adrian reviews everything: Hershey’s Kisses New York Cheesecake, Snickers Dark, new Iron & Wine
I thought I’d continue this reviewing everything while I still think it’s fun.
I like trying new candies and compact discs.
Hershey’s Kisses New York Cheesecake Flavored Creme Wrapped in Extra Creamy Milk Chocolate Wow. This is strange. Not great. Very sweet. Not enough of either flavor, really. It just ends up tasting really sweet and rather tasteless otherwise.
Snickers Dark Pretty good. Not as silky smooth as the milk chocolate version, but tastes good and has a sort of sweetness/ bite contrast to it.
Iron & Wine’s the Shepherd’s Dog Not good. Not even a shadow of his best work on Creek Drank the Cradle and Our Endless Numbered Days. Get Fionn Regan or any number of other artists instead.
Rivers Cuomo Alone I could hardly make it through this disc of demos from 1992-1997 (I think that’s the dates). Just buy the Blue Album or Pinkerton again…

You don’t like The Shepherd’s Dog? I really like that album. Do you not like the fuller ensemble that he plays with?
On a separate note, wedding planning is dying down in the next couple weeks. You should visit San Diego!

I didn’t like the Shepherd’s Dog at all. I don’t like the orchestration and the songwriting is weak.
I should visit San Diego. I have a busy couple months coming up. How’s mid-April for you?
