hot damn. If you have the chance, go see jets to brazil on their short u.s tour. Absolutely the best live show I've seen in months. Finally a record that I've waited for has pulled through, the new jets is everything it should be and more. There are no skippers, and I've played it for a lot

Deathcab For Cutie vs. Sonic Youth? I'm laughing already... I'll go out on a limb here and say that if you think Deathcab For Cutie is a better band than Sonic Youth (live OR in the studio), you should be beaten within an inch of your life. Not really, but I can't imagine a pro-deathcab

yeah, i read House of Leaves and kinda dug it. It's overlong, overwritten, has possibly one too many self-indulgent spots, but if you get all the way to the end it actually works really well, is kind of moving, etc. Danielewski isn't much of a writer; he's more of an experiment guy, i.e.
