Audio Nostalgia: Creeper Lagoon


Here is another song from another album that reminds me of a very specific time in my life. Oh, 1998 was a very good year. I got my first post-college 'real' job and decided almost immediately that I was going to hate it. I was right.

But I would trudge on through the days(which turned into years), come home and open a beer and put on records like Creeper Lagoon's 'I Become Small And Go' and let all of the pent up stress of my new cubicle dwelling, 8-5 kinda life had thrust upon on me just wash away. Listened to this for the first time in a long time today...still sounds great.

Creeper Lagoon - 'Dear Deadly' MP3

My ode to mass transit

So...on Monday of this week I risked life and limb and hopped on the city bus to trek downtown for the Swell Season show(which was again, absolutely incredible). Anyone knows that such a trip can not be made without a weapon of mass distraction - an mp3 player. I mean one must supply one's own soundtrack to the festival of sights that ONLY a long city bus voyage can bring to light - streetwalkers, drug addicts, shady characters in all shapes and sizes - and that's just ON the bus, we don't have the time to get into what was happening on the actual streets.

Anway, here are a handful of songs that popped up via the shuffle mode during my ride that I hadn't heard forever and felt obligated to post...enjoy:

Rilo Kiley - 'The Frug' MP3

Buffalo Tom - 'My Responsibility' MP3
