It's a Thursday


Here's a quiz to amuse yourself with:

how indie are you?

I got a score of 9 out of 10, which translates to being "too cool for school" It's nothing to take for serious granted that, but it's humorous quiz that CNN is running.

Enjoy!

ps- The twilight singers are releasing an EP next week! and get this, it's featuring their cover of massive attack's live with me, which I think is actually better than the original recording. www.myspace.com/twilightsingers

you beat me to the Twilight Singers EP...well played. Joseph Arthur also leads his vox on a track.

If I am remembering correctly it is with Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees). If you don't have any solo cds by Lanegan go get yourself one.

ha, i beat you to something! i better mark the record books on that one! (you're like usually ten steps ahead of me haha)

I think that's the whole reason why i like their version of the massive attack song is because i love mark lanegan's voice. don't get me wrong i <3 greg too. but lanegan is awesome and distictive.
i just aquired a bunch of his solo stuff from the radio station actually. i'm re-reviewing a lot of old stuff that hasn't been in our record bins in ages.

so this weekend, i'm reviewing jeff buckley's grace, radiohead's pablo honey, and about 20 other albums i think. i'll make a huge list as i go through them all.

ps- thanks for including a fun photo. i totally forgot to do that.

I took the quiz and I no longer have it...I scored a 6 Moderately Down. I can barely hang...according to CNN.

Megs said...

well, I took it a few times. First time, I got a 9. second time, I got a 6. I seriously doubt you've lost your touch. (however, if you didn't watch a single episode of Arrested Development, then shame on you...but i'm sure you have watched the show, right???)

Besides, remember this, aside from anderson cooper, what sort of indie cred does CNN have? haha.

(who knew anderson cooper was a huge fan of the clash, the smiths and enemy)

Darn tooting I watched AD. Loved it. It will find a life with DVDs. Plus I knew that Bottle Rocket was the "right" answer but my fav is and will always be Rushmore. Hell I named my fantasy football league the Max Fischer Fantasy Football Club.

I knew that Bottle Rockets is the "right" answer as well, however, my favorite is a tie between life aquatic and rushmore.

Based on the fact you named your fantasy football league something max fisher related proves that you're cooler than what CNN would like to think!
