In The Rut
I have not been very inspired by music lately. I do not mean that I'm not listening, oh I am, but while everything seems "ok" nothing has really gotten me going the way it used to. I'm not sure if this is a change in the structure of my brain or simply a lack of inspiring new artists.
Even now, as I look at the lists of who is playing CMJ this weekend I'm not feeling particularly excited. I'm more excited to feel New York in the fall and see friends than discover a new sound. Oh yeah... I'm headed to CMJ. Maybe something can shake me out of my musical rut. (fingers crossed)
My Life Story - The New New Yorker
The Dears - Dream Job
Hercules - Something's Been Missing From My Life
Buy some: Pernice Brothers, My Life Story, The Dears, Hercules

I know the feeling. There's not much to get really excited about lately. I do like the new Sea and Cake album a lot, though.

I think the answer to your dilemma can be found in that picture on the post...no matter how creepy it is.
Go to your standards, the music you'll always love - and just take a break from it all.
One of my standards is James Brown.
good luck
