Not even a combination of things I particularly go for, but it seems to do something for me right now.

Teams vs. Star Slinger..? They can"t make something bad.
IS INTERNET MAKING MUSIC BETTER?
No, Real talk though...Music is at a very good point. I was thinking about this today. People used to put up with some awful shit. When I only had the radio and the music press to base my music buying decisions, it was hard to get to hear a lot of really good things. Now, with online discussion, filesharing & social networks, blogs, etc.. I can be a lot more choosy. I'm getting to hear things, old and new, that I'd never have known about otherwise. "Live Music Discovery"--> Things like Shazam and Sound Hound apps for the iphone are fucking mind blowing, you can hum a song to your phone and it instantly gives you every bit of info from; release date to song lyrics. What about "Music Recommendation Services" such as Pandora, I Like, The filter, ITunes Genuis these things find music for you in a way that reflects an individual’s tastes and moods through unique algorithms. Shits endless.
So, the musicians themselves are in the same position, able to be exposed to so much more great stuff than they ever were previously. And maybe this gives them ideas, and makes them make better records.
I like to think so, anyway.
Take advantage of the internet.
Every so often music in general takes a turn for the better and starts getting really good. Now is that time!
