Do it.

About 10 seconds into that first song, I figured out exactly why you like this band. Nothing beats a hot chick who can scream with the best of em', as far as Jeremys are concerned.

I've never been much for the scream-o. Though, I did like the second song alright (no screaming), and the paint idea is awesome.

Also, my Aunt must be able to hear my every want and desire because she had a copy of Northern Lights waiting for me when I went to see her this weekend.

Can't put it down.

Can't wait until Wednesday.

1) She's not hot. She's had to do a lot of heroin to look like that. I don't care how "Christian" they claim to be.
2) Don't "do it."
3) The second song is actually tolerable. Tolerable.

I started to wonder about their godliness half way through that first song. Is there a lot of hardcore screaming Jesus music?

Shell, I'm surprised you didn't know that 99% of screaming awful bands out there aren't really in league with Satan at all. Can't you see Jesus rocking the fuck out to Flyleaf? Oh, if you want a sense of how brilliant their lead singer is, check out their Wikipedia article. I love what she has to say about whether or not they're a Christian band.

Of course, 99% of lead singers in bands are that stupid, so I don't know why I'm singling her out. She looks like a Mogwai to me, though. Just sayin.

Are we doing Golden Compass on Friday? Please? Dinner before? Then I have to study for the GRE...again.

I can't say I spend much time listening to/reading up on/having any interaction at all with screaming bands. Like I said in the first comment, just not that into the scream-o RAWR thing.

And no, had no clue they were all Jesus bands too.

Perhaps its not the most eloquent explaination, but I think the Christian Plumber argument could have been worse.

Maybe it was the valley-girlish delivery Lauren gave when she read it to me that pushed it over the edge for me. I have to admit that.
