Recently downloaded "lift your skinny fists like antennas to heaven"... Needless to say it was the beginning of a musical affair and a change in opinion on the genre as a whole.

Thoughts on getting "We are trapped in the belly of this horrible machine, and the machine is bleeding to death" tattooed on my back? This is something I'm really considering and Radiohead tattoos are too cliche.

I've only heard Lift Your Skinny Fists, but I have to agree with some other posters that they seem dreadfully boring.

I'm willing t give them another chance I suppose, but if that truly is the best they have to offer, I'm not very hopeful.

Lift Your Skinny Fists is great, but their best tracks are "Blaise Bailey Finnegan III" (from the Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada EP) and "Rockets Fall on Rocket Falls" (from Yanqui U.X.O.) Slow Riot is still the best place to start with them, though.

you also disliked the monks, so your opinion is worthless.

And what about the opinions of the several other people who said the same thing? Surely at least one of them likes The Monks.

That would be in my top 5 for best thing ever if you did so.
Do it before I'm old enough to.

I still haven't heard this band. I remember not being able to find "lift your skinny fists" anywhere.
