My latest fave rave musician is Josh Rouse. It’s not the kind of music that hits you over the head with it’s incredibleness the first time you hear it, but I find myself playing his stuff over and over. Simple lyrics have a way of hitting home. Here’s a link to his terrible homepage. Doesn’t anyone know how to design a webpage that people actually want to use?
Here’s three tracks. The first one is pretty energetic (and was on Seventh Heaven or one of those interchangable teenage angst shows), the other two are more typical.

The White Trash Period of my Life (Look it up and buy it)
Update: I took down some links because it was sucking up too much bandwidth. I’m also through with Josh Rouse. I went to see him live and he was incredibly boring. He has a lot of so-so and good songs but after a while none of them were all that memorable.
