S.O.T.D. 5/18: the anti-hardcore punk posting


Well...Pegboy was a pretty astonishing show. If the tinnitus in my right ear, which hasn't cleared in nearly 48 hours, is any indication, it was one monstrous blast of righteous punk squall...but let's face it, I'm old now. I can't do that kinda thing all the time. So once in a while I have to pull out a piece of quiet, moody acoustic music played with heartfelt sincerity by bearded dudes from Canada.

Which brings me to this: All the Money I Had Is Gone by The Deep Dark Woods. Pretty much the perfect antidote to an overdose of punk-ish ferocity. Make sure to sit in a quiet spot when you listen to it....

Oh...and while we're on the topic of Canadians, who seem to be putting a LOT of good music lately, I'm really enjoying this song by The Details, called Capture and Develop It. They're from Winnipeg, check 'em out.
