Furthermore, I call out Mr. Tubeway General for being unnecessarily harsh with his zero rating of Death Cab For Cutie.  Overrated indie band?  Most certainly, but a decent one nonetheless.

There's nothing wrong with liking a band that's with a major label. If it weren't for "popular" bands, what can we define our times with? We need something we can "ALL" identify with. We don't have to like something just because they're indie or not. All that matters is that you enjoy their music, period!

When I say "lady," I mean a physically mature female.


"Mature" would be an understatement here, Doms. 

Speaking of which...I really think you could do better.

Thanks, but I don't believe you could get better than the one you truly love. Why don't you try to find that?

There's a reason lust rhymes with "Rust."

Furthermore, I call out Mr. Tubeway General for being unnecessarily harsh with his zero rating of Death Cab For Cutie.  Overrated indie band?  Most certainly, but a decent one nonetheless.


Over-rated indie band? Most certainly. Awful indie band? Even more certain. Complete boring, pointless, overly-simple trite sh-t with dull metaphors and feeble attempts at stream-of-consciousness delivered in Ben Gibbard's weak, irritating voice? Absolutely.

Uh.. I don't think he was trying to be stream-of-consciousness like. Streams of consciousness would not fit well into 4/4 time signatures.

Lyrical. Some of his stuff reminds me of stream-of-consciousness. I don't think I've ever seen musical stream-of-consciousness, except Discordance Axis and a few The Number Twelve songs.
