My mistake. I searched the forums to make sure this thread wasn't already created before I posted this but didn't find one.

"The Carpal Tunnel Of Love" by Fall Out Boy is a wonderful song.

In the Aeroplane over the Sea- Neutral Milk Hotel.

Well, I've been putting myself through this album alot lately and each time it gets just a little bit better. Some tracks (oh comely, two headed boy pt. 2, King of Carrot flowers pts. 2-3) are still very hard to get through though.

It's an acquired taste... I guess. I always thought they were just a likable band. Huh.

To me they've always been a very pedestrian band. Definitely not unlikable, objectively speaking, but a tad bit on the *yawn* side.

I've always thought this too, exactly. But in the past few years I've taken a liking for a few of their albums.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.

I find their music emotionally evocative. I can dig it.

Say what you will, but Stipe writes good lyrics, Buck is an underrated guitarist, and Bill and Mike are a tight rhythm section. Now that Bill's a farmer, well, **** it.

I agree with everything you say here, which would make my opinion just that, my opinion.

I like this song a lot. I do not like No Doubt or Gwen Stefani otherwise.
