I remember staying up to watch 120 minutes as a kid...or setting a vhs tape to record 120 minutes...back then....it was one of the few outlets for someone to discover underground music. then the internet broke everything out.....and now there is too many bad bands getting noticed. funny how that works.
regardless.....ive never heard anything else from this band or what they are about or what they are doing now. i always thought that was kinda odd to be honest.....the video is really cool although i have no idea how it ties into the song....then again ive never been one to look for the deeper meaning in a song...let alone a video....people would always say they knew what cobain was writing about...well what if he was really writing about nothing and had all you deeper meaning people fooled.....that would be much to my delight for being a douche and trying to find something that isnt there.
i believe this band and song to be about two to three years ahead of their time...its just the kids weren't ready for it...or so it seems....i bought this cd on amazon for i think 50 cents.....granted this and two other songs are the only good songs on the cd....i think this song still stands out and is pretty good...kinda has a weezer feel to it....something kinda metrosexually indie....nothing that you could really rock out live...but maybe jam a little to while shaving or slapping on some aqua vela aftershave.......maybe after that...walk around in your towel for an hour with your hair slicked back.....listen to the cd all the way through.....do some jumping jacks....put on your favorite flannel......a pair of blue jeans....and lay in your twin size bed and cry.....that how i could see the night going when you start out listening to this song.......
the point is....i know alt music was better when i was a kid....i talk about this all the time....i really do...i mean cmon. the bravery......hawthorne heights....all the other screamotional bands....seems a bit ridiculous to me.
there is a formual for everything now....even what im doing musically.....there is a formula....or a tradition to follow. what do you wanna do....do you wanna be an inde rocker...wearing tight clothes....reffering to your music as art.....talking about a song like its a sculpture...being overly tolerant of anything and everyone...or do you wanna be a screamo kid. which is pretty much just designer goth.....we all have choices to make in life. and these are the important ones....so whats it gonna be...indie....or designer goth?.....you cant choose punk....because its like jehovah's witness...there are only so many people getting in. and im pretty sure if you havent figured out by now that you are punk......then you never will be. but thats okay....dont cry...whatever you do....dont freak out....you're identity crisis will only last a couple years.
