a little of the old in-out, in-out…
Devotchka are a band I heard about on NPR a few days ago. I downloaded some of their stuff and they kick ass. Kind of a latin rhythm, multi-instrumental, Russian folk, wedding band from Colorado. It’s as if I’ve been waiting for a band to make music like this and then suddenly they came along. Check out the NPR review of their new album How It Ends.
On a slightly related note, I think I’m going to breakdown and buy an iPod. It doesn’t suit well with my rants against commodity fetishism (especially since most people seem to actually have a sexual connection with these things), but like my guitars, my computer, and my books, I’ll consider an iPod as only a tool that aids in my edification and expression(–don’t misunderstant that).
