Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

West Coast Smoker, although I couldn't hear her either.

I heard her right at the end, finally, when she wasn't hiding behind Patrick.

Because books.

I *think* I hear her?

What's your favorite so far, Sophia? Ailleann and I have been squeeing over them all for two days now.

I think it is the end of wams with patrick as blue grass artist. I want a whole album!

But of the Fall Out Boy-type stuff Stuff, I still like America's Suitehearts and also the Disloyal Order of the Water Buffalo.

Coffee's For Closers is, I think, already burned into my brain.

Because books.

I love Disloyal Order, too. And Tiffany Blews. 20 Dollar Nosebleed is my favorite, though, because it makes me squee to hear Brendon and Patrick together.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I haven't listened to the new FOB yet. I probably will today, unless I get completely absorbed by listening to the Repo! The Genetic Opera soundtrack. (No, I haven't seen the movie yet. But lots of my friends really liked it AND liked the soundtrack, so I blew an iTunes gift card on getting it.)

Fall Out Boy is a group that I really really want to have the liner notes for. The words go by so quickly sometimes, and there's a lot of metaphorical gold in them thar tracks.

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

I gotta say, I hated "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet" when I first heard it, but now I can't get it out of my head. And that is one that it's really good to have the lyrics for.

I'm sure the critics will have the same stuff to say as they always do, but really I think this is some of their best work. It's eclectic and all over the place in some ways (seriously, only FOB would put songs like She's My Winona, What a Catch Donnie, and 20 Dollar Nose Bleed on the same album), but there's a lot of really interesting stuff happening, in a way that distances them from "punk-pop" and into a category all their own.
