Good evening universe, and welcome to another fantastically Sunday evening, here on Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice. This week has been just as hectic and inane as most other weeks of my existence, except this particular week is different. The reason this weekend is so very different, is because, for some unknown reason, Christmas is upon me. Now, I realize that it is still early November, and Christmas is a ways away. Still, something about the cold of this weekend, coupled with my 3534785430198571st viewing of A Christmas Story, has gotten me into the mood for Christmas. So, besides the regular new music goodness, today's post will include a very brief sneak preview, of what promises to be this years very extensive Christmas Mixtape.
First on the docket, we have a Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice favorite; The Decemberists.
Always The Bridesmaid; Never The Bride
The Decemberists have released their Always The Bridesmaid Vol.3 Single. The A-Side from said single, is a wonderful track entitled "Raincoat Song". It's very different from the other singles they have recently released, as it's very short, simple, and effectively sweet. Instead of giving you some inaccurate description of the song (it is objective, of course), you can listen to it here, via YouTube. Enjoy.
The Flaming Lips Share My Enthusiasm For Christmas! Yes!
I'm not even going to attempt to explain ...
The Flaming Lips YouTube Channel
The Movie's Website
The Wikipedia Page
By the looks of it (you can never really tell with those Flaming Lips) it's a movie! A science fiction movie! By The Flaming Lips! And it's about Christmas on Mars!
I'm pretty sure the unnecessary amount of exclamation marks, and the use of the words Flaming Lips and Christmas, are all you need to be convinced to buy this, or see it at the very least.
Free Radicals (Live) - The Flaming Lips
The Sneak Preview!
So, to cap off this incredibly short, and ultimately unsubstantial post, I'd like to give you a sneak preview of my Christmas Mixtape, which will be revealed in it's entirety (download-able form) in probably, about early to mid December. Voila ...
Once In David's Royal City - Sufjan Stevens
Silent Night - Tom Waits
Jinglebell Rock - The Arcade Fire
Hey Parker, It's Christmas - Ryan Adams
Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight) - The Ramones
It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas - Bing Crosby
... and, just to be a tease you can only download ONE of them. I know, I'm a jerk.
Have a wonderful evening.
Until Next Week?

Those who love Zeppelin will soon betray Floyd, I pass off these couplets in honor of the void.
Hello everyone, and welcome to another fantastic Tuesday evening, here on Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice. Today is not like any other Tuesday, though, it is a rather special Tuesday. For those of you who don't reside in the same country as I, which is probably a good number of you, you may not be aware that today is a holiday. Alas, today is Canada Day! So, I figured I would do what this blog generally does for holidays, no matter how big or small, and post a couple tracks that will aid you in your celebrations.

Between the Click of the Light and the Start of the Dream
Welcome once again guys, to another Saturday edition of Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice. It's me again, filling in for Norman as he mysteriously disappeared in the roads of nowhere and somewhere (Editor's Note: What the fuck is this man?). Anyhow, today we will be posting two songs; one from Arcade Fire's Neon Bible; and the other ny David Bowie featuring Queen (Or the other way, around I'm not sure). So, let's get started. Enjoy your night.
The Arcade Fire- No Cars Go
