What's playing this week.

Miss America 2006 Jennifer Berry spoke to the student body today about drinking. Two things stood out to me.
1. She isn't great looking. Granted she wasn't wearing this outfit and there was no cleavage to distract the eye but I was unimpressed.
2. She completely stole Emily's "we all have choices" line. She really didn't even do it justice, it wasn't sinister and ominous sounding.

Gretchen has been playing the new Destroyer album a lot over the last couple of weeks. I have to admit that it is a pretty bad-ass record. He really has a good thing going on this one. The opening cut is almost ten minutes long and you hardly even notice... It's that good. Here is one of my favorite songs from the album.
Destroyer - Priest's Knees

I have been listening to the Bishop Allen tune The Monitor so much that I'm sure Gretchen is about to pull out her hair. The song is amazing, give it a listen Bishop Allen - The Monitor.
Bishop Allen is a great band, I once heard them described as prep rock and that title seems to fit. I was turned on to them be www.youaintnopicasso.com . Their album Charm School was the first album I bought from itunes because I couldn't find it anywhere else. Right now they are in the midst of releasing one new ep per month until the end of the year and then the new album is going to be released, I can't wait.
