If I go to a concert or sporting event I usually go in a VIP entrance. And leave the same way.

People desire to separate their worlds into polarities of dark and light, ugly and beautiful, good and evil, right and wrong, inside and outside. Polarities serve us in our learning and growth, but as souls we are all.

Nowhere so busy a man as he than he, and yet he seemed busier than he was.

[...] “Sunday Bloody Sunday” U2/Saul Willams (feat. Trent Reznor) Taylor at T-SidesÂ did a post on the new Saul Williams album with the “Pay what feel like paying” price tag for downloading.Â I did download it and there was a cover of “Sunday Bloody Sunday”Â in theÂ song list.Â So, why not compare the two versions and see how the cover holds up to the original.

I completely understand – when I first heard it, I was taken back by just how Trent Reznor it is – but when you think about his last album and how harsh some of the beats were, it’s not really an unnatural progression for Saul. It’s very, very Trent, but I think there’s still plenty of Saul all over it. I would have been curious to see if he could’ve progressed to something similar on his own, but I don’t know that he would of. I think this bodes well for his next work, too – hopefully he’ll have learned some new tricks from Trent and take those in his own direction.

I can’t say I’m completely digging the new album, especially with it being produced by Trent Reznor. But there are some gems on there: I’m especially enthralled with “Black History Month”. Respect to the “Radiohead model” of distribution, too.

Okay, I heard the first 4 tracks, and thought they were pretty good. For some reason, I was expecting Sunday Bloody Sunday to go in a different direction, but for the most part, it remained close the original. I do like Convict Colony, but since I haven’t given the entire album a spin, I’m sure there are other songs I’m going to warm up to.

Yes, really! And it works. It was a ballsy move, but I think he pulled it off.

I’ve always been more of a fan of his written work than his music although I definitely liked “List of Demands (Reparations)”. I’m definitely giving this a shot, but really? “Sunday Bloody Sunday”? Really?
