Sadcore

So I'd never heard of this type of music until it turned its big rheumy eyes on me from the genre column of iTunes today. And then I realized . . . I am into sadcore. And what a pathetic admittance. Luckily, I'm not single. Likes — kickball, pho do bien, corduroy, sadcore.

Anyway, here are some sadcore records I've been diggin:

  • Superwolf by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & Matt Sweeney
  • The Creek Drank The Cradle by Iron & Wine
  • From A Basement On The Hill by Elliot Smith
  • Elk-Lake Serenade by Hayden

    PS. Maybe I'll see you at the poetry reading tonight.

    PPS. Maybe I won't.

    PPPS. sniffle.

    You would probably like Ester Drang, definatly on the sadcore tip. Their drummer, James Mcallister is a friend of mine (and fellow MSF).

    James called last night, geeked, to tell me he's been in studio with Denison Witmer, Sufjan Stevens and Shara Worden among others. I haven't spoken to James in over a year, mention his name on a comment page and the phone rings hours later. Coincidence?
