To be fair, 4’33 isn’t meant to be silence. It’s meant to be the ambient noise of wherever the listener happens to be. It sounds like Thom flat out wants the silence to be the point here.

I agree. Maturing to the point where you have a better understanding of how you want to live your life is the sign of a huge douchebag. Idiot.

These guys are quickly becoming my favorite band ever.

I still want a new album, but this will definitely tide me over. I never got a chance to see The BQE, so technically this is new material for me.

What happens to Blanket now?
:(

The Free Willy song was my first real exposure to music as an interest.

I’m looking forward to it. Air is one of those bands that have always been interesting to me. Not necessarily awesome, but always something I’m willing to listen to a given moment.

On a different topic, my God at the freakin’ home page. I had to scroll halfway down just to get to the posts.

Is it still cool to dislike popular things? Okay, just checking. I thought this was a great performance by a great band.

I’m a fan of both, but this just doesn’t work. Conor’s lyricism doesn’t fit with the Killers’ synthy style. When Conor swells on the line “but when great Satan’s gone…” and the Killers just keep the exact same beat, you know it’s not good.

It would seem we are already there.

FINALLY.

Now put out that next album Suf! At this rate, you’ll get to state #50 at around 150 years old.

It’s like a Funny Aneurysm. It’s hilarious when he’s out on the porch shooting the breeze with his own grandfather, but then it’s not funny when his son asks him to be referred to as his uncle, and suddenly it was never funny to begin with.

If you’re waiting until this deal to get this album, you probably won’t like it anyway.

It’s nothing spectacular, but I like it a lot. And I guess that’s good enough for me.

Number one album belongs to Sigur Ros.

And more people need to start watching Supernatural. Seriously, if that show was a women, I would ask it out and be turned down.

I’m happy people are finally coming (back) around to The Killers. Even if they don’t admit it.

Hm. I’m usually a big fan of the Killers, but this definitely is pretty forgettable. Every album has its misses.

When the Government foots the bill, they’re going to put you on the cheapest solution possible, even if it isn’t the best one.

I like it. Reminds me of the Hot Fuss album art a bit.

Yeah, universal health care! Let’s let the Government decide the best way to treat our dying family!

Are you aware what a traveling salesman is? The guys that come to your door with the OMG LATEST VACUUM?

Is it just me, or does everybody hate the Killers unless they’re commenting on their current songs? Every post about them always gets the same response: “Oh I hate the Killers, but this songs not bad.” There comes a point where they’re not bad anymore, and you just have to admit it.

Thank God they’re back to synthy stuff.

Thank you for saying sike. I never would have caught the sarcasm without it!

Jesus Christ. I’m not a DMB fan, but did you people honestly just turn an obituary post into an argument about whether DMB is “cool” or not? Why don’t you go to a funeral and insult the corpses tux?

Michael Cera was typecasted two movies ago.
