indecisive
I keep meaning to update this little piece of the internet that I-- daresay?-- own, but the motivation always seems to rise up and dissolve into nothingness. It seems that the file hosting service I was previously using (or perhaps my account) went kaput and I am far too lazy to re-upload the songs.. or the images. Etcetera. Perhaps I'll pick back up again when school starts? Maybe I'll start a whole new blog all together? Who knows. I sure don't! All I can say is summer has been the makeshift rehab I needed, though I could have done without the extra weight everyone seems to pick up once they've gone back home from college. Emphasize on 'everyone,' because I sure as hell hope that I'm not the only one. I already have a couple of tracks I believe you (yes, you) would quite fancy. Everything depends on whether or not I have a) motivation to find a new hosting site, b) motivation to post during the semester, c) motiviation to stop eating (indefinitely), and d) a need for [something, perhaps a synonym, along the likeness of motivation] I hope summer has been great, fantastic, epic, even! Loves.

tUnE-YaRdS!!
Once in awhile we come across something so different that we can't help but become speechless when asked to talk about it. tUnE-YaRdS has that exact effect. I can't exactly decide on how to categorize Merrill Garbus' one-woman-band. Experimental? Oh, definitely something along those lines. There's an intimacy and rawness in every song of her debut album BiRd-BrAiNs. One of those creatives who just simply does not give a fuck and, because of this, manages to release something so strange and bizarre and beautiful. Haunting almost. These tracks aren't going to appeal to popular taste, but I find them to be worth a listen. If we're on the same page, you won't be able to stop listening to some of these tracks. And they will linger in the back of your head (especially when the track When You Tell the Lions), making you only want to listen to them again. Give it a go. It's something different and it sure as hell is working. All of these tracks were home-recorded... so all of you struggling musicians complaining about not having equipment have no excuses. This is going to be an indie gem, you can already tell right from the get-go. Catch her early on before she breaks into consciousness.
