Consider Yourself Warned

 I'm hungry. Thinking that the cucumber/pineapple salad as discussed in the previous post should be perhaps properly chilled by this time and therefore twice as refreshing as before. I wish I had some crusty bread to go with it. That's kind of beside the point though. This is alleged to be a music blog, not an Instagram page about my eating habits. Right? Right!? Blood River Melodies (2005) The Knotwells . It's not bluegrass since the gatekeepers of that particular genre are very particular about what qualifies and make the average record store clerk/keeper of the current hipness seem entirely reasonable. I'd be hard pressed to call it New Grass either. Since that's a randomly bullshit genre invented by the people who want to play Bluegrass style music, but aren't pompous assholes with fixed rigid ideas of what qualifies. It's got some punk/rock attitude. It also has fucking banjos. Take heed of that.
