I've got this book Aesthetics and Politics sitting on my shelf, which features writings from Adorno and Brecht, as well as Benjamin (another talented gentleman), Bloch and Lukacs. Should be interesting.

i wish i read more of that stuff it's really ill but i can't unless forced to by school or school-ish things



i read the work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction though which was good and i keep seeing this other benjamin thing called the arcades project which looks awesome but is also like 70 dollars

Yeah that's one of his most famous essays, and one which Adorno refers to quite a bit in his Cultural Industry writings. I've been tossing up for a while whether to buy that Arcades thing too.



I find myself more and more being drawn into that world, maybe because throughout my degree we never fully delved into it, or any serious intellectual discussion.

im thrilled with this thread so far, very pleased at the discussion generated. At the very least it's gotten me thinking about what I present here. I think I'm... learning...? on SPUTNIK?!?!?!

"I've had this before. Do I actually come across like that? I figured most people realised I was younger"
Well yes but I'm not sure exactly why. I'm actually getting deja vu with this conversation, so I'm pretty sure we had it in my other period of activity here (late 2011)

Really good piece downer.

My problem with the track review is he's making 'okay, but pretty ordinary' lyrics out to be something more than they are. The snippets you've out into this review are not exactly poetry

"saw them last night, probably the best gig i've been to"



oh ok I was considering whether I'd bother going to see them in a couple of weeks (venue is like 5 minutes walking from my house) but I guess I have my answer!!!



wait, you have good opinions usually, right?

yeah if there's nothing else going on I definitely will. I haven't heard their music, just noticed all the hype they've been getting.

with it being the best gig i've been to you have to factor in that iceage are one of my favourite

bands, and also i haven't been to all that many gigs



that said i'd recommend giving this album a go (they only played one song off their other album) and

if you like it i think they're absolutely worth seeing.
