I do love this band, but their music on each album sounds too similar. Also, speeded isn’t a word, just wanted to share. Thanks for the videos!

As a big time fan of DCFC, it is strange to see what I consider to be arguably their worst release to date being their greatest commercial success.

If you want to see great DCFC check out their classic releases, Transatlanticsm and The Photo Album. You might be interested in Ben Gibbard’s side project The Postal Service if you like a more electronic sound.

There’s this new band that’s hitting the road nationwide – GrandPa and the MILF. Their repetiore is a somewhat tired rehash of themes played in a repetiive drone occasioned by the occasional shrill theme. GrandPa may or may not be up for the demands of the long haul and it doesn’t appear that the MILF is up to the demands of carrying the band. this tour looks to be short lived.

you guys should check out Bedroom Walls. they are a Los Angeles band…their last album did OK and got some media attention, but they are far less known than they should be. A total genius band, and their last album is stunningly great.

I hate to be rude but I live here and have no idea what a Christian bank is.

Obviously, it’s a bank that gets crucified on a Friday and arises a few short days after.

Integrity bank today in Alpharetta, GA was taken over by the FDIC. I live in Roswell but obviously we have branch banks in town. This comment in the AJC surprised me though “The Alpharetta-based bank, which opened its doors in 2000 with a Christian-centered philosophy, is the 10th U.S. bank to fail this year and the second Georgia institution to fail in the past 12 months.” I hate to be rude but I live here and have no idea what a Christian bank is. wtf…
