That said, I am in love with the new Dinosaur Jr. album 'Plans' right now.
Also listening to Desaparacidos (one of Conor Oberst's bands) quite a lot at the moment.
Fuccccck yeahhhh!! I had bought a USED copy of Desaparecidos' album Read Music/Speak Spanish way back before I had even gotten into Bright Eyes. I had read a good review and was surprised to find a used copy of it that I had to snag it up. While Bright Eyes music can put you to sleep or make you wanna weep, Desapericdos music makes you want to yell "**** you!" to the system. It is essentially a concept album about middle class America and how urban sprawl and consumerism have ****ed up our country.

They're building drug stores now until none remains
I've been driving now for 100 blocks
Saw 50 Kum and Go's, 60 parking lots."
