]]> Hello Hurricane arrived in the mail this weekend, in all of its vinyl glory. I took it over to the recording studio at my folks office and put in on the turntable, sat back, and enjoyed an amazing new record.

Switchfoot has been my favorite band since they’re debut album “Legend of Chin“.

There is a different vibe this time around. This album feels more personal. It tires me out when people try and inject meaning into art that may or may-not be there – but this album is incredibly deep.

Love seems to be a growing theme in Jon’s lyrics – the idea, theology, practicality, loss, hope… however you want to pin it. I first noticed it in his solo albums, and was pleased to hear it echoed in this new record. It’s not for pop radio and way too deep for church radio to grasp.

There are some albums in life that are better left un-diluted by pop and church culture. This is one of them.

I hope you buy this album. It’s an investment into yourself you wont regret, and shouldn’t live without.

Mess of Me

The Twittersphere has declared Monday as “Music Monday” – which totally bucks the powers that be that have declared Tuesday as the official day to talk about what’s new in the music world – which, in my opinion, says less about the wisdom of the masses and more about our agonizing attraction towards abstract alliteration. I digress…

So for this Music Monday, I would like to introduce you to dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip. I stumbled onto this duo a while ago because this video made the rounds on a few sites I frequent.

Scroobius Pip isn’t mainstream rap or hip-hop – but he’s got more rhyming skills than most records you’ll find at FYE. Some might call him a beat poet. I call him a breath of fresh air on the hip-hop grind. If you’re interested in something fresh, insightful and dare I say – inspiring – pick up Angles – dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip.

Thou Shalt Always Kill
