"The Art of Drowning" 2004-02-15 - 4:59 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj so today was Valentine's Day as I'm sure you've all heard meh I didn't get as depressed as I usually do on Valentine's Day my mind was more occupied between mind-numbing boredom and the fading rage at my bandmate I couldn't even watch tv because today is the day all the stations play sappy movies and I don't hate romantic movies in general but they play crappy ones but I mention this only to say that both NBC and USA played Law & Order: Special Victims Unit today a show about sex crimes on a holiday celebrating romance it's bloody brilliant so then I watched tv but mostly I just sat around bored I got AFI's 'The Art of Drowning' today which is excellent but as I listened to it; I realized that my band sounds more like AFI than the bands I was thinking we sounded like it's like a kind of equation for example; the Murderdolls can be broken down as such: if Glen Danzig and Billy Corrigan were able to somehow have a child, with Billy's voice and Danzig's creative ideas [except, y'know, crappy] and that child went on to front White Zombie instead of Rob Zombie [except, y'know, crappy] then you would get the Murderdolls [which are, y'know, crappy] my band can be broken down like this: if Paul Banks of Interpol had somehow become the frontman for AFI instead of Davey Havok [and their bassist was a douchebag; but that's neither here nor there...] and desperately tried to sound like Ian Curtis of Joy Division when he wrote his lyrics then you would get the Remaining and yes, I thought that whole sequence up earlier and waited all day to write it down in here because I'm a very pathetic person with a very pathetic life and do you know what the saddest part is? this is the highlight of my day Oh Somebody Kill Me Please Adios Amigos � � |
