One of my other favorite bands I "discovered" this year (late to the party, as usual) is Against Me! (Excalmation Point included!) I figured what with the lawsuit and such, I might as well continue my anti-establishment theme in style...
Up first, the most beautiful and poetic and insightful song of love lost between an anarchist and a hippie communist liberal. Funny as hell, nicely observed, and GREAT to drink big pints to. To quote another Against Me! songtitle, "Pints of Guiness Make You Strong."
Nothing makes you feel better than hearing about other people's problems, so why not follow it up with another great one from them, "Problems".
Then Just for Fun' we'll wrap it up with their single from their latest (and greatest) album "New Wave" with their song "Thrash Unreal" about a slightly aged, slightly used party girl who "still hears the rebel yell just as loud as it was in 1983"... good stuff.
Download: Against Me! "Baby, I'm an Anarchist"
Download: Against Me! "Problems"
Download: Against Me! "Thrash Unreal"
Again, if you like the intelligent Nihilism, go see them live (we just saw them open for Foo Fighters at MSG!) or buy their amazing albums!
Enjoy!
