Music to keep me from murder.

I've been watching a lot of Dexter lately thanks to a renewed Netflix account and an antisocial sort of life. Not antisocial, just situational-socio-isolation. Whatever. But I'm really liking it. It is more intelligent than I thought - that name, Dexter, just threw me off. Anyhow, I really like the idea that he is supposedly "pretending," all the time - to be human. Every person who has ever done a little reflection has probably considered the idea. I work in customer service - and it really deads-my-head some days. Empty, phatic expressions uttered 300 times a day - leaving one to wonder what is said in earnest and when auto-pilot is on. Nods and waves and how-do-you-dos.
Some of those days - I just need to come home, go into my room, shut the door, and listen to this stuff. I hope you enjoy it.

Man is the Bastard








Here is another album dug out of my boxes of discarded teenage memorabilia. My boyfriend picked this one up years and years ago. Most of my CDs don't last very long (I HATE compact disc format). This one survived though - and I'm glad. I'm sure there aren't too many floating around.

Man is the Bastard was a band that pioneered the Power Violence genre. This whole album is funny while at the same time making you wanna throw your beer bottle against the wall and smash your hand through a glass coffee table. Yeah. You can find out more about them here or here at their myspace.
