For the longest time I suffered with a problem I'm sure many of you also suffer with: lack of hard drive space on my puny laptop, it being packed to the gills (or gigs, for that matter) with my digital music collection. I officially "ran out" of room a few months ago, and have since been pretty stagnant with my music listening.

But I have a job, and therefore I have money (a little bit, at least). So I recently went to my local Best Buy and got myself an external hard drive. It's a good thing. I have since been able to listen to all the music I've been meaning to get. This mixtape is a swath of that new music. Some of it is by bands that I had never heard before. Some of it is by bands I had known and loved already, but I just hadn't gotten around to listening to their new stuff. So here's what I've been missing out on....

Track Description:
I don't even know where I heard of Deerhunter. I think I first mistook them for Deerhoof (which I really can't stand) and was initially put off to them. Luckily I finally was able to get this cd, and have been loving it ever since.

Track 3 from A Poet's Life
Length: 00:03:39
Year: 2007
Track Description:
I had heard this song awhile back on the radio, loved it, but I embarrassingly didn't know who sang it, so my friend who I was driving with (a little more in tune with the punk scene than myself) had to fill me in. In case you didn't know, Tim Armstrong is one of the guys from Rancid. This is his new solo album. It's really kind of reggae-ish. It's really good if you're into that kind of stuff.

TEAM 97 -- Third Place badge
TEAM 97 -- Third Place
Long before being knocked up with Eddie Murphy's illegitimate child, Scary Spice was on top of the world. Now, she's nothing but washed up. It's kind of sad, really. Just by scoring third place in this contest, you've got infinitely more street cred than Scary. Congrats!

Despite the fact that TEAM ROBOT was crushed like a Pabst can at a frat party by the might claws of TEAM MONSTER, you are still deserving of a badge... Loser.

The Halloween 2007 Badge
Happy Halloween 2007! In celebration of this event, here is a recipe to make your very own candy corn:

Combine 1 cup of razor blades, 2 cups of clown tears and 3/4 tablespoon spider eggs in a pan and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat and add 2 cups hemlock and 3 ounces of fish oil. Stir until cool enough to handle. Shape and distribute.

Trick or treat!
