I've put together a list of 30 album covers I've been impressed with over the course of 2007... I'm sure I've missed some (feel free to add your own or pick your favorites from the following list...) I've even added a cool tune to listen to while you check out the artwork... From Blonde Redhead's fantastic "23" album (one of my Top 11 of the year, which I posted on earlier)... here, in alphabet...

Okay, here's the deal. I have resigned myself to knowing there are not enough hours in the day to become properly acquainted with all the new releases this year. I've spent a good deal of time catching up on older albums that somehow flew under my radar, and as such have not yet had the chance to fully listen to some newer albums I know my trusted moggers have fallen for. Alas, all in good time...

Blonde Redhead have released a video for "Top Ranking" - my favorite song on their recent album 23, which I like especially for its vocal harmonies. The video is directed by Mike Mills and features choreography and dance by Miranda July, the writer, performance artist, and film director (Me And You and Everyone We Know). Kudos to mogger mejeffb for posting a link to a high-resolution Quicktime ...

I was just listening to a free stream of the new Blonde Redhead album entitled "23" over at "Spinner":http://spinner.aol.com/artists/new-releases-full-cds?defaultTab=3. Well, actually, for the first few minutes I was listening to some band called The Comas' new album, which didn't strike me as very Blonde Redheadish. Then I actually opened ...

I am spending my weekend in Copenhagen by myself. Well.........visiting friends but my family is at home. I haven't slept enough, I'm coming down with a cold and I've got a bad hangover. Since yesterday I've been staying with a friend of mine who is as single as can be. His apartment takes me straight back to the time when I was single with no love and no children in sight. Funny how fast I can...

I can't believe there is no previous MOG post on Blonde Redhead. The band consists of the Japanese front lady Kazu Makino and the Italian twin brothers Simone and Amedeo Pace, who met randomly in New York in 1993. The conventional wisdom has it that BR began as yet another Sonic Youth follower (including in the perennial concert favorite, "(I Am Taking Out My Euro Trash) I Still Get Rocks Off" ...

Went to see Interpol @ Alexandra Palace on 29th Nov, and luckily saw Blonde Redhead supporting, one of the bands I wanted to see live.Especially this song 23 was superb, Paul Banks and Sam Fogarino of Interpol joined them (twin drums)!(And had enjoyed them more than Interpol...)

Sooooooo stoked! Tomorrow me gets to see Blonde Redhead and other delights at Sunset Junction. I've been out of commission a bit, partly do to a two week soccer trip/tour in mexico; in which the excitement of futbol, horchata, factory direct Yves Saint Laurent, and sweaty 6 hour bus rides (hell) could not take my mind of this weekend. So part of prep for Sunset Junction has included th...
