Right, so I know I haven’t posted anything in a while, so here goes a little one. I admit, I have a very off and on relationship with blogging lately, but it’s a little irritating at times when you realize that what you’re posting on your blog is coming off of someone else’s and from someone else beyond them. Sheesh, the regurgitated society is in full swing. So, I get a little irritable about that, but honestly, ask any of my friends and they’ll confirm that I’m usually a little irritable about something. Now, on to the regurgitator:
The Fabulist! is a fun little blog that I occasionally check out who specialize in a mild brand of emo/goth, for lack of a better descriptor. Recently they featured an artist named Nick Jaina, from their site:
Nick Jaina has discovered an abalone cross during an archaeological dig at San Juan Bautista Mission, written a jazz opera about a funeral parade in New Orleans, and drummed for the band The Be Good Tanyas. Yes, he has lived an interesting and productive life, and now he’s made it all the more interesting and productive with the release of his new album, Wool (coming March 11).
Personally, I would have said he’s a bit reminiscent of Leonard Cohen (and no, not just because he also has a song about another Marianne). He also reminds me of someone else but I can’t quite put my finger on it… any thoughts?
And here are links to a couple of songs found in that post:
