Rockabye Baby
38 weeks pregnant, swollen feet, acid reflux, sleepless nights, and an inability to get off the couch without assistance… ah the joys.
Obviously as a new mom I will be slightly obsessed (totally obsessed?) with all things baby but I will make an effort to maintain a balanced blog and not scare away those of you who are not of the mommy-blog persuasion!
To start out I’d like to introduce you to my little boy’s first albums:
You should definitely check out their website or iTunes; from Bjork to the Ramones to Tool the selection is very entertaining!

Radiohead + Studio = New Album!
Sources over at AtEaseWeb.com confirm that Radiohead will start working on a new album this coming winter! Despite earlier rumours that the band would not be releasing official albums Ed O’Brien has indicated that this is not accurate, they have not abandoned the album format (insert sigh of relief here!).
In actual fact they really like the ‘physicality’ of albums. I have to agree with Ed on that. The combination of art and the composition of songs that make up an album are definitely something I can appreciate. I still buy music online but I’d rather get my hands on it. I’m excited to discover where their winter in the country will take their music!
If the band is out there reading this… my offer of a home cooked meal and baked goodies when you’re in town stands.

Wild Things
Take Spike Jonze’s creativity and artistry and add to that Maurice Sendak’s incredible book “Where the Wild Things Are” and you have what promises to be a fantastic movie rich with imagination and emotion!
Have a peak at this newly released featurette about the movie over on the Apple site.
Movie is set for release on October 16th, 2009!
*Sadly I had to remove the embedded video as YouTube took it down due to violation of blah blah blah. Simply stupid that something created for promotional purposes is not available on such a widely used site.
