With death comes new life

... or something like that. Pitchfork dropped two huge pieces of news today.

RIP Grandaddy.



They were my band at the turn of the millenium, defining every move I made. I think in a moment of true sensitivity, I might have shed a tear the first time I heard that Jed the Humanoid died. In these tough times, we must stick together.

But let me interject this line from Amazon Women on the Moon, "Is this a party or is this a funeral?" It certainly wouldn't be Backfield in Motion party without the mention of a Friedberger. Looks like we're getting some new Matthew solo stuff come this summer. Play on playa.


I couldn't leave Eleanor out of this entry completely.

Both articles can be read at Pitchfork.

Aside from that, sorry about the lack of updates. I'm currently wading into the "seeking a new job" pool, when I really should be cannonballing in there. But I'll always have time for you guys. You guys are pretty good. So, look out for some legit updates soon, not ones where I just steal shit from Pitchfork.
