The grey remains of a friendship scarred
It’s not new to me, but lately I keep coming back to the Shins’ album Chutes Too Narrow. I’m generally a pretty mainstream kind of guy, so I’m not trying to claim any special indie cred or anything, but I like every song on that album a whole lot more than any of the (really decent) songs that have floated around since the band got really popular.
I’ve also been listening to a lot of Avenged Sevenfold’s City of Evil… go figure. Also, Rise Against’s The Sufferer and the Witness.
