Corey Talks Tunes? He does when he creates a blog whilst being drunk.

This is my new blog. For now, I'm just gonna talk about music. This might eventually be a "diary" as Mr. David Ensinger would say. For now, though, I'm just gonna talk about what I like and why I like it. I like a lot of random stuff, and I usually don't think about why I like it, but recently I've been thinking about what it is about the music I like that makes me like it. Lots of likes.

Usually I'm sure this blog will be much more articulate, but right now I'm drunk and I decided I wanted to write about why I love the Ergs!'s dorkrockcorkrod. I've owned this album for well over a year now, and it is still my go to album when I don't know what to listen to. Tonight, I figured it out, and I wanted to tell the world (AKA Dave and Phil... maybe Mate, I don't have his IM screen name to tell him about this). Anyway, the album is amazing because there is only one good way to listen to it, beginning to end. Even if you have to stop it for some reason, you can pick it up from the exact spot you stopped. It's amazing, nearly unbelievable when you think about it. It's like the greatest 35.3 minute song in the entire world. If you listen to single songs on the album, you rob yourself of the greatness of the thing as a whole. The only comparison I can make to it in the punk rock world is Dookie. Dookie is like this, but nowhere near as much as dorkrockcorkrod. There are tons of songs on here that could easily be amazing pop singes, but instead it' one cohesive, perfect album and I can't wait till the Ergs! make another one, because it's obvious that that is when they are at their best. Making albums instead of 7", splits, or EP's.

That's it for now, my next post will probably be about Randy Newman or my pop punk revelations from Columbus, and it will hopefully be much less drunken.

I hope you like sleeping on the streets, dave, because there's no room for my ENEMIES here in Rodgers 210.
