Previously on Against Me!: Front-man Tom Gabel spends three albums singing about the commercialisation of rock music and how he stands against everything they stand for. Then, he and the rest of the band sign for a major label, kiss up to the MTV crowd and call all their old fans douchebags for having the audacity to question their hypocrisy.

I've talked about my inner lesbian numerous times, but my last Tegan and Sara show was a real bust and I think I might have kicked her to the curb for a bit after that. Well, she's back...back with a vengence. I told you last year that I was not ashamed to love Against Me!'s New Wave , and I still love it. I don't listen to it as much as I was back then, but it still finds some spins. T...

Against Me! protests and documents. But they also ask questions, even about the usefulness of protest or of asking questions about the usefulness of protest.

[10-11-2008] In the last 5 years, we've seen Death Cab for Cutie become a household name; we've seen "emo" become a term that people, who weren't alive when "Friday I'm In Love" came out, apparently know enough about to debate its meaning on their blogs; and bands like The Arcade Fire have seen enough money to seriously call into question the relevance of independent rock 'n' roll in 2008. Bu...

I'm really diggin this track, and band. I read a review by Rawkiddoh a while ago, and picked it up at my benevolent library. I wont claim any expertise on the band, but I really like the straightforward nature of the music, smart lyrics, and just good ol' rock n' roll. So is it ironic that I've uploaded this track, being what it's about? Or is it just stating that of course music has no value...

--- - |- I really do love this band. New Wave was easily one of my favorite albums last year and still is. Can't wait to see Against Me! live again. They pay homage to The Replacement's Bastards Of Young in this new video directed by Justin Staggs. Against Me "New Wave" -------------------------------------------------------- ~~- Against Me!

It amazes me how easily people can cast others out of their lives and not seem to think anything of it. This summer I lost a close friend, no reason given for the ending of our friendship just a stoppage of all communication and I am left to wonder why. I never understood why people do this, there are other facotrs in the equation when it comes to a relationship. Yet, it seems to happen to me m...

After months of waiting I finally got my hands on the new Against Me! album, and needless to say it blew me away. I will have to write an review on it, but right now I am enjoying listening to it for the first time. Its like nothing they have ever put out, and by far the best album I have heard this year. Nothing like an early birthday present for me, gotta say thanks to the boys of Against Me!...

Hello MOG, thought I would take this time to tell you about my first. I have been on MOG for close to a year, and almost everyone who knows me knows about this site. I have pleaded with people, telling them to just try it out and for the most part I have not had any takers. Then over the weekend I get a message from a friend who finally decided to take the plunge. Alas, I had lost my cherry and...

On Thursday I had another sweltering day of summer school. I say sweltering because the temperatures here in Minnesota are nearing the mid 90's and the school I am teaching at has no air conditioning what so ever. By the time the kids arrive at 8:30 in the morning I usually have a good sweat going, and the sun has not even really come up yet. Every teacher knows as well that once the heat goes ...
