song of the moment - Primetime Deliverance

I never really liked it much until now. I was too shocked by some of the lyrics to look at the whole song. The lyrics are truly genious. I love it!

Anti-song of the moment - Hello Timebomb

This is probably just because i already heard this countless number of times before i got the cds. SO now it is just kind of... boring.

Songs of the Moment: Strange Days/Under the Influence

I'm in love with Strange Days.. it's just soo good. Under the Influence has a really cool sound and excellent lyrics.

Anti-Song of the Moment: Advertising on Police Cars

That song is so amazing, but I think I overplayed it. :(

Yep, I was really confused because it said you had the last post, but then I saw Jess at the bottem of the page. It happens in alot of the really long threads, you have to add 20 to whatever the number is in the url. ex: http://www.clumsymonkey.net/phpBB2/view ... &start=680 would become http://www.clumsymonkey.net/phpBB2/view ... &start=700.

Or.. you can go the "Last Post" column at the far right and click on the white page thingy. I figured that out not too long ago, very useful. :mrgreen:

Advertising is such a great song.


I absolutely love Flashdance II especially when you combine it with the Man from Harold Wood.

You can really see how Loser Anthems inspired Avalanche. His creativity really started up, and it's such a great piece of work

almost anything matthew good is :drool: even lots of his ancient folky stuff, although i must admit some of it sounded alike
"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.

I think he got better with age. I'm not a fan of LOTGA really. It was the last album of his I heard and it just didn't feel like Matt.

He's in pre-production right now for his next album, and he sounds like he's really inspired, especially since he wants to make a documentary about the making of the album.

Matt has so many plans that don't go through. :lol: It's great fun. Remember that small venue I&I tour...Oh, good times :lol: [/slightly bitter]

Why the hell would Matt want to make a documentry about the making of his next album? Isn't he all about the "Art without entertainment"? :lol:
