Seven Mary Three - My My
The great underachievers... American Standard was such a good record. So why didn't they kick on? Evolution of sound is natural, but they just seemed to lose their identity along the way. The studio version of this song might be the most underappreciated grunge track from the 90s.

Hey Rosetta! - I've Been Asleep For A Long, Long Time
This is supposed to be Metal Monday. Well let's be honest for a moment, there are no rules around here. Rules are for the birds. Please direct any complaints you might have to this brick wall.
I slept for about 13 hours last night. Straight. On the couch. TKO'd. No dinner. No Superbowl. No writing. Suffice to say I was tired. Sleep didn't really happen for me apart from a couple hours nap here for there from about Thursday. Starting to think I have too much on the go.
Today is catch-up day. El Bloggo is now good to go. Sort of. Still have a few Best Of's to get to further down the road.
In the meantime Tim Baker & Co. are bringing me back to life. Hope they're enjoying whatever it is they've been up to since December. Probably a lot of not much.
