New Found Glory - My Friends Over You
Can’t even tell you guys how much of my jam this was in like freshman year of high school. Serious.
Just checked last.fm and scoffed when I found out they released their seventh studio album last year.
Slash just covering up the fact that I owned four of them when I was 14.

VASELINE OVER THE LENSES!
PLAY: “Country Mile” // Camera Obscura
One of the most heinous things I found out today was that Camera Obscura is on their North American tour right now. More importantly, they will be playing in both Iowa City and Norman, Oklahoma, but not Boston.
They don’t love you like I love you.

Trying to find the English translation of this song has been the most fruitless task I’ve undertaken in the past week.
Might even surpass that time I tried to legitimize myself listening to *NSYNC that one time Isa walked in on me.
Anyway.
Just one of those want-to-cry-and-listen-to-a-JC-Chasez-ballad days, y’all!

Rolling it back to the Ryan and Marissa days. Although I was always for my homedog Seth.
Jewfro, fo sho.
PLAY: Carrchy // “Dream in Garden”
Despite being categorized by Chinese and Taiwanese fans as indie electronica, this twee band screams nothing else but high class, super-duper-über-Asian C-pop.
Fact: any song with injections of Beijing opera, erhu screeches, or something else off-kilter enough to distract from the diabetic sugar beats is considered “alt” over there.
Really keeping the culture legit, guys.

@ Crema Café. Does anyone else have a problem with El Perro del Mar getting shafted to the local YMCA?

Post punk and predictable and I like it like that.
PLAY: “”Pulling Our Weight” // The Radio Dept.
for being honest that “Stockholm Syndrome” by Muse is hands down, no-debate, absolutely better than Yo La Tengo’s song of the same name. Sorry you couldn’t handle the truth, you dirty hipster.
P.S. Remember the days when “doofus” and “buttmunch” totally sufficed? Can’t keep up with the kids these days.

Hey, music industry, whaddaya say we go back to when I was 17, when music wasn’t sucktastic and also did not involve appropriating/bastardizing Imogen Heap and fronting one of her best songs with a Jagged Edge-wannabe? Yeah? Aww, you’re so sweet—knew you’d understand.
CHOP TO IT.
