hi! i'm als & this is my blog.

i write about random things.
these days i write pretty sporatically.
sometimes i completely rave about something, like a tv show but sometimes i write pretty serious things.
i write in short phrases, i like the freedom of not having to write in proper punctuation and grammar.
i'm a christian. i also ♥ music, art, photography, movies, tv & books.

hope you enjoy ♥

#221 freelance whales

a band i'm loving right now: freelance whales
their new album is pretty awesome
actually i've downloaded most of the songs
but thats because their album isn't released yet in australia
i'll be sure to buy it soon
apparently it would be at jb hi-fi on friday
hopefully i can get it then.
:)

their songs are really cute and catchy
they kind of sound like postal service with the electro synth vocals
and the lead singer kind of sounds like ben gibbard
they also sound kind of like the morning benders.
but the freelance whales has a slightly more country or folk feel.
with the use of many different instruments
including the banjo and the glockenspiel.
generator ^ first floor was the song that got me into them
its such a cute song :)

we get up early just to start cranking the generator
our limbs have been asleep, we need to get the blood back in them
we're finding every day, several ways that we can be friends.

we keep on churning and the lights inside the house turn on,
and in our native language we are chanting ancient songs,
then when we quiet down,
the house chants on without us."
