Day 62: The Joy Of Motion by Animals as Leaders (Album Choice: 3lijah)

For the first time in what feels like forever, I have some time to sit down and actually indulge in the pleasures of an album with a good deal of attention. Problem is that my surroundings are limited to a crowded tiny Starbucks and a dirty bootleg food court they try to pass off as a mall. Also problematic is overcoming the urge to pass up this opportunity to listen to some Jesus Lizard and Brainiac like I always do. I don't listen to Instrumental Metal, I seldom listen to Jazz, and as I've said before most Prog Metal is cheesier than casein-free artificial spray-on cheddar-flavored product (though to be instrumental and cheesy with prog metal you'd have to be REALLY wanky) But whatever, I'd be an asshole more so than I already am if I passed up this time of opportunity. Finally, a break! I can listen to an album with the utmost attention and write about all the great little nuances or minor flaws that make or break the album.

Maybe I'm not as musically knowledgeable or eclectic as I'd like to think.
