Anti Pop is great :D

As is Weapon, though I probably wouldn't call it funny.
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I noticed something earlier. In the Night Opus, the girl's called Jenny but in Jenni's Song it's changed to an I.

Does anyone know which came first?

Cos if the story was first and he then changed it to the way his future wife spelled it (and I'm thinking this was before he even met her) that would be a bit wierd.

i like their sence of humor too
"How can we justify spending so much on destruction and so little on life?" Matthew Good

"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911

"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

ya I don't read their magazine, but the online news is pretty good. I'm guessing different people are in charge of the net aspect.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

i've only seen the ones that were on his site. is there another site where i can see all the videos?
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

Not on a site, as far as I know, but loads of his videos are available on the hub. At least, that's where I got most of them.

can't wait to see where else he is playing in the East.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

Plus, I don't live near them. :P
