REALLY!?: Jimmy Leaves Smashing Pumpkins.
It's been just under two years since I watched Smashing Pumpkins reunite on stage in Asheville, NC. Since then, the band have been at it practically nonstop, with multiple tours, new albums, etc.
I've been enjoying the ride, always excited to hear the new stuff they come up with. Even with all the changes in bass players and guitarists, the Pumpkins have still held on to the magic that makes them so unique. That magic, coming largely in part from the incredible dynamic forces of Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin.
I'm sad to hear that Jimmy left the group. I believe that he has always been a crucial part of the band's music. So, I'm curious to see what happens without him. Who will they find to try to fill that drum kit? That's a big seat to fill. *sigh* Where will their music go?
I wish Jimmy all the best in his future pursuits, creatively and with life in general. He has surely set his place as a legendary musical talent, no other can compare to. As with the Pumpkins, I'm also curious to see what happens with Jimmy and where he goes from here.
Things may not always go the way we initally want them to, but sometimes there are unexpected surprises that we end up appreciating later on.
Life happens. People move on. Change is inevitable.
So, we'll just have to wait and see...

DISCOVER: 46bliss & Astronauts of Antiquity
Some of my favorites more along the lines of jazzy, electronic trip/hop include Massive Attack, Portishead, Esthero, Smoke City, and Mono (who are unfortunately, no longer together).
It's been awhile since I've come across anyone from this genre, interesting enough to pay more than brief attention to.
Imagine my delight, when today I discovered 46bliss and Astronauts of Antiquity.
Naturally, I had to pass them both along to you guys. Good things should be shared with everyone, and here I have not one, but TWO to share!
Visit the links below and treat yourself to some delicious tunes... C'mon. You deserve it.

REALLY?: Mass Solo Revolt Rocks a New Guitarist
Mass Solo Revolt - Tasty World (Upstairs) Athens, GA - 03.14.09photo courtesy of Catherine Wright
REALLY?!
Yes.
Mass Solo Revolt has made changes to their lineup. You may have noticed in the recent gallery pics (Go Bar on 02.28.09), there were only 3 of the guys playing.
Derek left the band. But, wish him well in his pursuits and endeavors. I certainly enjoyed his contribution to Mass Solo Revolt.

I hate that I missed the Tasty World show the following weekend (03.07), where the guys performed as a foursome!

That's right. Dave Harrison of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada is the fourth member and new guitarist rockin' with Marty, Jim and Russ.
