It’s Eclipse Day! If you don’t have any plans on how to view the Total Solar Eclipse, maybe swing over to Third Man Records and watch the Weather Warlock summon the event with his weather machine? Or go to one of the many Eclipse Viewing Parties around town? There’s a ton of them, just be sure to wear the damn glasses.Â
Might I suggest some local music for your viewing experience? These should put you in an appropriately spacey headspace:
Coupler – Sunless: electronic music from an album entitled Sunless. Need I say more?
Penicillin Baby – Who Cares: just the right amount of pop, rock and headtripping psychedelia.Â
All Them Witches – Dying Surfer Meets His Maker: with tracks like “Call Me Star†and “Talisman†you’ll be in good hands here as the moon breaches our energy source.
Jonesiii from the Moon – The Moon is Watching Us: prefer a little hip-hop to accompany the sun occulting? Jonesiii got you covered.
And remember, in 1.4 billion years, the moon will have creeped further away from the Earth and won’t be large enough to even cover the face of the sun. So, consider yourself lucky.
