Song of the Day: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Rifles

B.R.M.C. came up in a conversation I had last week with a co-worker. I've lost track of the band over the years, perhaps unfairly thinking they had nothing to offer. The reason for this attitude is that their first album, which spawned today's "song of the day," is so good, a mix of Spiritualized, Jesus & Mary Chain and shoegazer. Their second album, on the other hand, failed to connect with me, and I wrote them off and haven't looked back. Listening to this first album again, it seems unlikely they could have slipped that much, so maybe it's time to seek out their more recent album and see what happens.

Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen finally being reissued on vinyl

Admittedly, I'm a hypocrite - I hate when stuff that I own that's out of print gets reissued.  But when I don't own it, and it goes for $200 plus on eBay...well, let's just say I'm excited.

Just got an email from MusicDirect that Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space is finally being reissued.  And there was much rejoicing
