Serendipity: It's not just an ice-cream parlor on the Upper East Side or a gloppy romantic comedy starring the very lovely Kate Beckinsale. Sometimes it happens right here on this very blog. Take yesterday, for example: I just received a new Flëur CD in the mail, titled Everything Is out of Control. The very next CD on the list to play? Death in June's Take Care & Control. Almost a conversation there between the two, with DIJ's Douglas Pearce in the hard-to-imagine role of reassuring advice giver to the two blond Russian women in Flëur. Way to talk them down, Doug.

And then on the 9th, DIJ's Cathedral of Tears was followed shortly after by John Foxx's Cathedral Oceans I. An ocean of tears? Cathedrals? It's almost too poetic.

On the 7th, Infekktion's New Virus was immediately followed by Pail's Epidemic. Stands to reason, I guess. And finally, the day before that, Narr!'s Souls Are Flying Now! preceded Angels & Agony's Salvation. Glad those souls are flying somewhere nice.

These are all within just the past week. There are probably tons of these coincidences throughout the list. I'll try to pay closer attention from now on.
