I dedicate this blog to alternative rock music, experimental rock, punk rock, classic rock, indie rock, and other genres of the kind. I feature some of my favorite bands of these genres, which include BOTANICA , THE DRESDEN DOLLS , LOUDBOY , THE VELVET UNDERGROUND , FIREWATER , SEX PISTOLS , THE KINKS , XTC , JOY DIVISION , BOB DYLAN , LOU REED , THE KOOKS , BABYSHAMBLES , VAMPIRE WEEKEND and others. I'll be posting gifs, pictures and music videos on this blog, as well as their music Most of them are my own art, inspired by the music of these band. And one more thing! I do follow people back sometimes, but I do it with my other blog. It's a personal blog, it's called age-of-irony, and it's sort of moody. FOR MORE INFORMATION CLICK ON *ABOUT* or WRITE ME A PERSONAL MESSAGE. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy!

I’ve been working on a video from a concert the past couple of days. The edits are very slight, mainly just making it a little smoother, but it turned out very pretty with the lighting etc. The performance was brilliant and fun, I hope you all enjoy! The song is Eleganza & Wines by Paul Wallfisch, it’s very cabaret. Live @Grabenhalle, St. Gallen 19.04.13

I’m here with Paul Wallfisch (aka the Sith Lord and best musician there is) I hope you like it, because I learned to do “advanced” photo manipulations just to make this happen.

When I leave New York City Cross Pulaski and Kasciusco, Marcus Garvey and McCombs All these Haitian, Polish cracked Sicilian, Irish bridges spanning docks where Bandaleros turned believers, trade in prayers, pitching fastballs When I leave New York City on this warm winter's night When I leave New York City on this warm winter's night, the bridges baked in orange Brooklyn stone, Manhattan steel and the water in between goes from lavender to black Hiding yesterday's dilemmas, holding off tomorrow's crises They closed the HoJos 'cause Philip Stark didn't like the sloppy joes But when I leave New York City I look forward to the ride back Up the drive Watch the full moon light the Pepsi sign and Icahn's best investment Holding up a mirror for a Queen wooing Manhattan Leaving New York City on this warm winter's night Leaving New York City on this warm winter's night As I light another Lucky 3 strikes against me says my son who's learning how and why To call this city home For a while is what we are For a while, in this car A warm winter's drive A warm winter's drive, leaving New York City

Botanica - Perfection (Who You Are, 2010)
Herhangi bir duygu durumundan özleme geçiş ışık hızında. Farkında dahi olmadan aldığın nefesleri çıldırasıya özlemen bir gribe bakar. Bir uzvun gibi yanında olmasına alıştığın insanı bir daha göremeyecekmişsin gibi özlemen bir geceye bakar. Neyse ki ses dalgaları sabahı daha çabuk olmaya ikna edebiliyor.

This is my favorite song today.
Я инженер на сотне рублей, И больше я не получу. Мне двадцать пять, И я до сих пор не знаю, чего хочу. И мне кажется, нет никаких оснований Гордиться своей судьбой. Но если б я мог выбирать себя, Я снова бы стал собой.
