like it's 1999

today i went to an actual cd store..

and i purchased a cd, that was released today..

then i opened the plastic wrap, put the cd on in my car and kept driving until i had finished the whole album..

it was really, really great. and newly nostalgic.

(the magnetic fields never disappoint-
i like realism much more than distortion)

Love it. I i came close to your experience when I was home at Christmas. I went to Zia and bought the Swell Season's second album (it had been out a few months). To listen while driving in the car was AMAZING. That's definitely lacking out here. And so is some Emily F.

I am going to buy this album as soon as I get within shopping distance from a store. Heard it on NPR. C. Merritt can get into a fellow's ear.

I like magnetic fields much more than almost everything.
