today at monster!

just a quick note:

i stopped by
monster music and movies today and picked up two cds. one brand-spankin' new, the other a few years old (but i just found out about it). the first one is the new one from the hives called the black and white album. woo hoo!!! i have been looking forward to this one. i have not given it a good solid listen yet, but what i have heard has been stellar.

the other disc i picked up is called the new original sonic sounds in band name and album title. it is mark arm, steve turner, and dan peters from mudhoney with two other dudes covering an album's worth of songs by a mid-60's garage band named the sonics. haven't even laid ears on this one yet, but i am quite sure i will love it. the members of
mudhoney never disappoint.

and in other
mudhoney news, that great indie label sub pop has just released a limited edition, vinyl only live LP called live mud. it is a recording of mudhoney in mexico city on december 10, 2005. i went to sub pop's website to purchase, but alas, it is limited to only 500 copies, and they are sold clean out. bummer, you say? ha! ebay, i say! i won a sealed copy on ebay this very afternoon for $11.99 plus 4 bucks shipping. the bonus with this one as well is that sub pop was sweet enough to include a code for downloading the whole album in mp3 format. now, i can load it on the 'ol ipod. a good day indeed in my world.
