Shopping Spree...

[p0tat0es]

Due to the kindness of others (meaning Anna and my sister Katie giving me gift certificates), I procured several CDs today:

MC Paul Barman - It's Very Stimulating: hardcore hip-hop from a dorky Jewish kid from NY. Blame Prince Paul.
Decendents - Somery: All? No! All!
Do Make Say Think - s/t: finally found a copy of this.
FCS North - s/t: live drum 'n' bass in yr face from the guys who have made me coffee at Bauhaus for years.
Shelby Lynne - I Am Shelby Lynne: a lil' bit country, a lil' bit...er...not.
Motley Crue(!!!) - Shout At The Devil: She's got looks that kill.
Jill Scott - Who Is Jill Scott? Words & Sounds Vol. 1: ahhh yeeeeah.
shannonwright - maps of tacit: saw her open up for the Dirty Three. One word - OMFUG.
various - 6 From The Farm: I got this 'cuz it had the Bali Girls, who I like alot, and Ice Break, who I thought I might like from reading an interview in The Rocket a while ago. The broke up shortly thereafter.
various - Rawkus 2000 New York Independent Hip-Hop Mixed By Shortee Blitz: three words - Mos fuckin' Def.

As a side note, I saw my CD (meaning Six Day Affair) in the $0.99 bin at Orpheum. That always hurts.

Paul Barman is tres wacky...I found the CD at Tower Records of all places, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get a hold of. Ya might try going to his website or the WordSound Records site to see if they do mailorder. (I haven't looked at either myself.) It's just funny how he takes the piss out of the whole machismo-core hip-hop genre and talks about his sexual dysfunction and all things dorky. It's well worth tracking down.
