Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - "Bobby Malone Moves Home"

Casiotone has a direct line to my brain, like that place between your thumb and finger. That webby part, that kids in school told you would kill you if you cut it. Putting on Etiquette for a 7AM Sunday on a snowy highway, it's like a pressure point or something. Immediately paralyzing, all you see is white, all you feel is failure, all you want is that piano line to come back. Just please come back. [Pre-order]

Parenthetical Girls - "Here's to Forgetting"

Forgetting is something like burying, I think. It's not like the images and sounds you used feel just disappear, it's just that they get so weighted down by other things that you can't lift them up anymore. If you want to forget something or someone, how much other things do you need? About 6 feet worth should do. Lots of people are about 6 feet tall, so about one person's worth.
I feel like those little drums are little hands, digging down through the filler, down to those things. And there's amber light, rain streaks, and twisted sheets down there. [Buy]

The New World, go. It's one, big, beautiful and terrifying idea. This guy's the best thing to happen to movies since political strife.

I'm sure this is old news by now, but for the few of you left, go listen to the Ricky Gervais podcast. I heard about it through Goldkicks, of all places.
