I've been too goddamn busy working at a moving company for 40+ hours a week to get my internet video fix during the week and it's made me cranky, I constantly crack jokes there about how I'm going to have to go home and beat my dog to relieve the stress that job instills in me.
Nah, I kinda like it, it's a job where I can talk and laugh with my coworkers or listen to my iPod as I work, which beats the hell out of standing silently at a cash register anytime you're not putting on your biggest fake smile and spouting out a cheesy-ass one cent greeting to a customer.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm definitely a people person, but it's so much more fun and satisfying when you can have real, relaxed conversation as opposed to just a quick 30 second blurb of talking.
I'll be done with it and headed back to school in another week and a half though, so even if the work sucked it wouldn't be a big deal, haha.
Anyway, sweet sift there. It reminds me that I am not listening to enough Foo Fighters, because the stuff I had on my computer had unreasonably low bitrate (96 kbps or whatever, wtf) so I deleted it, only to realize that I won't get a chance to re-download until the semester starts up again.
Ah well, I'll get a chance sometime.

How did this not sift? Now I've got to go kick my dog once for every single view on this video that wasn't an upvote. YOU MAKE ME DO THIS, VIDEOSIFT.

Also, what's it like living in Japan?
In reply to this comment by JAPR:
the pillows, Asian Kung-fu Generation, Ellegarden, etc. I just saw Ellegarden at Kyouto Taisakusen, it was SO FUCKING GOOD. I'm not sure how to describe it other than I've never been to such an intense concert.
Yeah, I love the acoustic songs! Stare at the Sun acoustic is reallllly tight too. I wish they'd go back to their roots a bit though and stop trying to be artsy with the whole elements theme going on. Nothing good ever comes from being artsy. .____.

Which Japanese bands? I'm more or less slowly turning into a weaboo anyway
Yeah, I love Melting Point of Wax, So Strange I Remember You especially as well as virtually anything on Vheissu. I&II was fairly good, thought they captured water brilliantly, Night Diving especially with the way they conveyed dripping water, and the tranquility of deep sea diving. Fire, eh not so much. Could see they were going for a sense of chaos and distortion but just didn't feel like it came together melodically, Flame Deluge was excellent though. Agree Red Sky EP was excellent, especially their acoustic renditions, particularly Of Dust and Nations, really wish they'd do more of them.
In reply to this comment by JAPR:
Yeah, I've heard a few of the songs, but haven't really gotten around to checking it out fully, for some reason. Been too busy with new releases from my favorite Japanese bands, I guess. I thought Alchemy Index vols. I and II was pretty solid, with some tight songs, but definitely not quite up to par with the other stuff. Still, "not up to par with the other stuff" still translates to "pretty damn good," so I can't really complain too much in that department.
I wish they had a music video for T&C, A Torch to End All Torches, Melting Point of Wax, or So Strange I Remember you, because it's always hard to find truly good live videos of songs like that. I was very surprised to see them release Red Sky on that EP thing, but totally dug the coupling tracks.

Heh, yeah it was a bit of a giveaway before, now it's more subtle
Reminds me, I still gotta sift that song too
Sample the album on their myspace if you want, it's not anything groundbreaking by all means but still a solid album all around. Not nearly as good as Vheissu but still, have to give them props for branching out and experimenting with different styles.

You're wildly unpopular. This pleases legacy.
