I always make my students' brains explode when I point out the Spanish they never noticed in the Clash's "Should I Stay or Should I Go" and Beck's "Loser."
I do not understand you humans and your obsession with birthdays. A body is basically identical on the 364th and 365th days, and yet you act as if something is qualitatively different. However, I still hope a happy completion of solar revolution day to @Corycm and @Memo!
Looks like Sub Pop won't include download codes anymore... I got a recent release and I reached out to them thinking the card was missing, and they let me know they're moving away from including them.
I just remembered that some dude at a Reel Big Fish concert I went to back in the day proposed on stage, and now I'm randomly wondering how that couple's doing. Do they have little ska babies? Did they sell out?
Listening to Godspeed's new album while reading an Argentine gothic horror novel set during the military dictatorship (the horrors are as human and political as they are supernatural) is leading to some crazy dreams.
I have a box with 4 Godspeed You! Black Emperor albums on its way, so if I just disappear from the forum, don't worry... I'm OK, I've probably just dropped off the grid and joined an anarchist commune or something.
Just once, I'd like to see a series about a detective or doctor who has his or her personal life together in every way, but is really bad at their job.
