femme phase
aargh! ngayon nagka-blog na rin ang friendster just when i set up one in yahoo360. To save time I guess, it’ll have to be cut n paste scenario so one post in one blog’ll be the same for the other… let’s start with this one I posted in yahoo360 last April 13….
I am in one of my hypothetical situation moods today. And (knock on wood) in the possibility of acquiring deafness, I am positive that amnesia would soon follow. This is because, I think, my lifetime’s memories are segregated by my the various musical phases I’ve gone through… so far.
There was my angstsy grunge phase, 3-chord punk phase, my Swedish/Norweigian guitarpop phase, my new wave/ darkwave phase, my POP-py twee phase, my guitar feedback sonata phase, among others…
Now I’m in my Femme phase. Grrl groups, grrl vocals. All thanks to Oracle Phils. lightning fast internet connection. Rediscovering the raw Bjork in The Sugarcubes, a tough Brody Armstrong in The Distillers, the sweet painful songs of Camera Obscura, Stars‘ hip pop crooning from Amy Milan, the too happy girls (dunno their names) of Call & Response, this one punk track from the No-no’s, and of course everything by Sonic Youth with Kim Gordon singin in it.
Don’t know why. It maybe just gives me a reason to go to work everyday other than the obvious excuse of survival.
