New music

So, there I was, on last.fm radio listening to iron & wine's similar artists. Out of nowhere (well, out of someone's shuffle mode) came this amazing, amazing man. His name is Jose Gonzalez, and the song was killing for love. It has this driving beat, but his voice is so mellow. So I looked him up. The song Storm is another one I love. It reminds me of a mix between iron and wine and ani difranco when she's not rocking out too hard. I love it.

There will be blood.

There certainly was... There will be blood was a character study that basically showed how the same characteristics that can create a business man can lead to his downfall as well. Daniel-day Lewis and Paul Dano were superb, but the movie did have it's flaws. I was a little confused about Dano's character for about half the movie, until I realized he was actually playing two characters. This is just one instance where the plot was not delved into enough to make things clear. The soundtrack was awesome, but at some points the music built up to... nothing.

But it was still a really good movie, and worth seeing. I wish I had more to write, but I saw it last week. I should have written then, but I was busy. I'm really interested to see where Paul Dano will go. Every time I see him he's awesome, and he seems just as good at comedy as he is at drama. Anyway, I hope he makes tons more movies, so I can hype him up a whole lot.
