Vex Appeal

Uff the coff

I'm so glad I live in a world where this exists:



But the warm-happies are subdued somewhat by this sort of thing:



I've been listening to In Rainbows. It's pretty good, but I'm not getting all that much from it yet... to my uneducated ear, it's sort of a poor man's The Eraser. Experience has taught me that it'll inevitably become my most favourite thing ever after further listening.

PSFK has a post that neatly encapsulates my thoughts on record labels: they'll end up being like venture capital firms for musicians. That is to say, I don't think they'll die, because I think they have useful things to offer (cash, connections, power, etc) although organic and self-sustaining growth will become not just a possibility for bands, but, in many cases, the prudent and sensible option.

I visited the bog bodies exhibition in the National Museum of Ireland when in Dublin recently.. it's really cool, definitely recommend it if you get the chance!
