You mean "Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever"? I like it. "Greet Death" has some crunchy guitar work, "Have You Passed Through This Night?" has a film-dialogue sample which I think might be the only non-instrumental stuff on any of their albums, and the last song is a 12 minute epic.
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Why I love Joe Pernice, Reason #6596: [link]
An excerpt:
"Don't be clumsy. Don't be clumsy. Don't be clumsy," I said, whispering so as not to wake the kid. Then I started singing the Duran Duran tune "Clumsy Like the Wolf" in my head. That's not the funny part. While I emptied the rest of the dishwasher, I could not fathom how Duran Duran had such a huge smash hit with a hook as stupid as clumsy like the wolf. Were wolves known for being unusually clumsy?
The post is about William Gibson. Really.

I wonder if the Chuckie the Skunk he mentions is the Chuckie the Skunk I know? Can there be two?

Two Chuckie the Skunks In Canada? Not likely, I'd say! Chuckie the Moose, maybe.

It is a big country. And yet, everyone seems to be separated by two degrees. I know that the Chuckie I know, knows Joe Pernice's wife.

According to David Barker's facebook, Haruki Murakami is translating the 33 1/3 Pet Sounds book into Japanese. That's just fucking awesome on so many levels.
