I Think I Have A New Favorite Band
01.24.07 (10:26 am) [edit]I was poking around for Hunter Thompson videos and ran across something I hadn't heard before - a song based loosely around a bit in Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas called Bat Country, by Avenged Sevenfold.
The video made me nearly piss myself laughing. When the Great Red Shark was coming down the highway sporting giant bat wings, I fell in love with Avenged Sevenfold.
I know what *I'M* gonna be downloading...
Love,
Dougie
PS Apparantly this was a recent big hit and has been all over MTV. Which shows what happens when you get old and stop watching TV and listening to the radio. Funnily enough, I had not only heard of them (but not heard them until just beofre writing this post) I just remembered that a few months back when I was looking for new shit that my students might be into, I checked their album out of the library and MP3'd the damn thing without listening to it. Now I just have to find the fucking disc I burned it to and listen to them.
