Well....last night I ventured to a show in Providence at the AS220 featuring Hairy Dairy, Afrirampo, and Lightning Bolt. The show was decent, nothing spectacular, but still enjoyable nonetheless. Hairy Dairy started things off, playing only four songs. I would comment more about Hairy Dairy but I wasn't really listening to them, as I was sitting outside smoking a cigarette and talking to two...

I love ambient (dare I say it, post-rock) music. One of the best bands out there in this genre is **Sigur Ros**, from Iceland.

When listening to the self-titled, I can play it straight through, without ski...

Well...for those of you who enjoy the defunct band Orchid. Cheer Up! It wasn't until a few days ago until I really listened to Ampere, Will's post-Orchid band, and I have to say, "thumb's up".
