Let's Dance to the Wombats

This afternoon's task is simple; be out the office at 5.30pm at the latest.

And since I've put this done on this wonderful contractually binding world that is my blog, its going to happen. Haha that being said while I'm sitting on my couch just past midnight listening to my new music and glancing at the moto gp.

But new cds, new music. Went to chadstone this afternoon for some random shopping and mag-nation'ing. Picked up a new fragrance (hugo boss energize) and I'm seriously considering subscribing to Times mag. But more importantly, I found myself at JB.

JB Hifi is a girlfriend to me, it teases me with sales and proceeds to drain my wallet dry. The past few visits have just been straight dvd attacks; season 2 of harvey birdman, or hustle, or the new futurama movie or stranger than fiction (good movie, haven't gotten into the mood to rewatch it though). But today, it was the cds.

- Damien Rice "9"
- Jose Gonzalez "In Our Nature"
- Sufjan Stevens "Greetings from Michigan"
- The Wombats "A Guide to Love, Loss and Desperation"

All for just under $60. Admittedly its a big hit but I was in the mood.

Really happy I went out on limb with the Wombats, there have been times I've bought a cd based a single song I've heard on the radio only to find the rest of the cd just didn't live up to that one song. I got the Wombats solely on "Lets Dance to Joy Division", a song I honestly believe I've only heard twice on triple j; but so far, the rest of the cd is just as good.

I've found some joy; good music.
