I'm going to give you a list of my favorite bands now. I want you to bold the ones you've even heard.
Alkaline Trio, Our Lady Peace, Koufax, Kind Of Like Spitting, NoFX, The Lawrence Arms, The Blood Brothers, The Postal Service, Death Cab For Cutie, Rufus Wainwright, Weezer, Modest Mouse, Thursday, Brand New, Hot Rod Circuit, Bright Eyes, Braid, Fugazi, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, The New York Dolls, Elliott, Reggie And The Full Effect, From Autumn To Ashes, Murder By Death, The Dirtbombs, The Von Bondies, The Sights, Minor Threat, Flaming Lips
OK, you get the point. I'd like to see how many bands I like you've even heard so I can see how you have some sort of right to say that everything I listen to is just the same thing.
This is fun.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
