the new COLDPLAY album is now in my possession, thanks to Balky, my perfect stranger. still evaluating it, but it's quickly growing on me. the first record, "Parachutes," immediately found a place in my heart, but "A Rush of Blood to the Head" may take a bit longer to find its niche. Definitely good stuff, though... - can't really ever go wrong with Coldplay.
Jimmy Eat World's "Bleed American" is concretely among my top five records of all time. Absolutely outstanding. Five out of five stars - not that this is news or anything - i'm just reemphasizing how wonderful this album is. If you haven't picked this one up yet...do yourself a favor. Seriously. 9 out of 10 ninjas recommend this sweet disc, and you do NOT want to make a ninja flip out.

After further review of the new Lifehouse and Splender records, I've come to the conclusion that the first brings me no satisfaction at all, while the latter is exceptional. I really can't say that i enjoy the new Lifehouse disc, which is truly unfortunate, considering how great the debut album was/is. Luckily, Splender's sophomore record ("To Whom it May Concern") has turned out to be a worthy follow-up to their debut cd, "Halfway Down the Sky." Rockin' stuff.
Quick apology to anyone sick of hearing primarily about music that doesn't really appeal to them. Moving on...
Halloween Horror Nights in exactly one week! I cannot wait. It's not like the event itself is particularly amazing, but for some reason, I always, always look forward to it each year. I think its the departure from normality...sharing that departure with my closest friends... - it always leaves a strong impression in my head. and Bill and Ted rock. MAN! I can't freakin' wait till next Friday!
it's definitely nice not having a game this weekend...or practice - yesterday, today, AND tomorrow. very very nice to have a break.
is anyone goin' to the Further Seems Forever/Finch/Something Corporate/New Found Glory show on November 12? I sure as hell hope so, 'cuz that show is going to rock my socks off. if you aren't going, trying to convince yourself that you aren't missing out will be like playing handball with a curtain. seriously though, let me know if you're going so we can meet up.
that's all for now...expect a more substantial entry soon, though. arrivederci...
