The Friday Morning Listen

L.D. 50 - Mudvayne
For the past month or so I've been wedged into a boiling pit of work (the deadline approaches) and work (the house sale approaches). After a few weeks of this stuff I started to feel like I was caught in an extended scene from Koyaanisqatsi.
Yessiree, life is just a little out of balance. What's worse is that I've started to hear music in my head...that I haven't listened to in months if not years. One unwelcome bit was Philip Glass' Einstein On The Beach. While I really do like that particular chunk of music, I don't want my brain dredging up pieces of it.
So this morning I thought it'd be fun to chase away the mental music demons. Mudvayne's stuff is aggressive, chaotic and full of adrenaline-producing twists and turns. It's fun in a music-as-rollercoaster kind of way. What's he saying/singing/screaming/belching? Don't know. Don't care.
