Justice Has Been Served
I finally got Justice’s first album (Cross) last week, and it’s fantastic. A couple of the tracks I’d already heard; ‘D.A.N.C.E.’ and ‘Waters of Nazareth’, which are obviously already favourites of mine. However, some of the new tracks are becoming my favourites, too; ‘Phantom’, ‘DVNO’ and ‘Tthhee Ppaarrttyy’ in particular. The latter (and ‘One Minute to Midnight’) reminds me of John Carpenter music, mainly because of the keyboard/synthesizer in it. I might be the only person to think that, but The Thing was on TV last night and it kept reminding me of it. I definitely recommend it to anyone who might have a similar taste in music to me.
Throwback Thursday: Semisonic – Secret Smile
I feel that Semisonic are an underrated band, which is a shame because they have some great songs. Again, though, I feel I didn’t appreciate Semisonic when I was younger, I’m not sure why this is. It may be because I didn’t think it was cool to like certain bands, whereas today I don’t really care what other people think of my musical tastes. Good job I’ve grown up, really.
Enough of my Jibba Jabba! Secret Smile got to number 13 back in 1999, which I’m surprised about because I thought it was older. There goes my sense of time…
