5 of the Now

• Evil Nine - Icicles
  Evil Nine's latest continues to grow on me. I have woken up many mornings with this song in my head. Oddly enough I was really digging Icicles just when it was released as a single. Must have been all of that radio airplay I was catching in Iowa - yeah right. Seraphim, you rule. I want more. It was particularly fun to get lost in this track during an absolutely ridiculous travel experience at an airport recently. People yelling, nearly ready to throw punches. "All around...you...is fire!". Brought a smile to my face.


• The Prodigy - Omen
  So great to have all of the boys back together. This album has lots of the feel of "Music for the Jilted Generation" and that is a wonderful thing.


• Lyrics Born - I Like It, I Love It (Live @ The Picador)
  Thank you for stopping in Iowa City LB. The crowd wasn't huge, but you rocked it like the entire town was there.


• Lyrics Born - Do That There (Live @ The Picador)
  Joyo Velarde rocked it too.


• Porno Galactica - Sail Away (Live @ The Picador)
  These guys were so infectious. They owned. Spider-man crawl on the ceiling was the best. Check out their mixtape on MySpace.
