correction: the strokes

the strokes' first impressions of earth is not runner-up for worst album of 2005, but rather will most likely win worst album of 2006 award.

i got confused. i listened to the album in or around october of 2005 and thus assumed that it came out then. since i had no intentions of purchasing it, i did not ever bother to research whether or not a real copy of the album had been released. if i had, then i would have learned that january 3, 2006 was the release date, thus making it among the first and definitely the worst albums released this new year.

if you want to hear it, let me know. i'll zip it up nice and pretty for you. however, i am warning you that listening to this album might cause upset stomachs, headaches, and general nausea, so proceed with caution.

in other, unrelated news, the greatest by cat power is streaming on her myspace site, but this girl cannot get it to work. the album is properly released next tuesday and, as i mostly like her, i will wait until then.
