It's Been A While (no, not the Staind song)

Yes, it has been a while since I wrote a post on my very own Blogger Blog... I am now living in Cleveland, Ohio. I got a good job and have moved from my humble abode that was Toledo, Ohio.

I am hoping that this is a permanent change for me and that the next place I go will either be Florida or New York City. I really do not want to settle down in one single location for the rest of my life, that just wouldn't be me.

New Blog Site Coming Soon!

As this blog was a project for a class I took at the University of Toledo, I have decided to create my own blog + website at a *to-be-announced-at-a-later-date* catchy .com domain name.

Look for that announcement here and stay tuned for my official blog + website.

Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace

Last week I used my $10 worth of Best Buy reward money and bought the Foo Fighters sixth studio album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. Before this point I never really got too much into the Foo Fighters so I figured I would give their new CD a listen. I must say I was very, very, very impressed with this album and am glad I bought it. I first heard their new single "The Pretender" on the radio and thought it was a really good song so that is what kind of swayed me to buy the CD. It has a very good mixture of style. A lot of the songs remind me of The Beatles but with hard rock added into the mix which really is the Foo Fighters style. The blend of this "old sound" with the Foo Fighters own sound make the songs catchy and riveting. Listen to The Pretender, Come Alive, and Statues and you'll know what I'm talking about. The last song Home is a slower song with a very nice melody and lyrics that I have to mention since it is one of my favorites from this album. This CD has been in my car's CD player since I bought it and I've probably listened to the album in it's entirety at least 10-15 times.

Here's the Track Listing with links to Wikipedia for some of the songs that have a page:

1. "The Pretender" – 4:29
2. "Let It Die" – 4:05
3. "Erase/Replace" – 4:12
4. "Long Road to Ruin" – 3:44
5. "Come Alive" – 5:10
6. "Stranger Things Have Happened" – 5:20
7. "Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running)" – 3:40
8. "Summer's End" – 4:37
9. "Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners" – 2:31
10. "Statues" – 3:47
11. "But, Honestly" – 4:35
12. "Home" – 4:52
