Review: Sun Kil Moon's "April"
about 1 year ago
Blog post image preview

There's something about Oregon Winters, how bleak the days can be, the afternoons lazily going by, and getting used to the endless variety of cloud cover, be it white or cream-colored, that makes me think about Sun Kil Moon. There is something in the voice of Sun Kil Moon lead singer Mark Kozelek that seems to hit me with a stormy sense of arrival, the way it washes over my ears, and how somet...

Sun Kil Moon

For Sun Kil Moon's second album, Mark Kozelek (former lead singer of Red House Painters) chose to reinterpret the music of Modest Mouse, and somehow managed to pick most of my favorite Modest Mouse tunes from their canon. What resulted was a strange and eerie, yet beautiful, album. Here's a taste. Further reading can be found at "AllMusic":http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:n7tvad6k...

Tiny Cities
over 2 years ago

I picked up this album after seeing Mark solo in Nashville. He played these songs acoustic as well as some Red House Painter material. He continues to be one of the only songwriters I know who can keep me riveted for a whole album. He is also the only artist whose entire collection I own. I have to say that "Trucker's Atlas" is probably my favorite track of this album right now.. but the who...

Don't get me wrong. I think the ocean is beautiful, but there is a reason I have lived in landlocked Ohio for 32 years. Things like this:http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070222/ap_on_fe_st/new_zealand_colossal_squid_4I have this recurring dream all the time where I am floating on a tiny raft on the open sea in the middle of the night with nothing but black skies and water for as far as the eye can ...

The best kind of boredom
over 2 years ago

I am in fact bored on a Friday night in the heart of Hollywood. But it is a sort of self induced boredom. It's a boredom born out of a lack of money at the moment, Which can, and hopefully will be soon, remedied. The sort of boredom I was coping with in Ohio was much, MUCH worse. Here, at my beloved intersection of Vine and Santa Monica, I can open the door, walk a few hundred feet, look in any...
