It's A Good Week

in the Metal Dad household. #1 Son turned 24 today, he graduates from university Friday, and Saturday is Cinco de Mayo.



Besides being an anti-social genius like his Dad, he's pretty good in the kitchen.

The Morning Drive: Tom Waits - Closing Time


I heard the Eagles' cover of "Ol' 55" the other day for the first time in awhile. I think the slick production with its layered vocal harmonies completely mucks up the song.

Maximum Output! Activate The Pit!

I've seen this band a number of times and they always deliver. Retrospective DVD/CD/LP coming out next week, should be good.

The Rage That Guides

I posted about this band the other day and have been checking them out. I have a fondness for female fronted hardcore bands. The Metal Dad household likes strong women. Listening to them has got me back on the hardcore tip. I've been on a big sludge and black ambient binge.

Mises Quote Of The Day

"Politically there is nothing more advantageous for a government than an attack on property rights, for it is always an easy matter to incite the masses against the owners of land and capital. From time immemorial, therefore, it has been the idea of all absolute monarchs, of all despots and tyrants, to ally themselves with the 'people' against the propertied classes."
Mises - Liberalism, p. 69

Kingdom

I'm not a vegan or straight-edge but I do like good straight-edge hardcore and this band is worth a listen.

Mises Quote Of The Day

"The most popular of these doctrines is crystallized in the phrase: A public debt is no burden because we owe it to ourselves. If this were true, then the wholesale obliteration of the public debt would be an innocuous operation, a mere act of bookkeeping and accountancy."
Mises - Human Action, p. 229n; p. 228n
