Favorite Bands

• Radiohead
  • Official Site
  • Injektilo

• Violent Femmes, my longest-time favorite band, they totally revolutionized my taste in music. You think I'm exaggerating? You don't know what I listened to before the Femmes . . .

• Indigo Girls Their music has meant a lot to me, and if you ever have the chance to see them live, do it, it's about a trillion times better than any CD.

• Gipsy Kings, so so so good, from the moment I heard their album Mosaique, I was hooked. I owe all my love of Spanish music to the Gipsy Kings. Incidentally, I heard that the Gipsy Kings are THE POPE'S favorite band. As in John Paul II. Bizarre...

• Velvet Underground, cool band from a while ago, I like them a bunch.
  • Velvet Underground Pages
  • electricity comes from other plaNETs
  • All Tomorrows Parties

• Morrissey and the Smiths, double cool. Were they your voice in high school? Was Morrissey able to put the feelings you had into words? Join the sensitive poets club! Now go check out this Cemetry Gates site, it's really well done.

And some relatively newer favorite bands . . .

• Barenaked Ladies, they're just too funny, I can't wait to see them play up here in Boston!

• Pixies

• Los Hermanos Rosario

• whatever my beautiful and wise sisters (Hi Beth and Katie!) are listening to.
