So the April CD from the Mix of the month club came today from my broham Thomas. It kicked off so powerfully that I decided to resurrect the Ol' web journal to mention one heck of a mix CD starter.
Track 1 was by New Orleans's The Generationals. A band that I have seen and heard here and there but never taken the time to absorb. Do you know what I mean? Like sometimes you read a tshirt slogan and don't really take it in because the main reason you were reading the slogan was to avoid eye contact and the clever play on words just goes in one eye and out the other as you prepare for a deep stare into someone's spectacled oculars. Such instances in life happen daily, and only when you get to sit down with the tshirt and soak in the slogan do you truly appreciate its humor.
Such was the case with The Generationals... I saw them in Austin, I've heard them coming from the speakers of Jenkins, the spintovan, and have been juiced by their Park the Van signing. But here I am on the interweb now saying that this song is making every step I take a little brighter:
The Generationals: When They Fight They Fight
