So you know that funny commercials with the google eyes on the stack on money? And the ones with the cavemen? And the ones with the gecko with the funny british accent? They basically make up 1/3 of all the commercials I watch and theyre usually the funniest ones. Well today I realized that theyre all for Geico! So props to the writing and advertising geniuses who managed to create 3 themed commerical sets that can make a person not even realize theyre all for the same company even if you know they all end up with Geico at the end. Genius.

So I bought the new Morrissey and Trail of Dead CDs today. Theyre both incredible. Since when is Morrissey awesome anyway? I mean, The Smiths are an iconic band for that they did, but I wasn't born in the right era to really get them, plus when they made their "comeback", I had already found the kinds of sounds I liked from the 60s, 70s and 80s and The Smiths didnt really fit in there at all. But Moz brings it on this album as he did on his last two. Simple, yet complex songwriting and arrangements that seem perfect for each song.

The Trail of Dead album is really epic. They expanded on the sound of their last album and by alot. The album sounds HUUGE and considering theyre only a trio its a really impressive outing. There is alot to offer here from the opening track which sounds like it could open up a Pink Floyd album to the track "Isis Unveiled" which blasts an accordian "riff" that would blow Flogging Molly's kilts over their heads. Awesome stuff on this album.

I got the new Thursday album too, but they are gonna have to wait until tomorrow as these other two albums need a few more spins to get some more out of them.

Dinner Time, not sure what it is, but theres brown gravy on it so score!

Cheers
