It’s that time of year again to start preparing for Coachella. Look over the line up, boys and girls! When you’re done updating your Facebook status be sure to check the line up a second time so not to miss those small print bands that you may have quickly glanced over in your rush to feel socially relevant. It’s those bands written in the fine print that really make Coachella what it is. Besides the whole road trip with friends experience and blah blah blah. After all, it’s those bands that you actually have a chance of seeing. Everyone has their own way of experiencing music, mine doesn’t take place standing behind three football fields worth of people. Though, like a sucker, I’ll still stand behind those thousands of people to see Gorillaz, Thom Yorke, Pavement and others because I love them. Also I’m not crazy enough to get there early and hold on to the railing for eighteen hours. I’m not spending nearly three hundred dollars to stand in place all day. And on a side note, has anyone noticed DJ Lance Rock is on the line up?! SUPER! FANTASTIC! AMAZING!
Well, with order having nothing to do with importance I’ll slowly post my COACHELLA DO WANT LIST.
#1: The Cribs:
Men’s Needs, Women’s Needs, Whatever is still to this day one of my favorite albums of all time. I’ve been really enjoying their latest album Ignore The Ignorant featuring their newest member Johnny Marr. Initially Johnny Marr joining The Cribs seems really odd, completely unexpected. Thankfully, after seeing and hearing the new addition in action, it works for me. Their sound has definitely changed, but in a good way. Not in a disappointing It’s Blitz kind of way. Check out some Ignore The Ignorant tracks below, along with some video. YAY!
The Cribs - Victim Of Mass Production
The Cribs - Is Anybody There?
The Cribs - Stick To Yr Guns
The Cribs - Men’s Needs
The Cribs - Don’t You Wanna Be Relevant?
I would have posted the video of The Cribs playing “We Share The Same Skies” on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, but NBC hates you and me.
So in conclusion: MUST SEE NOW! DO WANT!
