Say No to Being Cool: Say Yes to Being Happy

If you have nothing better to do, if anguish has nothing special to offer you right now, if you can't expect anything more than spending a half-hour in a state of utterly ordinary serenity, I recommend giving this little record a listen.

If the cover does not lead you astray and makes you expect to find yourself in front of a new technicolor version of "In the Court of the Crimson King" by King Crimson or at least "Acidi e Basi" by Bluvertigo, I recommend giving this little record a listen.

I did.

I endured an intense half hour of very light listening to a cross between the Flaming Lips (it was Clouds Taste Metallic), Belle & Sebastian (it was The Boy with the Arab Strap), and the bands of Elephant 6, and now I find myself obsessively reading chapter 4 of my favorite book, "The Origins of Existential Nihilism," with Nocturnal Emissions in the background, trying to forget and recover from the trauma.

If you don't see me around here anymore, know that I didn't make it...
