Sally Shapiro

  • Feeling a little blue?  Winter blahs got you down?  Then I suggest you give Sally Shapiro’s “I Know” a spin on the ol’ MP3 player.  Your mileage may vary, but for me, listening to this track is like listening to a hundred sad, beautiful summers set to a disco beat. If I’d heard this track in 2006, when it came out, it probably would’ve been my song of the year (though I still love me some Junior Boys).
  • I watched the first volume of Noein this previous weekend, and it’s currently at the top of my anime viewing pile, due to the very raw-yet-intriguing artwork and the references to all manner of esoteric and theoretical physics (such as the Copenhagen Interpretation).  That, and it has some really cool fights.
  • I’ll believe it when my fingers actually touch the shiny aluminum disc, but Kevin Shields is talking about a new My Bloody Valentine record.
  • Apple makes Momus cry: ...for someone like me, an Apple keynote speech is much more than a new product announcement. It’s a sermon, a series of miracles and a rousing patriotic oration about the homeland.
  • The creators of Lost are figuring out a precise end-date for the series.  Which sounds great to me.  The last thing we need is another scenario like that of last 2-3 seasons of The X-Files.
