Of Polls & More Polls

Thanks to those of you who were kind enough to take a second of your time to participate in this highly acclaimed poll, which is still ongoing. Personally, I'll pull for Josh or Sam too, and it appears most of you agree. However it did occur to me sometime yesterday (yes, that's how long it takes) that my poll question is too one-sided (typical man), so to redress my wicked ways, I have put up one for female singer-songwriters. Next poll coming up: pull both genders together and see who wears the crown. I am stoked.

And the musicalities, for those who need reminding:

He War Cat Power
Let it Die Feist
Dying Breed Marissa Nadler
I Wish I was the Moon Neko Case
A Love Song Nina Nastasia
When Under Ether PJ Harvey

As usual, like a song, buy a record.

Hype Against the Machine

Hello online world,

The hype machine has apparently decided to manufacture some hype using it's large scale hype-production factory. This unfortunately elimantes my primary intake of new music and frees up lots of time for trivial things such as homework and work.

Final Fantasy is here in town again on Wednesday. I saw him last year with The Phonemes and Bob Wiseman, which began my love affair with The Phonemes. Anyway, he's in town at the Myer Horowitz in Edmonton. More after the concert.

While hype machine is down, I'll take this opportunity to mention my band, Scientist. We're mosty a two piece band with a few other members who drop in and out as time passes. Listen to the Orca Song, which is recorded on four track and is our best recording. The other two are under construction at the moment. Here's our purevolume page.

It's getting colder here in Edmonton. Have a great few days, everybody.
