[0024] two men need one money, but one money needs no man
Snowing again, a fresh blanket over everything to compensate for the meltage we had the other day. It's... still pretty nice, actually? Even managed to do a bit of yoga! Oh, to be one of those people who actually enjoys regular physical activity instead of just loving the feeling of it once it's over.
Wikipedia Sez: Life's Too Good is the debut studio album by Icelandic alternative rock group The Sugarcubes. It was released in April 1988 by One Little Indian in the UK and Europe and in May 1988 by Elektra Records in the US. The album was an unexpected success and brought international attention for the band, especially to lead singer Björk, who would launch a successful solo career in 1993. Consisting of veterans of Reykjavík's early 1980s rock culture, the band took elements of the post-punk sound that characterized the scene, intending to create a humorous take on pop music's optimism, which is reflected in the album's title. Despite never having intended to be taken seriously, and because of the success of their debut and their contractual obligations, the Sugarcubes went on to release two further studio albums.
Prior Familiarity: Nope! Don't know the group, don't know the music, and it wasn't until I actually started the thing that I went 'ooooooh it's bjork, okay'.
What I Did While Listening: Tidied a bit around the house, but not much because this thing is barely half an hour long.
Verdict: It's fun! Just a bunch of quick little bangers. Weird noises, but good noises.
Favourite Song: Delicious Demon
mentally i'm still here
