Unf, The Sounds. Unf, Maja.
(Seriously, Maja kinda robs me of all higher brain functions. But I do like their stuff.)
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Also, a band I love that is tangential to bandom: has anyone heard The Sounds?
The Sounds are good stuff! I've seen them live, too, with Kill Hannah and Ima Robot. Fun times. I have the first album (with "Seven Days a Week").

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Plei or anyone else, do you have any This is Ivy League you'd be willing to share? Neither itunes or Lala are giving me any love with them.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Okay, I've been poking around MCR and FOB this weekend.
I really am not feeling it for FOB. They irk me massively. "Thnks Fr Mmrs" (or however the vowel-less song title is spelled) drives me fucking BATSHIT. I violently dislike their cover of "Beat It," and "Dance Dance" did not, in fact, make me want to dance.
Although Amy sent me "Sugar, We're Going Down," which I *really* like. So, there's that.
MCR, on the other hand, is pretty catchy and fun. I listened to "I'm Not Okay" at the gym yesterday about 5 times in a row, because it's SO perfect on the elliptical. "Teenagers" made me laugh my ASS off, in a good way. I'm not crazy about the way "Welcome to the Black Parade" is structured, but I really dig the last half or so of it.
So, I may have to buy "The Black Parade." Or at least some of the songs.
IOnonbandomN, I blame goddamn NPR for making me want to buy the new Gnarls Barkley. They reviewed it the other day, and it sounds really good, in an old-school soul way, a la Amy Winehouse (ish).

Oh, and the lead singer of MCR (at least when he has black hair)? Looks eerily like Deena's son Nick.

Because books.
"Sugar, We're Going Down" is so good. I can send you a few more if you want. You might like "Seven Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen)," too.
You'll probably like the earlier MCR stuff, as well, Tep. I don't know if anyone sent you any of that, but I can if you want.
No Panic love?

I haven't gotten to them beyond the 2 you sent me, which were catchy. I need to check them out a little more thoroughly.
And -- send me whatever you think I'd like. Thanks!!!

No, you're right! And I see a pretty sj in that first picture!
Will send more music shortly.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Nope, Steph, not at all. But it makes me feel like a dirty old woman to think that. So I repress it. But Nick can totally give a pre-Gerard vibe.
