Aaaaah...

The WONDERFUL feel of falling safely back into the ACCEPTED and TRADITIONAL Kieran O'Mant Blog Layout (Not that I have objections to change as a concept, I LOVE change... it's just I am also immensely nostalgic... but I digest (Before you ask, that was an intentional misuse instead of the word "Digress")) of rambling, tangents and music suggestions. I come today bearing gifts of Gomez. Gomez are an old O'Mant band, putting them in the same stadium as Radiohead, Elastica, Freak Power, Cumbawamba, Nirvana, The Beatles and Alabama. Gomez are described as "a sonic intersection where mutated blues dust, psychedelic folk trappings, and hummable melodies collide, coalesce, and re-emerge into a brand new sound."


Yeah, that about sums them up :)

Ya know, it's hard, however, to just put one up from that album. It has so many facets that just putting this song up means I fear failing to get the whole of them in perspective. They are VERY complex in even just this first album. Well, this modest beauty of understated and mild solemnity with a hint of the tragic and a taste for the optimistic is one side to the band, but I think I can stretch myself a little to put up another one. After all, some may already be familiar with this particular second song I'm gonna chuck up. Bah, even that seems like too little. Maybe I'm just trying to overexpose you now. Which would be ironic, 'cause I hate it when people do that to me XD

But anyway. About my life I guess... not much to report, same ol' steady ploddin' good :)

... Damn.

I need some tragedy or somethin' to write about in my life.

(Takes that back. REAL FUCKIN' HARD!)

So yeah. It's all good, in da hood.

Or so they tell me.

I've never been there.

I don't think they'd like me very much in the hood, really....
