I will never wander the Mediterranean for ten years. I will never have to lash myself to the mast of my own boat, nor can I imagine a set of circumstances in which I will personally offend Poseidon. So, there is this. This is my odyssey.
I am going to listen to every single album on my iPod, once a day, for however long it takes, and do a write-up for it here, for you. This will assuredly take over a year; over a year's worth of daily music reviews for you, and potentially new viewpoints, revelations, and experiences for me (providing I finish, of course). I will write a few paragraphs, assign it a score on the Pitchfork scale (1-10, with decimals), and you can all discuss and pitch in and chat.
It may end up not being daily, ultimately. It may end up not being every album, ultimately. We'll just have to see where it goes.
Ground rules: Only the music on my iPod. I have the Velvet Underground's White Light / White Heat on vinyl, but it's not on my iPod; it doesn't get a write-up. Furthermore, no compilations or EPs, with very few exceptions. It would simply be overwhelming otherwise (more so than it already is). I will go strictly alphabetically; no cheating, even when I'm wading through my relatively thick Beatles and Sonic Youth catalogues (to name only two).
I think those are all the rules. This is gonna be an adventure, gang.
Tomorrow, expect my write-up for Air's Moon Safari. Let's go!
