I Think I Have A New Favorite Band
02.23.06 (10:52 am) [edit]The Mars Volta. Holy fucking shit on a stick. I have nothing particularly intelligent to say about them right now, but Deloused In The Comatorium has been fucking with my brain more and more in the week since I first listened to it, and their live album Scabdates is currently making me drool. I have more of their stuff (my library rocks) waiting for me. It's like some crazed modern prog-thing I can't really quite describe right now. But I like it a HELL of a lot. Love, Dougie

You sure did. I thought of you when I saw these at the library. I'm listening to the Tremulant EP right now, and heard Francis The Mute for the first time a few hours ago in the car. The heavy Hwakwind/Radiohead vibe, the psychotic guitar stuff, the killer grooves...holy fuck. I'm in love. I havne't been this excited since the night the Vaseline and rhubarb shipment came in.
Hey, how's the married thing going? Haven't heard from you since the wedding. Which was killer. Thanks for inviting me. you guys look great together.
