Adam Green
For your grab-n-go consideration
Come on. I know what you’re up to. I know why you’re here. I’m even betting that you aren’t even reading this.
More than likely, you’re making the rounds of the MP3 blogs, looking for some links to free music. Kind of like a fanboy at a comic convention. You bounce around from kiosk to kiosk, giving quick glances over the stuff on display, but you’re exclusively interested in whatever free swag is available at the current table. You hoard as much as you can, blindly accumulating buttons, stickers, pens, notepads, magnets, and countless other promotion knickknacks, completely indiscriminate about their provenance or what the brand is all about. Then you head home and spread out all your stuff on your couch to photograph it, taking both wide and close up shots, to show off the size of your stash on your Flickr account.
But, hey, rabid MP3 enthusiast, at least I can console myself that you’re going to end up with an Adam Green track. You’ll get to enjoy the distinctly catchy pop concoction of Morning After Midnight as Green breaks into a kitschy 1970s soulful swash, brass blaring and gospel backup vocals acclaiming. The whole thing is swarthed in Green’s deep masterful voice, which makes you feel sophisticated by association, and his aura of irony, which keeps the ridiculous, pointless lyrics wholly relevant throughout this cheese saturated AM-era powerhouse.
You’ll enjoy it; if you ever really do listen to it.
