hiatus over. and what better way than to start with some awesome songs to feel good despite it being monday.

first



then



but wait

I've mentioned Antony and the Johnsons before- but this song is just so different- even for Antony it's different. Please give it a little listen to. It's called 'Shake that Devil' off the 2008 EP Another World.

Speaking of Blue Monday by New Order here is an acoustic version. It's good, but I also can't help but think that if this version came first- then it just wouldn't be the same... weird. Also as a side note- wow there are a lot of terrible covers of Blue Monday out there!

Here is a simple cute band for girls who are slightly off center, but not wholly alternative. They're a Norwegian electronic band called Flunk. The singers voice sounds a bit the girl from Sixpence none the Richer mixed with the chick from Trespassers William. Boys wont like this at all... just a warning.

My preferred song (which is a quirky cover of New Orders' Blue Monday)



and there's also-

no fun - the stooges.

Satori

Imagine, if it is your will, a darkened sky, the darkest yet, and full of thick heavy clouds. Atop these clouds sits an army of children, each clutching devilish fireworks in their tiny paws. With the force of the Beast, one by one, these fire crackers are hurled onto the open planes below, creating an orchestra of sound. Higher still, stands Nikhil. He's instructing these devilish mozarts and handing them more earth-bound missiles screeching "Louder!".
Miles below, standing on a cracked earth and being attacked with vicious light, you exist in the rose garden hysteria. And so is musical satori. And so are The Wild Eyes.
