Hello all you workers, hope the new year's going well for you. (Are you
keeping your resolutions?)
I picked up Red Sails in the Sunset this week, and have listened to it 5-6
times up till now. As someone who's more familiar with the Oils' newer music
(ie: 90's) I admit I don't quite know what to make of it. Lyrically, it's
fine, the politics are fine, it's the music that's a bit wierd to me. (it
could just be part of my deeply ingrained bias against 80's music)
I was wondering what other people thought of this album? Is it anyone's
favorite, or least favorite? And the song Bakerman-- what the hell?? That's
not intended to be a rude question, I just have no idea where this song came
from, does anyone know the story behind it?
In the end the album will probably grow on me....to the point where I love
it, but right now I'm just a tad bit bewildered by it all...
On another subject, has anyone else had trouble getting into the Powderworks
archive in the past few days? My computer keeps telling me that the server is
down. Anyone know what's going on?
One month and.... six days till Capricornia is released here. I hope it won't
be too hard to track down here in North America. Have many people heard the
new single on the radio? I've been listening but I don't know if there are
any stations in Montreal that would actually play it. Radio here sucks.
Anyway enough random thoughts from me today
Take care everyone
Varina
