INTELLIGENCE FAILURE

I hate making decisions. Always have. There's a Mexican restaurant around the corner from me that advertises '80 Different Types Of Menu!' It is my idea of hell.



Here's a good band. They're called (obviously) Fleet Foxes. Maybe I'm late to the party on this, maybe these guys are already huge but I just heard of them this weekend. They're sort of like Simon & Garfunkel meets Band Of Horses. I've actually come around a bit to Simon & Garfunkel; I still maintain that 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' is one of the most horrible songs ever recorded (as is most of the album) but some of their earlier stuff is great. Anyway, below is a live Fleet Foxes performance. The song is 'Mykonos' and it's sort of two quite good songs smushed together to make one rather amazing song.



Finally, Generation Kill. Iraq etc. By the guys who done The Wire. Great stuff altogether.
