I roll the dice on too much new music. I find myself on the bus frowning at my ipod, wondering how some of those bands got on there because I just can’t keep track of it all. I take flyers on all kinds of stuff I can find on emusic and wherever. I keep at it because sometimes, I find just ridiculously awesome stuff, like this. I’m loving Marnie Sterns. I couldn’t even tell you why. The guitar shredding, the crazy complicated songs, her strange, high, enthusiastic vocals… the lyrics, where they’re even comprehensible, are cool, too…
It’s titled “This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and That Is That” which is highly annoying. I know. I forgave it.
Anyway. Go sample a couple of songs (seriously, just the first 30s of track one is a really bad indicator… try 2, “Transformer” or 3 or 4…). If I get anyone to listen to this and dig it as much as I do, I’ll have done a good deed for the day/month/whatever.
