is it just me, or does the mouse seem like a deer in headlights being on a
major label?
the billboard feature is little uneasy, plus the packaging is a bit much.
but maybe i'm over-reacting.
i love the new album, but i guess i'm just worried that they'll get squashed
in the major-label cycle.

one of these days we're going to be so "politically correct" we won't even

the new album rocks.
