2003.01.19 take a whiff of my pantleg, baby:
another week, another complete lack of anything to write about. i did go see gangs of new york. i guess that might be something. it was three hours long and daniel day lewis was awesome in it. that's about all i can really say about it.
75 or less has run a couple more reviews of mine over the past week. check out the seluah and the live neurosis write-ups. i also wrote a review for the hot charity reissue, but it looks like someone beat me to the punch. just for the sake of pleasing my own ego, i'm going to print my review here and then post a link to the other review.
rocket from the crypt – hot charity + cut and play (swami records)
i bought this record while i was supposed to be out christmas shopping, but since it was the season of giving, i decided to "give" myself a little holiday treat. it's no surprise that a reissue of older, out of print rocket records blew away their newest record with ease. tracks like "lorna doom" and "if the bird could fly" rock you so hard that you think you might crap your pants. after hearing this, you may change your new year's resolution to "throw this thing on repeat and ride around giving beer to homeless people."
and the pretender…
you decide.

'lack of anything to write about'? say, i remember some hot brian moments from this week. here's a few to jog yer memory: 1) deciding that car insurance was a plausable enough excuse to drive the civic 60 mph through the snow just to see if we could glide off road into a row of parked cars.
2) if not for the "pick 3" menu, than the "all you choke down bread sticks" served by eygitans is excuse enough to dine at Fazolli's, otherwise known as the 'Wallmart food court'
3) watching John king whip ass on the Big buck Hunter game. (by the way has just beaten his own record, and now holds the longest winning streak with 19 in a row)
4)losing faith in Brooklyn rock n' roll, by listening to the whaa whaa, honky cheez rock band,The Forms, and dispite repeated advice from the co-pilot, did not throw the damn cd out the fucking window.
5)and the no.1 thing to write about this week………………
your shiney 'like new'apt, cleaned from corner to corner by the very handsome, and one and only, Brooksy.
