Music and movie tips

A few for your entertainment dollar...

Death Cab for Cutie. Raved on my close buddy Eek (sp). Immediately appealing, gentler tunes, deeper lyrics lying undertone.

Muse. Passed this band up for a while, but this latest album has something ! #2 of the year as ranked by Q.

The Automatic. Catchy and corny, esp. Monster.

Arctic Monkeys. But you've heard me rave before.

Ok, it's getting too late now, getting pissed off with finding the right links, incl. The Editors - All Sparks (Cicado remix) - absolutely love this track, sorry allofmp3 not cooperating tonight.

Starting to warm up to Hot Chip (big in the UK last year).

Trying to get my head into new Nora Jones and Carli Bruni.

Looking forward to new Kaiser Chiefs album as we have tics for the show here in April.

Re: movies. Odd mix these days. A soccer lady friend had recommended It's all gone Pete Tong and I just saw it this week - loved it, Ibiza tracks, Brit edge and deeper thoughts.

Also caught most of Green Street Hooligans about football hooliganism on the UK. Interesting perspective.

Just picked up a version of The Professional on the way home. Great buy, $8 for the remastered DTS version on Superbit. If you've never seen it, great movie, Reno just phenomenal.

And the Katrina movie. Already referenced.
