A much longer, real entry comes tomorrow, when I return to all things me.
But for now... you know those moments when you fall in love with a band? Sometimes they aren't the first time you hear the CD and sometimes they aren't the 100th time you hear it. Sometimes, you fall in love with a band when something major happens in your life and you seek out the music to play behind it, and emotional landscapes snap into place with melodies and harmonies.
When you find the perfect music, the music that not only accompanies and illuminates your experience, but brings a fullness to it... when that perfect music is played over and over and over without stop until it echoes long after the experience... that's a special kind of love long beyond any crush.
Death Cab for Cutie, thank you. I wouldn't have made it without you. Welcome to eternal heavy rotation.

So thanks. And I'm glad they're doing what they're doing for you right now. That's music at its best that is.
The only other "new" band (*) I've liked a lot recently are Bark Psychosis. Have you heard any of their stuff?
(*) They've been around for aeons also - I'm just a bit slow on the uptake

Followed by a set of CDs that are being planned for a burning session even as we speak.
Fear not! Thou wilst have music!
Um,

maybe it is wiser and more effective to focus on the immediate future.
