Half-Named After Conrad Bain's Brother?
06.25.04 (10:12 pm) [edit]Most of you who bother to read my bullshit here know me from alt.music.mike-keneally. For those who don't, get yer ass over to keneally.com and read up on Mike and order his new album Dog. It came into my life yesterday, and it's getting the fuck played out of it around here.
It came at a good time, considering how tired and irritable I've been for the past two days. It hasn't made that go away, it's just let me forget for a while. Good enough. You can forget about feeling like shit when you are confronted with a thick, rockin' slab of meat like this. I'm still working my way around it, but I know one thing - it may or may not end up as my favorite Keneally album in terms of "a collection of songs", but it most CERTAINLY works as his finest if your definition of "album" is "a product of a recording studio." You just can't make an album sound like this in one week with a tiny budget. So yay for killer production and outrageous arrangments to enhance already-excellent songwriting.
I have a very strong desire to learn the guitar parts to Pride Is A Sin, but I'm tired as fuck and I'm not even sure if they're guitars or electric toothbrushes right now, my head hurts so much. Y'all have a lovely night.
Love,
Dougie
