I haven’t listened to any John Frusciante in a very long time. Finally come back round to the mood that is best nurtured with his music.

I forgot just how perfect this album is and I demand that you listen to it as soon as possible.

You can download it here: Amazon MP3 Download – John Frusciante – Curtains

Get your skateboard out and listen to John Frusciante Curtains, you will feel everything tenfold.

Have a great day!

I was having trouble finding a cd version of Swahili Blonde – Man Meat so I finally gave up and bought it from Amazon MP3. The following link will take you right to the place you should be (UP YOURS APPLE STORE):

I really love the album. It reminds me of some of the crazy Sublime albums, John Frusciantes earlier stuff like Niandres lades and usually just a t-shirt and some others… I can’t remember their names. These are albums I very much enjoy listening to because they escape a lot of the constraints other artists have gotten themselves into… Including me.

I think John Frusciante’s input is spot on but hands up to the original Swahili Blonde gang for having such a fantastic sound. I like the fact that the album doesn’t get to that serious level that leaves you feeling a bit empty. I also like a break from lyrically driven songs… It’s an all round good album for me.

I can’t really rate music, each to their own and all that… So i’ll just say that this has become my favourite album.

I was going to go over the songs and write some of the stuff I feel when listening… Alas, I don’t feel pressured by the album to specifically think of anything, It really just lets you glide. I’ll tell you if it becomes more bemusing as I listen to it; at the moment It feels clean. Rather than being tainted by the life of the musicians, it is more defined by the music’s abstract nature itself. I love that, I love that a lot.

Thanks Swahili Blonde, great listen… Sounds great on my Bose Mazda 6 MPS speakers too, yippee.

My girlfriend had obviously been searching around YouTube for a while and stumbled across this video… I watched it and absolutely pissed myself, I think you need to be a developer to actually laugh, but that’s another matter. It’s so spot on, some of the images in it like the lady biting the laptop, excellent… haha.

So here is the video:

Big ole thanks to the poster – Oferspiegel -  for making me laugh.

Who is James?

I am 21 years of age (subject to change), I love art to its nth degree and creating pictures, music and poetry that reflect my eratic weirdness

How long have you been doing artistic thingies?

When I was a little kid, I use to draw cartoons of video game characters like Super Mario and Banjo Kazooie with my best friend in school, rather than doing actual work… My family always had an artistic flair too so I guess that helped me to be interested or submerged into the world of art.

Do you use predictive text?

Yes, I do.

How often do you send Text Messages?

Random question. Probably once in a full moon *shrugs*

Where do you continue to get motivation from?

I get a lot of inspiration from the world around me. Turmoil, love… you know, the usual. A lot of it gets right on my nerves so I decide to ramble about it in a poem or song.

What does James do?

I work for a web application development company and enjoy my work as it gives me the freedom to be creative in many ways that I would not usually have time for at home.

Why is James on the web?

I see it as a great way to communicate to the individuals. I like to think that some really bummed out guy finds my website and can associate his emotions with the kind I express in a lot of my poetry and songs.

What does James get up to?

I love skateboarding, oh boy do I love skateboarding. For a long time I would go pretty much every other day, but now I’m all busy and what not, so now I try and skateboard once every other week with my cousin. We genuinely have a good laugh and it’s a real release for me… sexually… Nah just kidding.

Favourite movie?

Gosh, I guess it would be a fight between Apocalpyse now and Pulp Fiction. I will probably regret choosing these but at the moment, they are big in my head.

Favourite singer?

I have a few but John Frusciante is definetly up there.

Well thanks James Trusler for spending the time with me today, have a great life.

Goodness me, Radio 1 is already the most annoying station in existance, so when I heard Chris Moyles latest addition to the World Cup plethora of songs – ‘World Cup Song’, I was not surprised.

I wonder if Chris Moyles can beat a world record for killing people through music.

You can listen to it here, but beware, it’s fucking annoying. The song grinds on you more than a grinder, grinding things. It’s so intensly frustrating! *rips hair out*.
