i dont think i do tho.  i looked through my post history and it seems recently it's been half and half between one-liners and 2-paragraph posts but i feel like beyond the first page of my history, there are probably 80% one-liners.  i can be pr. fuckin wordy tbh.  i get it from my dad but it only comes out TEXTUALLY as i am relatively brief when talking :///


also electro-dance-punk fuck all that.  i don't want to make blanket statements but ELECTRO//DANCE//PUNK or any combination of these three genres kind of grates on me at this point.

I've been listening to Jesus and Mary Chain and My Bloody Valentine for the first time in my life the past couple of days. They are okay. I think I like Jesus and Mary Chain better but that song Sometimes by My Bloody Valetine was really good.

I've got Have A Nice Life's Deathconsciousness album. The lyrics are really, corny? I dunno, I just don't like them and I've always found the aethetics of these groups to be half cool and half intolerable so I've got a conflict going on deep inside about this kind of music. I checked out A Place To Bury Strangers and it was too noisy. The other bands mentioned in the first post look really really annoying and I'm not gonna listen to a band called To Kill A Petty Bourgeosie. I'm just not prepared to do that.

I thought shoegaze was slower and closer to soundscrapes than it is. Like a more distorted kind of post-rock or something. If JAMC and MBV are the starters of this genre though I guess I was mistaken!
