One hell of a slow news day.
MUSIC:
The new Camera Obscura MP3 that's been floating around hits me in all the right indie pop ways: a piano that sounds like it's in a room the size of a mansion, vocals that sound like they're sung through a wall of sugar, and an ornate little melody/rhythm set.
The Boy Least Likely To has an adorable little track streaming on Pitchfork. Also on Pitchfork, a deliciously baroque morsel of live Beirut and some good ol' Lonely Island fun. Oh, and if you missed the Grammys, they've got the hookup, plus some goofy superlatives.
Is DiS, like, dating Emmy the Great?
The Grammys were pretty much what you expected.
FILM:
On the Austin front, Wendy and Lucy is screening at the Drafthouse! Hard to describe just how excited I am for this.
Oh /Film, you always hook me up with a Watchmen fix.
WEIRD:
Chris Brown is in some deep shit.
WORLD:
The BBC reports on the new Bolivian constitution.
A suicide bomber in Sri Lanka killed 28, the New York Times reports.
PERSONAL:
Remember how my room was frigid? Yeah, now it's stale and warm. Thanks, Jester West!
2009 FILMS SEEN: 1.5
2009 SONGS ON MY ITUNES: 298
Current Computer Situation: MacBook Pro, muggy.
