Writer's Block: Round and round

many. Something I'm very guilty of when driving by myself is putting fast songs on repeat that I really really like. Not so much when people are around, I'm too self conscious of annoying them.

Lately I've been on kicks of listening to entire albums, which is something I haven't really done since I started digitizing my collection. In heavy rotation are the 2 latest Girl Talks, the Scott Pilgrim soundtrack, CAKE's first three, and the wall, occasionally peppered with NIN's old stuff. IDK, I feel like in the age of the easily downloadable digital single, the art and ability to craft a longer form work that sustains interest all the way through is indeed a dying one.

Man, I really miss my life with music. I don't know if it's a casualty to age, work, parenting, emotional trauma, or jadedness, but I don't really live life with a soundtrack these days, and that is SO unlike the first several decades of my life. It's weird to define myself as a music person when I listen to so very little music.

I totally agree about the whole-album thing.

The first half of your post - I do that too. ^^
