A few months ago, I was approached via e-mail by a band known as A Journey Down The Well to review their forthcoming album Sorry Monsters, I Have To Grow. Upon listening to it, I was frankly perplexed, and have been unable to produce a decent write-up of the work.So instead, I'll defer to Fred Bevan's review written for "The Silent Ballet". I think he more or less hits it right on the head.

After two flights, a layover, and no rest whatsoever, upon arriving in Florida yesterday my first and only instinct was to sleep for 13 hours.

What Kind of Music Do You Listen To?
Have you ever asked someone that question? I'm sure you have, and I know I have on many, many occasions. It's the most common ice-breaker we use to initiate conversation and begin relationships. The funny thing about it is, we ask this question, and we usually get the same answer every time! You might be at work with a new co-worker and the jarring amount of silence, calls for you to ask that

Something to write home about
It's a sunny day in Albany? How did that happen? It's 50 degrees and it's February - how awesome is that? This calls for a change - some happy upbeat music. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to enjoy the weather while it lasts. By the time I get back from Florida, it's supposed to be cozy and 20° again. Exciting! Here's some I Am Robot And Proud. *** Something To Write Home About - I Am Robot
