The music blogosphere has gotten all prog again, and I'm totally psyched. Down with punk and terse, to-the-point three-sentence posts! I'm back in action with this blog, and I've been spending between eight and sixteen hours a day in insane, delirious writing jams (on various things--not just this!) Simon just started a new series on his top 300 favorite hardcore records. Woebot is in the midst of a heavy dectuple-gatefold series on rare French finds. K-Punk is busy riffing on the Jr Boys with finely-wrought 3000-word epic solos. Between this and the total-information-overload of Youtube (Bizarro Amon Düül footage! Optical theremins! Secret of the Ancient Sampler: Inside the Mellotron! What no Cluster?), I'd say we're all set. Me, I'm growing my hair long, drinking herbal tea, and listening to Tangerine Dream...
