It's been a while since I've heard nice hooks like this. They remind me a bit of XTC. (I wonder if there's an Andy Partridge influence here...) If you appreciate good songcraft, this is a definitely a band to follow. If the ideas here are good now, then it's worth keeping an ear pressed to their future work.

When I first signed on to MOG, all of 11 weeks ago, I spent a little while getting used to being a mute. As I soon found out it would take awhile for other MOGgers to come around to my brand of BullShit that at times seems to roll endlessly off of my finger tips.

Recent events have led me to believe that one of the failings of any blog site, including MOG, is that there's no clear way to know why someone hasn't responded to a message. So, since I clearly have time on my hands, I came up with one for me. It's kinda similar to the Active/Away/DoNotDisturb I use on IM.It goes as follows: I'm sleeping.

I'm not entirely sure how this works yet...at all...but I have to say that since it is 4:07 and I am no closer to sleep than I was 4 hours ago I might as well take this time and try something new. Anything to do with music = great by me. So, hey there world. If you love music I like you already. Cheers. Well let's see here. I am definitely in one of my Pinback moods. If you catch me up, high strung and typing away, I'm probably listening to Pinback. Something abo... MORE
