Just remembering Kurt Cobain. I miss those years in high school, it was 1994, when a friend and a classmate introduced me to nirvana, and the grunge music. It was the talk of the room, there's no youtube those days, "All Apologies" was the first music I've heard from them, "Smells like teen spirit"...
By Seamus Anthony Ennis If you have tried different methods to achieve happiness (meditation, reading self-help books, therapy, etc.) but have not succeeded then I’d like to share with you a very simple trick to being happy that has been blowing my mind lately… In fact I actually believe it is...
Back in the late 80's and early 90's there was a dynamic band of scruffy upstarts kicking against the system, forging a whole new scene in Seattle and inadvertently inspiring a generation of kids everywhere to scribble lyrics and doodles on their school books before going home from class and picking...
It's always a tricky course to navigate when a performer sets out to cover a song written and performed (usually made famous) by another artist. A good cover version requires that the artist performing it puts their own stamp on the work without getting the key elements all wrong... they must be...
I was listening to Nirvana's Heart-Shaped Box and then Luna Sea's Storm. Dude, is it just me or are the first few seconds the same? (except that there's more distortion with Storm)
Show us something you can't explain. I read about Jill Bolte Taylor a few weekends ago ago in the Guardian and was thoroughly enthralled by her story. While some seem to think that she really, honestly has experienced Nirvana, other tend to believe that she simply experienced her brain "not...
One thing I noticed while re-watching this particular clip was the similarity that this process has to the dialectic process of personal transformation, in particular for me: Annie Dillard's account of the three days. I think I can add yet one more row to the chart I made on her process of personal...
Nothing cheers me up quite like counting down the hours on my last day before a 5-day vacation (it starts tomorrow for me). Except maybe some Nirvana, played on a group of ukuleles.
Getting closer to pushing that top 25 back to Monday. Well by one day I mean. I think the list posted last week was on a Thursday. I've managed to chip away at the library being re-loaded back into iTunes. What's been a pain in the ass was re-categorizing everything by artist, album, year released,...

We finally are in the studio working on our first EP titled 'Paris is Burning'. We found a small studio located about an hour from our home town through the help of some other local bands. We had been in fancy studios near LA with our previous bands before and the results were an over popish...
I figured that I'd start something new for my blog. I'm going to blog about my top 25 for the week. I'm just going to let my iPod play at random and list those songs. I can't go off iTunes because I'm STILL not finished loading my library. I have roughly 4300 on my iPod and over 12,000 on my HD. I...

05/20/2008 12:52:14 ♥ written by vu ( ) "Seasons in the Sun" is one of those songs that is massively popular in Asia, especially where I'm from originally in Vietnam. I found out that the song is actually a 1961 Belgian French song called "Le Moribond" (The Dying Man) by folk singer Jacques Brel....
Steamed Clams are a Barrow band of no specific genre. Be expecting a sworm of gigs by your local Clams this summer. It all started Back in 2002: Daz, Ste, and James decided to start a band. Blah blah... Shit members... Blah blah... Practiced for years on end... Blah blah... Got a gig... Blah blah......
Now, don't let the title fool you. I like Courtney. I like her b/c she basically kept Kurt alive throughout Nevermind. And, b/c of that, I have nothing but respect for her since I would not have been able to do the same thing in her situation. But, I'm listening to the Pod and I just put Nirvana on...
In November of 1993, while Nirvana were in New York recording their Unplugged performance, Groove Neuter and I were working for a college radio station in our hometown. A few months later, when the performance aired, Groove came over to my house and we spent a few hours rigging a VCR and a cassette...
I'm listening to Nirvana's Nevermind. I haven't listen to that album in ages. I liked Nirvana before Cobain decided the fame was too much/murdered (whatever you believe) (its ok, I don't like Courtney Love either but I don't know if I believe it was murder) But don't think I don't like Nirvana now....
