I Love Josephine! (The band, not the girl)

In July of 2008 three beautiful girls ad some instruments were united and formed the post punk band known as Josephine.  Main vocals and guitar provided by Xtina Rubio, bass plucking done by Leigh Regan, and Tracy Thompkins on the drums.  The first click of the play button brings on the raspy voices similar to those of The Donnas, and tunes influenced by Johnny Cash and Pat Benetar.  These chics obtain the ability to have rappers rockin' out, especially with Xtina's pulse-like strumming in "Down to the sea."  If one finds themselves trying to make sense of some lyrics don't feel bad, Josephines' endowment of true poetic utterance is simply complimented by their acoustic mastery.  But "Billy's song" is simple yet so powerful, and is perfect for those down days.  There is something for all; from the lyricists and poets to the head bobbers.  Support the short but strong EP and definitely keep your ears on the lookout for these girls!

Music & The S-Factor

Music. We all love it, can't deny that. What type of music are you into? Personally I like anything that sounds good, and I'm more into the beat than anything. I listen to Hip Hop, Reggaeton, Alternative, even some Country here and there!

I was having a discussion with someone about a song they just recorded. It was a female, and a remix she did of a song taking a dudes virginity. Now there's numerous songs out there that are pretty vulgar. This song didn't go overboard but it was enough. I personally don't enjoy songs that are about nothing but sex and what not. If theres a line here and there then hey, its cool. But what kind of music is that really, that all you talk about is f*cking?

Do you guys like stuff like that? Am I wrong? Sex sells, and it is a part of life but why get into profane details about it in a song?

Music ain't the same anymore. I like listening to reality, same way I like non-fiction books. Be real. Tell a story. Back in the day Hip Hop had substance. What does it have now?
