Haven’t gotten down to any reviews yet, given my (on-topic) writing speed and my (completely unrealistic but not impossible) goal of reviewing every album I own. I only got one started before my computer crashed and I had to rebuild the whole site. And I felt a little boxed in being stuck with that one. But that is kinda the point of this blog: thinking inside the box. BUT, I can make a bigger box. So, using my random process (foobar shuffle) here’s the first 20 reviews which I’ll get to in whatever order:
- Queensrÿche| Empire
- Kinski | Airs Above Your Station
- V/A | Words and Music of Pizzicato Five
- V/A | Osu! Tatakae! Ouedan! Original Songs!
- V/A | I Love Bollywood
- V/A | Japanese Independent Music
- Sonic Youth | Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star
- V/A | Kill Rock Stars
- Faye Wong | Jiang Ai [To Love]
- Pigface | Preaching to the Perverted
- 2Pac | All Eyez On Me
- V/A | Music of Islam Vol. 8: Folkloric Music of Tunisia
- It’s a Tesseract | S/T
- Pizzicato Five | Made in USA
- V/A | Anticon Label Sampler: 1999-2004
- Mark Prindle | Smilehouse
- Tom Waits | Beautiful Maladies: The Island Years
- Morning Musume. | Hawaiian de Kiku
- Vince Guaraldi Trio | A Boy Named Charlie Brown
- American Watercolor Movement | It Takes 15 to Tango in My Book, What Book Do You Read?
Thaaat’s quality random. I don’t foresee any controversy.

Gotta admire a guy who plans to write reviews of Queensryche, Sonic Youth, Pigface, and Morning Musume, all in the same breath…
If there’s one thing the average western wota should do, it’s expand the horizons, broadly and inexplicably.
If I’m into *one* thing, it’s whatever another wota recommends, and it doesn’t hafta be Japanese. I’m particularly interested in your review of SY’s ‘Jet Set…’ because I’ve had it a couple years and to this day, don’t have an urge to dig into it, only because the guy I got it from, I don’t trust his taste.

I’ll be taking breaths, there’s not really a schedule for this. But thanks. Jet Set is a weird SY record, it takes a while to get into it. One of my faves, but not very typical for them.

It really was a random list, is the funny part.
