Nick's Notes:
"Bat Country" officially has a straight half year at #1 now. No one coming up still. Not much else going on this week. I lopped off seven songs and there aren't any debuts.

I figured "Jesus of Suburbia" would be falling faster by now. I heard "Bug Eyes" again at a timely point. Death Cab has peaked already.

I can't believe "Crazy" moved up that much. AFI is just coasting. "Blue Orchid" won't last much longer. Anyway thanks for reading.

03 02 (12) Coldplay - "Talk" [2]
04 01 (18) The White Stripes - "The Denial Twist" (1 week @ #1)

The White Stripes have their fifth #1 on my chart with "The Denial Twist" (others have been "Dead Leaves", "SNA", "Hardest Button..", and "Blue Orchid).
Two old Modest Mouse cuts from a(n approaching) 9-year old album I know. But it's too good of an album to ignore, and both songs deserve a mention on my chart. As does the becoming three-year-old remake of "SLTS". Even more old stuff coming along, but I hadn't heard a lot of it before, and I'm desperate at getting rid of the chart dinosaurs anyway.
& soon enough you'll see the two follow-up charts.

[a Nick O!]

Ooh, I can now say I'm familiar with all those old Modest Mouse albums my cousin burned for me two years ago. Let's see how I'd rank the songs on

The Lonesome Crowded West (3/5, in my book)
1. Bankrupt on Selling
2. Convenient Parking
3. Heart Cooks Brain
4. Long Distance Drunk
5. Jesus Christ Was an Only Child
6. Trailer Trash
7. Sh*t Luck
8. Teeth Like God's Shoeshine
9. Doin' the Cockroach
10. Cowboy Dan
11. Polar Opposites
12. Out of Gas
13. Trucker's Atlas
14. Lounge (Closing Time)
15. Styrofoam Boots/It's All Nice on Ice, Alright

I haven't listened to Good News for People Who Love Bad News yet, and while I liked the 3 singles just fine, Modest Mouse just don't do it for me, save for one or two songs per record.

Side note: I was inspired by the drums in the intro to "Trucker's Atlas" to loop it for 4 minutes, thereby creating the basis for a future composition. (This was earlier just this week actually, and I did the same with the intros to Fiona Apple's "A Mistake," Thrice's "Stare at the Sun," and dredg's "Bug Eyes." Those all make killer samples.)

Sounds cool.

That album (and The Moon & Antarctica) really do it for me. I wish I liked Good News as much because while that's technically great, it's a taste I still haven't acquired to. This one girl I knew had a shirt that had all of the lyrics of "Sh*t Luck" & I even put some lyrics of it on my headings on livejournal. Isaac Brock's shouts on the song & the crazy jamming out really amused me. I like how "Lounge" sort of has different parts in the song.

The only one I don't really like is "Long Distance Drunk". Sometimes repetitive instrumentation can work for me, but I don't like it there. On another note, the intro of "Hotel Yorba" by the White Stripes sort of reminds me of "Styrofoam Boots".

As much as I love those two, though, my all-time favorite song of theirs is still "Tiny Cities Made of Ashes", the first song I heard by them in '01. Speaking of which, another girl had a shirt that said "The world is my ashtray", as that song suggests wearing a t-shirt that says that.
