Elliott Smith - New Moon
Monday, May 14, 2007
Elliott Smith's label Kill Rockstars (KRS) has released a new album of all his unreleased stuff. I don't know why a lot of it wasn't released, because I love a lot of it, some of my favorite songs are on this album now. Its a whopping 24 tracks, two CDs.
About that label though. Heres a situation where I feel no remorse for just downloading the album and not paying any money. Elliott Smith is dead. This is a marketing play for the most part. They want more money that they can make off of Elliott, in spite of his death early in his career. Chances are they payed him a bit to sign, he died early, and all of his assets went to his woman (who probably killed him...). So in an attempt to make up for what they paid him, they probably put together this little guy. Now it would have been one thing, if they had donated the proceeds of this CD to a worthy cause, or anything other than stick it in their pockets. But they didn't, so fuck 'em.
So download away, torrent sites have it up, took me a couple hours. If you're a fan, enjoy. If you aren't yet, download some stuff and give it a try. One of my favorite artists. Ever.

Year Zero
Sunday, February 25, 2007
Its parepin. The government's solution. Its in your water. Its in your body. Its in your head.
When did we make the conscious decision to follow whatever they shove down our throats?
What is real truth? And even if you you got it, would you want to believe it?
This is the beginning of the end.
Parepin and that presence, a hand, or something, extending from the sky.
What is it? Do you want to know? Can you believe?
