowed) to a Q and not U show. They're like -
    in ten words or less - an enthusiastically playful yet political younger version of Fugazi.

    Also, Coheed and Cambria is back on tour - but they're not exactly of the
    2:30 variety. They do, however, rule ass.

    What else can I offer? Um...Mercury Program, Faraquet, Lake Trout, Orbital makes for good XC riding
    music, Snapcase makes for good throw-yourself-off-stuff music.

    The Donnas. Don't they cover a Kiss tune? They're disqualified. The Donnas. Bah.

    Hee. Judas Priest too. One of the appealing things about the Donnas is that they tend to incense
    overly-serious punk aficionados. (Not that I would ever call the Donnas actually punk. More like
    bubblegum-punk...)

    Thanks for the links.

    "Turn 21" is in the CD player of my truck right now. I find them quite enjoyable, a stylish mix
    of The Ramones (lyrical content) and ACDC (guitar riffs). Chicks rock. I wonder if they are
    mountain bikers?

    Nope. Retro-indy is dead. The Vines, Hives, and Stripes can all go home now. Retro-Beatles Oasis has
    (have for you transoceanic types) been dead for a few years now. The Hip really never were.

    These days, the trend has to die for the music to live, or at least to be heard without the
    distractions of hype. I never really did see the point of Oasis, though.

    You missed "Fifty Mission Cap," then.

    Great transcendental music to ride with.

    IMO, they're the sorriest group ever! Right next to Bay City Rollers and The Beatles.....that's
    right I said Beatles, they really bow too!

    Oasis sucks. Oasis always sucked.

    You obviously never listen to Toronto radio ;-). Me, I've always thought The Hip were an
    underrated band. I've always really liked the song about Kurt Cobain being reincarnated as a sled
    dog. I mean, how

    They aren't bad. I've been listening to Taproot a bit lately and I like their stuff when in the mood
    for rockin. Others in recent rotation:

    Plastilina Mosh - Mexico City funk produced by Money Mark Pest - UK band. Lots of samples, funky
    hard-to-categorize. RJD2 - Samples and turntables. New school, baby! Radiohead - Still good. Been
    back into OK Computer lately. Great again after it got a much-needed rest. Medeski Martin & Wood -
    Always going in a different direction. Keepin' it fresh. Fishbone - been digging through some older
    CDs lately. They still sound great (the ska and the metal styles) Joseph Arthur - nice chillin'
    music. Kind of folky. Skerik's Syncopated Taint Septet - great new solo release form the mad
    scientist of Sax. Sounds a lot like Monk Octet, but with more of an edge.

    I agree on the Lake Trout comment. Those guys play a great live cover of War Pigs! Speaking of which
    I broke out Paranoid (Black Sabbath) the other day - it's still great (except for the production).

    Haven't been into the Dead in quite a few years. It just god old and tired (and in the way?) for me.

    Matt (so much music, so little time)

    Must investigate these "Dannas"

    Thanks, Bill The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the
    mind should give an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.
