Gone are the days that I discover new bands on my own. Here’s yet another new love found on a mix made by my good friend Steve. I don’t know anything about them. This track is from a split 7″, which indie rock bands, which still apparently exist, still do together, which makes me happy. [...]

I have a lot of work to do. I’m throwing an end-of-the-semester / end-of-my-comps party for English dept. friends, and they’re due to arrive in t-minus eleven hours. I’m expecting ten, maybe twelve people. I have low expectations. So: rather than clean and go food shopping, why not try to figure out the guitar chords [...]
