    I believe it's official: Because Of The Times is the album of the year.

    Why?

    Because 3 minutes into "My Party" and what do I hear?

    Cowbell.

    Album of the year, folks.

    I am. Haha. Did you get your tickets for Explosions In The Sky? I missed out, and it sold out.
    Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys?

    I must admit this is my fav KOL album by far. The start of the album is quite dark and I really like it. The sreaming of the second track caught me off guard though!

    FROM ROLLING STONE---

    And “Arizona?”

    “I can’t really get into this one,” Caleb sighs. “This one’s kind of bad. I love the desert and I hold Arizona close to my heart, but me and Nathan went there and we had quite a few different substances, and we decided to go to this brothel. I guess I am telling you, aren’t I? This is a real heartbreaker.

    “We walked in and I looked around and there was one young girl who was so beautiful that all I could think was, ‘What happened in her life that could bring her here?’ as opposed to, ‘Yeah! I’ll take that one!”

    So you left?

    “No, I took an ugly one. I knew how she ended up there.”

    I'm all about hard copy.

    Nothing beats it and if the music is good and good to me, I have no issue with paying for it.

    It's the very least I can do.

    I just picked up tickets to the Chicago show. So far my most anticipated show of the year.
