15.3.12

All Hail Ex-lives

No doubt this is my favorite album thus far in 2012. I don't see a change in opinion on the horizon.

I'll be honest, I'm far too lazy to try to critique this track by track. Plus, I haven't found anything bad to say yet and I'm lacking in positive adjectives.
I heard 'Underwater Bimbos from Outerspace' first, well I saw the video. I was immediately forced to start a circle pit in my kitchen with my two dogs and two cats. Shit got real real. I broke a dish. If you can imagine the feeling Amelia Earhart had as she vanished into the abyss, that is only about half of how frightened I felt. "I want to be dead with my friends. " That's the opening line of the song and surely the most talked about lyric that I've read so far.
You know what? Fuck it. My review will never match up to Patton Oswalt's. In summation, I think I have begun having heart palpitations since I heard this record. It makes me sick, literally.
