Heavy Is The Heart That Is Ill
I sit here at work holding a cup of green tea in one hand, typing with the other, and all the while trying to get lost in some music. My body may be on this world, but it did an exceptional job of fooling me a few times during my walk downstairs as I stepped [...]

Well, I found out about a The Dear Hunter show that’s happening this Wednesday at Harpers Ferry and I want to go pretty bad. I’m glad it’s general admission, cause otherwise I probably [...]
Currently Listening To XI…
Editors – An End Has A Start This album came out this year, I gave it a listen based on somebody recommending it to me, BAM, I’m in love. I checked out their 2004 release, The Back Room, while also quite good, it just doesn’t have the same appeal to it as this year’s album. [...]
