It just sounds good...

Sometimes you find yourself in such a musical rut that you begin to wonder if every new band is going to be a slightly more disappointing version of the latest 80's, new wave, post-punk, dance-rock, Franz Arctic mish mosh.

Then the latest edition of Magnet arrives in your mailbox and the tides turn...for no good reason at all except for the fact that sometimes it takes a solid, quality music mag to lead you to surfing the web checking out random new releases and reminding yourself of your favorite albums...the ones that make you step back and say...ahhhh, yes...I do like music.

One thing led to another tonight and I was ecstatic to discover that Bexar Bexar has released a new album, entitled "Tropism." I was fairly certain that BB was no longer in existence after their debut release on Western Vinyl three years ago. But here I sit tonight, listening to the graceful, dreamy sounds of a genius who can craft sounds that will entertain my ears for the next 3 years and the next 3 years... Thank you Bexar...and you Bexar.
