All Tomorrow's Parties

Saw The National a little while ago- so awesome!! Whenever I start to despair that indie rock isn't interesting anymore, I discover bands that create amazing sounds. Fuzzy guitars, a little violin to add some depth in the background, lots of quiet-loud-quiet. So good!

It has been a long day and Arrested Development is on ATP tv, so this is probably it for tonight. More music tomorrow!

Also, there are a lot of characters here. Officer Mancuso from A Confederacy of Dunces would have a field day here. Seriously, when did the indie rock ensemble change from retro ts under shabby cardigans to costumes?

Awesome! Okay, I'm musically ignorant, but I got a song by them from my flist not long ago and loved it. I was contemplating getting an album. Glad to hear they were good live! *g*

They are really good! The only album I have right now is The Boxer, but I can highly recommend it.

Thanks! That's the one I was considering, actually. *g* Now I have to choose between that and the DeVotchKa. Heh.
