La Roux - Reflections are Protections

It is no secret that I have kids.  Can you believe that?  The currator of Ohm's Law is a human!  3 boys, to be exact.  All young. 

From their earliest years, I have tried to teach them the importance of listening to good music.  When each one of them were babies, I would sing them Kraftwerk - Neon Lights on a nightly basis.  When Yo Gabba Gabba introduced them to Mark Mothersbaugh, I started listening to Devo in the car.  The result?  3 Kraftwerk fans, 3 Devo fans.  3 fans of analog. 

My youngest son is now 4 (bottom photo).  He has enjoyed analog his entire life, but now he is addicted to the analog tones which originate from the camp of La Roux.

Looking to the future, I am not concerned they will get involved with drugs, or something equally stupid, as they seem too smart for that type of behavior.  However, sometimes, late at night, when my defenses are down, I worry that they will turn their backs on analog.

This is my youngest son's favorite song this week:

We Wait for Entertainment

I sat at my desk yesterday waiting... waiting for entertainment.  Across the sea, a friend and colleague, Colin, heard my silent cry for help and posted this.

From Sweden, may I present you with Those Dancing Days...

Northern Labour Party - September 30th, 2011 @ Fitzgerald's in HB

Colin was deported from our country.  He is now in Germany, but we still love him.

Northern Labour Party will debut their new drummer, John Poblick, September 30th.  Some may be asking why he looks so mad in this photo.  It is because he wants to destroy you.

Samhain - Archangel

In the 7th grade, I had a friend who was from the UK that attended our junior high school.  His hair hung down in front of his face and terminated to a point.  I was a little familair with punk, as my brothers were into that stuff, but I wasn't really familair with Samhain, as we were not a Samhain family.  This kid worshipped Samhain. 

Listening to this stuff as an adult, I feel that the music couldn't be simpler.  Of course, simplicity is genius, but this stuff is way straight forward.  But... keeping with the idea that a band should perform for the song and support the melody, Samhain pulls it off on Archangel.
