“The East” by the Matadors of Shame
Prior to today, I had only heard the matadors at shows and etc, but I listened to a ton of their recorded stuf today and it was pretty awesome/homesickness inducing.
you should really listen to this, its really good. The whole discography is available to download here and its def worthwhile.
This is just a collection of things I think are neat.
A general overview of 'things I think are neat':abandonment/the post-industrial midwest, anarchism (syndicalism, insurrectionalism, etc), race/ethnicity (esp. defining/constructing the boundaries of whiteness), gender, class (talking/thinking about class generally seems to be an underrated activity), health care (access to, the experience of obtaining, etc), art, science fiction, punk music, conservative talk radio and anthropology (which probably incorporates almost everything else about people).
