My Rearview Mirror
Posting is on a short hiatus, as I have moved from Lubbock to Austin. I’m pretty busy and have no easy wi-fi access, so this week’s posting will be spotty, but here’s a song that I’m relating to tremendously as of late.

The key is to listen to the lyrics – they’re pretty horrible.
One of my all-time favorites, Primus, are embarking on a summer tour, their first in almost four years. And while Jay Lane has replaced former drummer Tim “Herb” Alexander, and while the band hasn’t released anything since 2003, and while I won’t be able to catch them on the road this time around (no Texas dates at all, guys? Really?), I still have a soft spot in my heart for the boys in Brown – Les, Ler, and Herb/Brain/Jay. I suppose I always will. So, with no more ado, I present to you my favorite Primus songs; for those of you who only know the band for producing the South Park theme, consider this an introductory course to the best funk/alt-metal band ever and a peek into my adolescent years.
After uploading these tracks, I noticed all of them have female vocals. And they all rock. Girl power!
Call it laziness, but I am hungover, and I have a lot of work to do around the house today. Not to mention my Internet connection is particularly spotty today. So, when in doubt: videos!
