^ That's the most knowledgeable, sensible post in this thread so far. Thanks Neapolitan!

I agree the band name is memorable, and quite off-putting imo, but the album title, "Yesterday is....." is an improvement, and the music appeals to me a lot. I like the guy's voice, the straightforward guitar and the kind of deliberately artless lyrics. Instead of listening to songs, it's like listening to a guy ruminating about his life. So thanks very much - I'm currently enjoying the second track:-

"Oh how rude of me to bring my thoughts into your bedroom.
Is it condescending to be so scared I might hurt you?"


Not many people sing things like that, afaik, but that's more what I expected emo to be: a kind of endless, convoluted, crippling self-analysis. Great Stuff!
