i think i'll be deaf by age 40

I should probably put the headphones down and get a real job. I should also not get drunk and listen to Modest Mouse. You should. I've done it quite a few times before and Mr. Brock and Co. always sugarcoat every morbidly intuitive lyric with the sweetest guitar licks this side of Steely Dan. Yeah, I said it, Steely Dan. They sucked cuz they quit playing live after one album. And so do the Beatles. Quitters. Thank you Modest Mouse for sweeping the dusty corners of everyday universe, and before dumping the crumbs and dust bunnies in the trash, telling us how you love and hate all those stupid little life "functions". Everyday drib-drab is boring, unless you growl like Brock. Thank you for constantly restoring my faith in the power of music.
