Sunny Afternoon

I recently rediscovered a song while my ipod was on shuffle last night, the song was "Sunny Afternoon" by The Kinks. Although it was one of the first songs by The Kinks that I've ever heard and one of the songs that made them one of my favorite bands, i haven't listened to that song in years. What makes me love that songs is they sing about having a pretty depressing life, he's broke, his girlfriend stole his car, and left him, but he still looks at the brighter side of things, he has an ice cold beer and a sunny afternoon. Another band that has been occupying most of my time has been Cursive, mostly their "Burst and Bloom" EP. The song "Mothership, mothership do you read me?" is now the most played song on my ipod. I love everything about that song, from when its slow and quiet, to when it could start a mosh pit. The cello playing in the background goes almost unnoticed but once you notice it, you realize that the song isn't the same without it(Cursive no longer has a cello player). "The Antipop" album by, Primus is excellent as well. This was their last album before their hiatus from 2000-2003. This album features guest from a bunch of different bands including, Jim Martin of Faith No More, Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine, and Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit. Some of the best bass playing I've ever heard has come off this album, in tracks "Greet the Sacred Cow", and "The Antipop"
