    The Microphones
    The Glow Pt. 2
    The Moon

    The Glow Pt. 2 is a great record, but "The Moon" is something even more special. One of the saddest and most perfect songs ever... the juxtaposition of remembered young love happiness in the verses, with the reality of lost love sadness in the choruses. Vocals buried in the music, you have to dig to get it all out. Kinda makes me think of Sonic Youth in the beginning, I almost expect it to morph into Teen Age Riot, sometimes I just want want to play that opening riff over and over, and then something like Beulah takes over with the more frenetic pace and the horns, the constant drums driving that motorrific flow of music and lyrics seem to make it go by really quick, even at over 5 minutes. So I have to play it a few more times ... pretty special ...

    I went out last night to forget that
    I went out and stared it down
    But the moon just stared back at me
    And in it's light I saw my two feet on the ground
