the forest & the trees - the forest & the trees (2010)

buy / listen / myspace

i you think this next paragraph is actually about this album you better just skip to the one after it if you want the point of all this text... pretend it's a choose your own adventure book... just skip to the best choice...

you've chosen misadventure number one i see... anyways... so, i came across this on a bandcamp player on someone who friended the pork records' myspace page who has since become my pre-coffee and cigarette venting post of the day... usually i do a little venting on a public rep firm trying to sell me on terrible band's music or a a random piece of spam when to their surprise actually gets a mouthful of mindless rambling about how they shouldn't rip off poor defenseless idiots looking for a way out after i pretend i'm actually interestied in their marketing scheme... or sometimes a good friend will be having a little b.s. session with me get a large text spill but today i feel bad and good at the same time because it was a complete stranger who has no clue how i am and was just hunting for good music like i do... it was nice to chat, but see what happens now is that i spill a bunch of text on here too instead of just getting to the point and my coffee and cigarette... thanks myspace girl who's odd text display name i didn't understand for this find... i had to go hunt for it as soon as possible and post it up... on track 8 now going for the home stretch and i can already tell the rest third of this album is going to be just as great as the first run... too bad it's not pre-selling for vinyl... i have this new anti-cd mentality since digital media has become cheapened and more advanced - both destroying and strengthening the music industry at the same time... anyways, listen to the streamer above... this is a really good debut for this guy/gal pairup... one of my favorite things yet today, which is actually saying a lot, because if you think i post a lot... that's only what i like enough to listen to from beginning to end... my garbage can is equally full and somedays even more full than what goes in my keepers pile... agggghhhh... mindless rambling again! focus.

ok.
coffee.
cigarette.
listen to the sound the forest and the trees make.
it's good.
real good...
enough that i'm going to listen to it twice in a row.

later.
