I just finished watching this film called Manic (thanks IFC) and i am in a momentary state of shock. It was so intense. It was shot to appear almost like a documentary which made the characters appear so personal. I was intrigued by the first few moments of the film and i became so drawn in and attached to the characters i was literally withholding sobs and shouts during the most dramatic scenes (im glad i watched it alone). The movie is about a manic depressive teen (... MORE
I feel like my lung are full of gross. Being this flu-ey is ruining my life. Especially since I just wanted to have a REALLY good weekend partying in Southampton and not sleeping and dancing and singing karaoke. OK, so I struggled through it all and did sing some karaoke, but really, I just wanted to be in bed with someone stroking my hair and pitying me.

Islands are forever...but I loved the Unicorns...how can you not after watching them....enjoy...
and the following if you really are a unicorn fan, you either get this or not, i love it.
i lift weights, but i don't sweat
i go for a swim, but i don't get wet
iiiii don't need a-ny-one, i'm a strong dead man/ lookin out for himself
i really wish the unicorns would reunite. islands are very good and all, but they just arent the unicorns. i remember when WWCOHWWG? first came out; it was unlike anything id ever heard. i also remember that they had a little side project called "The 'Cornn Gang" or something to that extent, i was never able to find any of that material though. if you might happen to know where i could, please let me know.
this band and this album is so good. how is that? i love that it is earnest yet ridiculous at the same time. ridiculous in the best way.
So today I was listening to the Islands for the first time and noticed an uncanny simialrity to the Unicorns... I think mostly it was the vocals and timely (or untimely) progression of instrumentals. Nonetheless agreeable. Not earth-shattering to any degree, but definitely melodramatically, jolly. I think the Islands are part of the Elephant 6 Collective... Let me know regardeless. Love to you all!
