exciting things

well, just one thing actually.
For as long as I’ve been serious listening to music, I’ve been a pretty obsessive nine inch nails fan. I think my life’s temperments have matched up nicely with the sequence of his albums, or rather how I ended up acquiring them. Additional my tastes in music have evolved along at the same speeds. I still flip on some of the early halos for a listen (I think it is pretty badass that each release is numbered), helps calm the nerves
And, not surprising, a lot of the music I listen to now was through a series of connections to nin. Aphex Twin, for example, had two pieces on “further down the spiral”, that’s the only time another artist has had a completely orignal work on a nin cd so that got me into buying “Richard D. James” & the rest of the Aphex Twin albums I could find (and before I saw nin in Cleveland, they played SAW II, I almost craped my pants)
Well, I don’t think you are supposed to ever directly reference things in quotations, I guess that’s the whole point, well, anyway, I almost crapped my pants again today when I checked out nin.com and saw a lil’ teaser from 2.12.05 for the new nin cd due out in May.
I’m giddy!

They’re playing “THe Hand that Feeds” on my radiostation–it’s rather poppish for a NIN song, and one of my friends has found MP3s of it and “The Line Begins to Blur,” and says the second is better. But it’s coming. Keep your eyes on the MP3 sites.
