A Letdown Squid 6

"Burn a Miracle" - Say Anything

New track released today from my favorite band, Say Anything, and their upcoming album, Anarchy, My Dear. Sounds a lot like Max Bemis’ earlier stuff.  This track has been on repeat for the last hour.

A Letdown Squid 3
Christmas. It always comes too early. I’m not a big fan of this season, the needless spending, the ugly decorations, the insincerity, how misinformation and this vague correlation between the birth of Jesus and this particular day, many of its traditions drawn from pagan faiths, manages to suffocate anyone who isn’t Christian in this blanket of tinsel and glitter. But most of all I hate the music, with the exception of 12 songs, now playing on my Spotify Playlist: X-Mas: Holiday Songs I Don’t Hate! (NSFW)

Max and Sherri and Chad and Haley

 

 I had no idea that Say Anything and New Found Glory were feuding, that Chad Gilbert (NFG) was married to Sherri Dupree of Eisley or that he cheated on her with Haley Williams (Paramore). Sherri, of course, is now married to Max Bemis of Say Anything, one of his past albums, In Defense of the Genre, featuring all four of them. This puts so many songs on my ipod in context, “Misery Business” and “Smarter” for example.  It all makes sense now… I am wasting my life.
