Introduction: music is my savior. no, really!

So, this is the introductory post of my brand new music blog, Sugary Sweet Machine. The title comes from the Neutral Milk Hotel song Oh Comely. I have to give credit where it's due: I was inspired by the fact that my boyfriend said if he ever had a band, he would call them the Sugary Sweet Machines. And I really can't argue with that! In any event...

There won't be any particular format I'll stick with for this blog, it's for the most part tidbits from the music world that I find interesting in some way. I'll include my own record reviews, open letters to various bands/musicians, and most likely I'll occasionally post mp3's that I find to be worth listening to. This is my first adventure into the world of Blogspot, so please, be gentle! I come from the world of Livejournal (http://www.livejournal.com/users/redbaroness) where it's all quite different. I hope whoever stumbles across this finds my writing enjoyable, or at the very least, mildly amusing. I could be trite and list my top five current favorite bands/records/etc., but again, I find that a bit trite so I shall digress. And I'm certain that my favorite bands/artists will become clear very early on. So enjoy, one and all!
