Geoff Rickly discusses influential songIn a new article, Geoff Rickly discusses the meaning behind the song "Understanding in a Car Crash," as well as some of the other aspects of the album "Full Collapse." This article can be read here: http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/the_story_behind_understanding_in_a_car_crash_thursday_geoff_rickly
For me, one of the interesting parts of the article is the discussion of the song "Cross Out the Eyes."
From the article: "Also, the song “Cross Out The Eyes” where secretly, that song was about obliterating the whole authorial me-me-me-this-is-about-me [stance]. We wanted to make a record that was for a community, that engaged a community and wasn't about one person’s concerns but about a cultural concern."

My first wallpaper dedicated to my favorite band for the past 5 years, Thursday. This is sort of based off of the video for their song Ladies and Gentlemen: My Brother, The Failure. I tried to add a cockroach instead of a fly but I couldn't stand to look at the stock photos for more than 6 seconds without gagging. Heh, I feel like such a lame-o! >.>

This is very well done.
Colour scheme is awesome and the typography just superb!

~fartoolate Dec 11, 2008

Thank you so much. I kind of wanted someone's opinion on something though; do you think I should add more small letters coming out of the typewriter and rising to meet the word thursday?

~archaii Dec 11, 2008 Student Writer

Yeah that might make the wallpaper more streamlined rather than the random scattered look it has at the moment.

~fartoolate Dec 11, 2008

thanks for the feedback.

hmm... I think I might keep it how it is...
