Tuesday, June 20, 2006
chris 30-01
how's that for suspense and/or plot twists? yeah, it's pretty sweet. definitely not laziness.
HERE'S THE DEAL: qualler's nerdbox crashed a while back and he has no more list. i still do. he may or may not share what he remembers sometime in the future.
WHAT THAT MEANS TO YOU, THE READER: enjoy a hurried, uber-belated rundown of my top 30 songs from last year. (i hope you remember how you can get these songs from me).
30 "maya."
this is a process of a still life.
light.
[firefly sessions].
moment @ 4:40
lifting the podium. post-trauma. pre-definition.
29 "cloud."
fischerspooner.
odyssey.
[capitol].
"i lost myself; you can't see how."
having sex. with gloves on. bright gloves for bright people.
28 "assassination polka."
zzzz.
palm reader.
[polyvinyl].
"i think i'm remembering that i was shot."
combustible celebration. a grass stain spreads. i disrobe.
27 "autumn into summer."
pelican.
the fire in our throats will beckon the thaw.
[hydra head].
moment @ 4:21
the bark ripped off the branches. eaten by way of melting. my face tingles.
26 "lavender."
oneida.
the wedding.
[jagjaguwar].
"all the while it's like i'm never ever there."
force is key. bring it up hard and then pour it away. with form.
25 "git."
skeletons & the girl-faced boys.
git.
[ghostly international].
"that was so teenage; this is heart attack."
weighted keys pulling down my hip bones. i get down in order to get around. shimmer.
24 "heartbeat."
annie.
anniemal.
[big beat].
"i won't forget the greatest time's ahead."
lip gloss is lighter. a firm shake. a wet car ride.
23 "one life to leave."
out hud.
let us never speak of it again.
[kranky].
"it fits us to die."
sleek mechanics. a rest reduction. can you press it just once?
22 "purple blaze."
ris paul ric.
purple blaze.
[academy fight song].
"the pen; the ink; the crayon to write it all again."
broken stream. destroy the fences and throw 'em in. pretend they're going somewhere.
21 "don't run our hearts around."
black mountain.
black mountain.
[jagjaguwar].
"what they said you could become; oh hit the lights."
this is as old as i get. perspiration, wrinkles, haze. it yawns.
20 "i'll believe in anything."
wolf parade.
apologies to the queen mary.
[sub pop].
"give me your eyes; i need sunshine."
demented grapefruits. they spark like light splitting through venetian blinds. shade.
19 "bees."
caribou.
the milk of human kindness.
[domino].
moment @ 3:32
some classic part of me. i can't process that shit. in a canoe, barely floating.
18 "dance 1."
kiss me deadly.
misty medley.
[alien8].
"you're standing up to the teeth and making out like a thief."
there is literally glitter all over me. three people smiling around me. a puff of cold exits me.
17 "men of station."
13 & god.
13 & god.
[anticon].
"we're troubled men just the same, but we're not as hell as you."
the glaciers are as warm as the blood in my veins. but they melt. they meld with us.
16 "the engine driver."
the decemberists.
picaresque.
[kill rock stars].
"there are powerlines in our bloodlines."
brushed up against a dusty book. my eyes burn, but like old lilacs burn. and ashes fill heads.
15 "connie."
el ten eleven.
el ten eleven.
[bar/none].
moment @ 1:55
from beneath my shining feet. i stretch. i fall and the gulf swallows me like summer does spring.
14 "delicate hands."
the long winters.
ultimatum.
[barsuk].
"i belong to someone gone before i was born."
just when transparence gave way to darkness. i always look back blinded. but unbound.
13 "oh mandy."
spinto band.
nice and nicely done.
[bar/none].
"i know nothing ever falls apart."
a sunrise at the end of an hour-long drama. feel synthetic. feel indestructable.
12 "vinyl words."
aoki takamasa + tujiko noriko.
28.
[fatcat].
moment @ 3:39
there is no nothing. only remnants of everything. take the scissors to your sternum.
11 "so much trouble."
matt pond pa.
several arrows later.
[altitude].
"it's hard to breathe buried in a pile of leaves."
a pinhole has potential. there is one piece that helps me feel. the space, not the stake.
10 "halo heads."
tristeza.
a colores.
[better looking].
moment @ 3:39
murders inside the walls. red lights burning the air. i stare, swirl, and dilate.
09 "end of freedom."
wilderness.
wilderness.
[jagjaguwar].
"what is ending?"
we're getting there. draw the shades because there has been only distance.
08 "born on the cusp."
american analog set.
set free.
[arts & crafts].
"it's bigger than love; oh it must be i know, because it always wins."
waking up. the stuff in your eyes feels slight. the bitter light.
07 "saeglopur."
sigur ros.
takk...
[geffen].
moment @ 3:59
punching whisps. an infantile brushstroke pours into me. there is no reason not to cry.
06 "(oh) god."
the most serene republic.
underwater cinematographer.
[arts & crafts].
"even this overpass sees more travel than us."
dis- vs. re-jointed. the crispness of the era/are/rae/aer/air replenishes and finishes she's.
05 "the shaping of a helpless joy."
saxon shore.
the exquisite death of saxon shore.
[burnt toast].
moment @ 3:10
crashing through shorelines. the breaths you take will burn your spine - free from body.
04 "rubber traits."
why?
elephant eyelash.
[anticon].
"i want to always be on film."
funneled pretend. these dreams are imaginings, not longings. cut.
03 "teen angst."
m83.
before the dawn heals us.
[mute].
"i hear the planet crying."
comets of you. thoughts are dispersed while limbs are disturbed; we can lay here.
02 "this year."
mountain goats.
the sunset tree.
[4ad].
"there will be feasting and dancing in jerusalem next year."
mini-this. pieces of future sprinkled on the field. i fear a presence.
01 "magnetic streetlights."
despistado.
the people of and their verses.
[jade tree].
"aesthetically reflects off your body how you see the world."
i am gone. slips away into new. i loathe music.
